LOOK: This new Nike sneaker drop gives off major ‘Squid Game’ vibes
Find Korean motifs on this Air Force 1 Hangul Day
Do you still have the “Squid Game” fever? Well, let this new drop from Nike heat you up more with the release of Air Force 1 Hangul Day.
Just like the fans of the phenomenal series, the Air Force 1 Hangul Day—coming in black and white colorways—celebrates the language and linguistics of South Korea. The 1980s latest iteration involves graphic characters, consonants, and vowels from the Hangul alphabet that can be found on the upper while the Swoosh on the side stays subtlely stitched with an understated gradient of color.
Completing the black upper’s design are geometric shapes like triangles, squares, and circles which will truly remind you of the motifs used in the series. This patterning represents the way the mouth moves when key characters are pronounced. A clean white outsole and matching liner finishes off the style.
