G-Dragon's fashion imprint PEACEMINUSONE works with Nike to add a new tonal iteration of the Kwondo 1 sneaker model with the latest Panda palette. It takes on a monochromatic update with hints of black and white detailing the whole shoe.
Starting at the base foundation is a clean premium white leather material, which is the same found on the inaugural iteration released. It now updates the overlaying details with black to add some tonal contrast throughout the upper and the classic brogue detailing. There are also more embroidery accents that come in the form of the PEACEMINUSONE daily motif -- this can be found at the back, the sheaths that cover the lacing system by the forefoot, branded insoles, and aglets.
