With the 2026 FIFA World Cup fast approaching, the lines between performance pitch wear and everyday lifestyle sneakers are being completely erased. Leading the charge is Nike with their innovative CryoShot silhouette—a model that takes legendary football boots and encases their spikes in a clear rubber block, creating a standard sneaker fit. To celebrate the global tournament, Nike has tapped a heavy-hitting roster of international collaborators to represent their home countries. Handling design duties for South Korea is none other than G-DRAGON and his PEACEMINUSONE brand, who are breathing fresh life into one of the Swoosh’s most beloved archival boots.

For this massive global collection, G-DRAGON chose to resurrect the Nike CTR360. Though the boot has long been shelved by the brand, it is still widely regarded by football purists as one of the best and most comfortable performance models Nike has ever produced. The PeaceMinusOne interpretation honors that legacy while injecting a heavy dose of contemporary streetwear flair.

The most notable update is the material overhaul. The PEACEMINUSONE x Nike CryoShot swaps out the standard synthetic upper materials favored for on-pitch performance, replacing them entirely with natural fibers. The paneling has also been slightly modified to better suit its new lifestyle purpose. Visually, the sneaker is incredibly clean, featuring a soft “Natural” off-white shade across the base. Striking pops of “University Red” highlight the Swooshes and the encased cleat tips visible through the translucent rubber sole block.

G-DRAGON South Korean homage is just one piece of a massive international puzzle. The Nike CryoShot World Cup collection reads like a who’s who of global fashion influence. Alongside PEACEMINUSONE, fans can expect unique country-specific designs from Patta (Netherlands), Virgil Abloh (USA), Jacquemus (France), Nocta (Canada), Palace (England), and Slawn (Nigeria).

By transforming a revered football boot into a highly wearable piece of streetwear, G-DRAGON continues to prove his status as a visionary collaborator. The PEACEMINUSONE x Nike CryoShot not only celebrates South Korean pride on a global stage but also perfectly captures the soaring trend of “bloke core” and football-inspired fashion heading into the Summer.
