While enjoying his visit to Japan after a long time, NCT 127's Japanese member, Yuta, took some time to upload photos of his daily life there to his personal Instagram (@yuu_taa_1026).
After almost a month in Japan, on February 25, 2022, he posted three photos of him flashing his new red shoes. In addition to that, Yuta wrote in the caption:
"#louisvuitton #virgilabloh #LVMenSS22
gift from @louisvuitton."
He also tagged Louis Vuitton and Virgil Abloh's Instagram accounts on the photo he posted.
The shoe in his photos is called "Air Force 1", designed by the late LV artistic director Virgil Abloh for his collaboration with Louis Vuitton x Nike Air.
Based on this article, the Air Force 1 combines the elegant touch of a high fashion brand with the tradition and relevance of a sportswear brand. Air Force 1 is also part of Virgil’s Spring 2022 Men’s Collection.
More to that information, the high fashion shoes were in auction for a good cause. Two hundred pairs of Air Force 1 were being auctioned in Sotheby from January 26th to February 8th. All revenues from the auction go to Virgil’s “POST-MODERN” Scholarship Fund (Virgil Abloh’s Fashion Scholarship Fund for Black students charity).
Fans are excited about the fact that Yuta received the high fashion shoes as a gift.
