In Korea, the bank holidays Hangul Day is celebrated annually on 9 October. Hangul Day, also known as Hangeulnal, is a day to celebrate the introduction of the Korean script system. To honor this celebration, Nike will release the WMNS exclusive Nike Air Max 1 'Hangul Day'.

In recent years, Nike has increasingly unveiled sneakers to commemorate the Korean holiday. In 2021, they introduced the Air Force 1 edition, followed by a Hangul-themed Air Max 97 in 2022. And now, they're gearing up for the second release of the Air Max 1 'Hangul Day'.
The forthcoming Air Max features a white mesh foundation accompanied by brown overlays. These overlays, crafted from robust suede, impart an added dimension to the sneaker's aesthetics. The midsole, adorned in a creamy hue, contributes to a vintage appearance. Notably, Korean characters are showcased on the insoles and etched onto the heel tab, serving as an additional nod to the holiday.
