G-Dragon's Nike Cryoshot CTR360: A Football Boot Frozen for the Street

The Nike Cryoshot CTR360 Maestri II x PEACEMINUSONE is G-Dragon's take on a discontinued Nike football boot, rebuilt for the street by sealing its studs inside a clear rubber outsole. Made for South Korea as part of Nike's X2 collection for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, it turns a pitch-bred control boot into a vintage-toned lifestyle shoe in Natural and University Red.

The Nike Cryoshot CTR360 Maestri II x G-Dragon PEACEMINUSONE 'Natural / University Red', style code HQ1460-100, is live now alongside the wider Nike range at PUSHAS, and every pair is authenticated by hand.

What the Cryoshot is

Nike describes the Cryoshot collection as classic boots pulled from the vault and made for everyday wear. The trick is in the sole. Instead of a bladed or studded plate built for grass, the original stud configuration is encased in a flat, translucent rubber unit, so you can still see the boot's football hardware suspended underneath while walking on pavement. The effect reads like a football boot frozen in ice, which is where the name earns its meaning.

The Cryoshot sits at the centre of Nike's X2 collection, which paired seven creative voices with their national football teams ahead of the 2026 World Cup. PEACEMINUSONE took South Korea, and G-Dragon built his pair on the CTR360 Maestri II.

Design and materials

The original CTR360 was a synthetic, performance-first boot built around ball control. G-Dragon's version replaces those on-pitch synthetics with a soft cream upper finished in a distressed suede, deliberately scuffed so the shoe looks lived in straight out of the box. University Red picks out the Swoosh and accents across the upper, giving the pale base a clean, sporting contrast.

Underneath, the midsole carries a yellowed tone that replicates age, fading into the icy translucent outsole where the enclosed studs sit. That aged finish is the key to the whole shoe. It connects the pair to the boots people remember from the early 2010s rather than presenting it as something box-fresh and clinical. PEACEMINUSONE branding completes the look, keeping the collaboration clear without crowding the upper.

The colourway is led by Natural, University Red and University Gold.

The CTR360 Maestri II and G-Dragon's Nike story

The CTR360 Maestri II was one of Nike Football's control-focused models. It has long since been discontinued, which is exactly why it suits the Cryoshot treatment.

G-Dragon's relationship with Nike runs deep. Before this, PEACEMINUSONE was known at Nike for its Air Force 1 "Para-noise" releases. In December 2021 came the Kwondo 1, a taekwondo-inspired shoe carrying the label's daisy logo, which marked a new direction beyond the Air Force 1. The Cryoshot moves the partnership onto the football pitch, tied to his home country's national team.

The shoe also belongs to a wider PEACEMINUSONE capsule for South Korea titled "Tigers of Asia," which included a pre-match jersey, a track jacket and Nike Tech Fleece. The Cryoshot arrived first through PEACEMINUSONE's own channels on 11 June 2026, then released through Nike SNKRS and select retailers on 16 June 2026.

How it fits and wears

The whole point of the Cryoshot concept is that a boot becomes a shoe you can live in. The clear outsole replaces the studs as your contact with the ground, and the suede-finish upper swaps the stiff synthetics of a match-day boot for something softer.

Nike has not published specific sizing notes for the Cryoshot, and wearer feedback on this pair is still limited. Check your measurements against a trusted size chart before you choose.

How to style it

This is a football shoe, and it looks best when you lean into that. A vintage or retro football shirt with relaxed denim or track pants plays directly to its heritage. The cream and red palette also suits neutral tailoring: wide trousers in stone, ecru or charcoal let the translucent sole and scuffed upper do the talking. Keep socks white or cream to hold the aged tone, and let the red Swoosh be the one accent colour in the outfit.
