Hangul Day, also known as Korean Alphabet Day is a national Korean commemorative day that marks the invention and proclamation of Hangul, the Korean alphabet, by the 15th-century Korean King Sejong the Great. To commemorate this Koren holiday, Nike is set to drop the Nike Cortez Hangul Day. The Nike Cortez Hangul Day comes dressed in a Dark Brown suede upper contrasted by the Sail hits on the Swoosh branding, tongue, inner lining, and contrasting stitching. More hits of Dark Brown appear on the tongue labels as well as on the stripe running across the two-tone midsole. Further celebrating “Hangul Day,” the sneaker comes with special features on the insoles, heel tab, and the custom hangtag.
