Nike has been known to honor specific countries and cities with their very own sneakers and South Korea has certainly been the recipient of some dope kicks. Of course, a couple of years ago a "South Korea" Air Jordan 3 was released that turned out to be quite limited. Now, South Korea will be getting its very own Nike Air Force 1 Low and the shoe has plenty of references to its country of origin.
As you can see from the official images below, the shoe has a white leather upper while the Nike swooshes have tiger print. This theme is replicated on the tongue which featured the face of a tiger. From there, the left shoe has a red outline around the swoosh while the outsole and laces also get the red treatment. On the right sneaker, red is swapped out for blue. Finally, the logo on the South Korean flag is placed on the back heel which helps put the finishing touches on the overall theme of the shoe.
A release date has yet to be determined so stay tuned for updates as we will be sure to bring them to you.
