G-Dragon just turned the South Korea World Cup kit into a fashion statement. His Nike x Peaceminusone Tigers of Asia collaboration puts a purple, flower-covered jersey on the national team and instantly recasts the G-Dragon World Cup jersey as a streetwear flex, not just a uniform.
For K-pop fans tuning into the 2026 World Cup, those floral kits and daisy jackets were never just random styling. Nike tapped G-Dragon and his label Peaceminusone to represent Korea in a seven-team designer project, and the collab is now dropping through Nike SNKRS and select retailers.
Inside G-Dragon’s World Cup Jersey for Korea
Soccer kits have been drifting into streetwear for years, but this World Cup finally puts a K-pop creative director in charge. Nike, the Korea Football Association and G-Dragon’s Peaceminusone built the Tigers of Asia capsule, pairing KFA’s tiger identity with his flower motif so the team walks out looking like a fashion collaboration.
The away jersey is where that idea peaks. For the first time, Korea plays in a purple palette covered in an all-over floral print that Nike calls the “energy of a blooming flower,” while tiger details keep the “Tigers of Asia” story clear and navy numbers replace pastel blue so they read cleanly from the stands.
The Peaceminusone Flower and Streetwear Details
At the center of it all is G-Dragon’s favorite flower, long used as the emblem of Peaceminusone. Described as a chrysanthemum in Korean reports and a daisy in fashion pieces, the white-and-yellow bloom sits on the back of national-team gear, reworked with pink and sky blue embroidery that mirrors the Korean flag.
Nike’s swoosh turns into tiger teeth around the flower, a small graphic that locks in the “Tigers of Asia” nickname. On the pitch, warmup T-shirts from the capsule appeared before the Czech Republic match, the navy jerseys showed up against Mexico, and a daisy-pattern jacket from the line quickly attracted attention on social media.
From Pitch to Street: How to Get G-Dragon’s Tigers of Asia Drop
The hero piece off the pitch is the Cryoshot, which reimagines a classic Nike CTR360 boot as an everyday sneaker. A rubber outsole wraps the studs so the shoe keeps a football silhouette while working with daily fits, and it is described as the item drawing the most attention in the capsule.
For fans who want the same look as defender Kim Min-jae in warmups, the timing is clear. The Tigers of Asia collection officially launches Tuesday at 10 a.m. through Nike SNKRS and select retailers, with Korea the only Asian team in Nike’s seven-country designer lineup.
As the World Cup continues in North America, every Korea kickoff doubles as a runway moment for this G-Dragon World Cup jersey and its matching pieces. For K-pop fans and sneakerheads in the United States, the flex is wearing the same purple florals, tiger-teeth swoosh and daisy jacket they see on screen, letting a national-team kit live in daily outfits long after the tournament.
