Sporty Kicks to Get You Summer-Ready

Sneakers have always been our closet staple that is comfortable to rock your workout session and add a sporty edge to any outfit. With the summer schedule packed with outdoor fun coming up, here are five new collections that you wouldn’t want to miss – all housed under one roof at the fashion hub of Harbour City!

Descente – The all-round contender

This season, Japanese sportswear label Descente has released three new collections that cover it all – from elevating your athleisure wear to a pair that you’d be dying to show off during your HIIT session.

The Running collection is your trusty pair to enjoy the morning jogs along the harbor. Pair your graphic tee and joggers look with the Studio collection to achieve that effortless casual look that is perfect for running errands. For your gym session, the Training collection is here to keep you motivated on the tredmills. Each range comes with its lineup of jackets, sports bras, and more to complete the looks.

FILA FUSION – Throwback to the ‘90s

The ‘90s are back, which means the Dad shoes are too. FILA FUSION’s Fila Raccoon Sneakers – inspired by the archival look of FILA Ancerus, now come in new colorways. The massive sole and thick upper are definitely statement-making.

With Fila’s spotlight on the street skateboarding scene from the ‘90s this summer, the Fila Bank Sneakers featuring wavy webbing and exposed size tag is yet another style to give that golden era a nod.

Onitsuka Tiger – Beach day companions

Nothing soothes our mind better than the sound of gentle lapping waves of the ocean. Spend a relaxing afternoon on the beach as you watch the sun slowly set below the horizon.

Revamped as a slip-on version, the Mexico 66 Sabot by Onitsuka Tiger has retained the timeless look of the iconic design and topped that with excellent breathability to go perfectly with your beachwear. The color combination of cream and blue of course can’t go wrong, but do venture out to the colorful iterations including neon yellow for a pop of color!

On days that you yearn for a hike before taking a dip in the ocean, it’s going to be between the Ohbori Strap and the Rebilac Sandals. The hybrid sandals both come with hook-and-loop straps and elastic heel bands for easy access. The Rebilac style’s open mesh keeps your feet cool on the trail while protecting your toes.  

PUMA – Fashion staple

A true staple of them all – you just can’t go wrong with a classic pair of white sneakers.

PUMA’s latest addition to the California family – the CA Pro Classic plays on the old meets new vibe and is ready to take your high street look to the next level.

The sleek, archive-inspired silhouette with a subtly platformed sole is a nice touch for those who need a little height boost, or just to keep those pleated wide-leg pants from dragging when you walk. The signature PUMA Formstrip on the side also comes in black if the all white look is still a bit intimidating for you.

SKECHERS – Head for the hills

Be it a breezy leisurely stroll or an intense sweat sesh, make the best of the sunny weather as you get your steps in and your heart pumping.

The Go Run Trail Altitude line by SKECHERS is designed with both hiking novices and enthusiasts in mind. The ultra-light midsole cushioning makes the shoes completely trail-ready as you walk up and down the rugged terrain.

Another pair to consider would be the D’Lux Trail. The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole keeps your feet cool while the highly durable Goodyear® Performance outsole offers enhanced traction, stability and durability as you traverse the rocky trails. The silhouette also comes with a roomy comfort fit at toe and forefoot so you can take in that mountainous glory all day long.

No matter how you plan to soak in some summer rays, these newly launched sneakers definitely deserve serious attention as you spice up your sporty look!
