Last month, New Balance dropped a series of city exclusive colourways of their 991 V2 silhouette. Each pair is regional specific, like the “Yellow” pair I’m reviewing today which was an Asia-Pacific exclusive sold only in Melbourne and Seoul. Check out my in-depth review and on feet look and let me know which of this pack was your fave!
To celebrate the opening of their newest flagship store in South Korea, Kith dropped this special edition Asics Gel-Lyte III “Seoul”, drawing inspiration from the South Korean flag. Crafted using premium suedes, this pair has a very luxurious look and feel to it. Check out my detailed review and breakdown and let me know how you feel about them down below!
Part of Nike’s World Make series, this pair of the Air Max 1 ’86 represents Korea, and is crafted using a unique mix of materials as a nod to this fashion hub. Featuring layers of tumbled leather, canvas and hemp-like textiles, these are an interesting spin on Nike’s “Big Bubble” version of the Air Max 1. Watch my review to learn more!
Korean-based brand, Kasina, collaborated with Nike last month to release two colourways of the Air Max 1. Inspired by Won-Ang, this is the cultural tradition of gifting wood carved ducks to the couple on their wedding. The two pairs feature a mix of materials like leather, suede, faux pony hair, and more. Check out my review to get a closer look and let me know what you think down below!

Pharrell Williams and Adidas are back with another drop of the Hu NMD. My latest review covers the “Dash Green” colourway, which features an open mesh upper with Korean characters along with a vintage looking painted Boost midsole. Check out my video for a closer look and a big thanks to Adidas Canada for sending me this pair!
One of the most anticipated shoes from the Nike On Air Collection, Gwang Shin’s Air Max 97 represents the busy neon lit streets of his home city, Seoul. Taking an all black Air Max 97 with splashes of red, blue and white, along with hits of 3M, these are definitely a head turner. Check out my in-depth review to learn more!
