This is the most boring lazy Nike job I could imagine. Absolutely no input or effort into making anything special for a Korea shirt. Korea fans deserve so much more than this. They could have used just a bit more imagination.
I thought I would get one just to add to the collection and seeing it available in a shop as world cup is around, I thought I will take the opportunity to get hold of one. But I wished it could have looked better.
The crest is about the only thing cool about this shirt.
There are no other features of any note from the front.
The sleeves are vapour template norm.
Just about the only other feature is at the back of the collar showing a Korean symbol.
Otherwise no features. If you want minimalism then it could appeal, it is a nice colour. The material is somewhat softer and stretchier than the other world cup Nike shirts I have seen like Brazil, Portugal etc. It is also sized smaller than the other shirts which is great if you are skinny and want a snuggier fit. Why it was sized smaller? Is it Asian sizing? I went to Korea recently and the people there are not much smaller than western people on average.
I was going to buy this while in Korea but I found it was priced incredibly high in the shops. This fan version costs 135000 KRW that is around 125 USD which is around the price for a player's version. Are you mad? And Nike make a rubbish designed shirt to rip off the passionate Korean fans. I hope they can do a better design next time or Korea move to a different brand who can come up with a more imaginative design. May be Korea can switch to home brand FILA who can do a super design worthy for the Taeguk Tiger Warriors.
