"Hey, Cocoon and Meenoi here. We've just got a package from SNKRS. And we're going to unbox these new sneakers in front of you guys!"

"Yeah, let's start unboxing! The package looks like a holiday gift box! I think this package might look unfamiliar to some international sneakerheads. Hmm, you could say that. Shall we open it now? Okay, let's open the box. So the box itself is really eye-catching."

"Dazzling, even. I'll open it. The first thing that has grabbed my attention is, this fur right here, it looks just like a Mandarin duck. It feels so irresistibly soft, you know what I mean?"

"And there's a logo right here. Oh, is this the key ring? You can find 'Kasina' engraved on the back. This clear color only adds to its charm. Oh, I think this looks so fabulous."

"We could clip this on some car keys, right? And, on the sole here there's another Mandarin duck. There's a good reason they're also known as lovebirds. That's why people have a pair of duck carvings..."

"At their wedding ceremonies. Oh, like a blessing? Yeah, to love and cherish each other, for all eternity. You told me once that Kasina is more than just a brand, right? Kasina is like, it's a part of my school life, I think."

"I can't imagine myself without Kasina, you know? It's more than just a brand store, it's an icon. It brings back old memories. Do you wanna try them on? Sure."

"Let's try them on. They look cuter than I thought. And they look even cuter on my feet. Air Max, they’ve nailed the comfort aspect. Totally. Can't wear any other shoes if you're already hooked on Air Max."

"This looks so good with your outfit today. Actually, it's a thought-out look. Oh, really? Whenever I go to Kasina, you always bump into some guys with these big, roomy cargo pants with Nike shoes, like this."

"I really love those colors. I thought it all out before getting out of bed this morning. I wondered, how could I reinvent the look of those Kasina guys? How do I look? I would say, it's more like a futuristic version of a Kasina original."

"I think young people that are into fashion would wear them like this. Let's take a look at the key ring. It looks really great worn as an accessory, whether you wear the shoes or not."

"When you pair them with a bag, it looks especially stylish. And the Mandarin duck really completes the style. So how did you like it?"

"As a big fan of Nike, and as person who's been collecting Nike sneakers for a long time, I feel really proud that Kasina took inspiration from the Mandarin duck and used it for collaboration with Nike."

"It really shows how much they honor our heritage and culture. And, dare I say it, historic even."

"It's Meenoi and Cocoon here. We've shared our moment of unboxing the Kasina Air Max 1. We were so excited to take a look at Air Max 1..."

"Before they get released in the market. They'll be available on SNKRS soon. Stay tuned."
