From an intense workout to toning down an otherwise too dressy outfit, a comfortable pair of sneakers brings so much versatility into your wardrobe. With the Lunar New Year being just a matter of weeks away, it’s time to explore what the sneaker scene has to offer, to bring some extra sporty elements to your New Year’s look.
Adventures await
Your three-day CNY celebrations are bound to be filled with scrumptious dishes and indulgent treats, don’t forget to squeeze in a hike or two to burn off those extra calories. As a bonus, you’ll be in awe of the tranquility this city has to offer too.
National Geographic Apparel’s latest VANGUARD GTX sneakers are made for the adventurous souls out there to get you through your next urban expedition. With performance in mind, the shoes are made with highly functional GORE-TEX materials that provide excellent breathability and waterproof features. The exclusive, durable Vibram Megagrip outsoles, on the other hand, offer unmatched grip properties on both dry and wet terrains, so you are always prepared to explore any unpaved tracks and challenging trails.
Retro meets modern
Nothing beats a good old pair of classic sneakers. Timeless and totally iconic, PUMA’s Suede Classic XXI is making its grand comeback!
The signature suede low-top silhouette features a full suede upper as a much-needed touch for the cooler months. Ever since the style debuted in 1968, it’s been a game-changing pair ever since. The classic silhouette has been seen on fashion icons of every generation. This year’s installment is reinterpreted by local singer MC Cheung. The clean lines are complemented by the signature stripes of yet another iconic piece – the T7 Men’s Track Jacket and Pants. Not to mention, the black and white combo streamlines the entire look.
Anime lovers rejoice
Fan-favorite characters from Japanese manga series One Piece are back! First launched in 2019, SKETCHERS’ collaboration with One Piece has been one of the most highly sought-after collections and this year’s will be no exception.
The Global Jogger, Stamina V2, and D’Lites 4.0 collections are reimagined with instantly recognizable colorways inspired by the four main characters from the anime, namely Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, and Usopp.
With the resemblance of a chunky dad shoe, the D’Lites 4.0 Lace Up Jogger features air-cooled memory foam insoles to provide your feet with a snug, supportive fit. The revamped Stamina V2 in green, meanwhile, absorbs impact with high-rebound cushioning.
Subtle radiance
Loaded with modern zeitgeist and edgy stylishness, KENCY by GEOX features a cream and light taupe colorway to go with any color palette. The slight neutral take does not compromise any fashion impact though, as it sits atop a bold, elevated outsole for a height boost.
For those who love the colorway but in a more understated take, go for TABELYA, a casual-chic iteration that can be transitioned into your spring wardrobe effortlessly. Both equally comfortable to walk in, thanks to the outstanding cushioning effect by GEOX, you just can’t go wrong with either pair!
