COMME des GARÇONS PLAY released its latest sneaker collab with Converse

With the athleisure trend now comfortably settled into our everyday style, sneakers are a step in the right sartorial direction

by Sean Tham, Hidayah Idris & Shazrina Shamsudin  /   April 7, 2021

Streetwear is a trend that will probably be around for at least another decade – or more. After all, designer brands have been constantly pushing the trend and releasing new styles of designer sneakers time and again, with some even collaborating with major streetwear labels and style icons.

A prime example: the launch of three exciting and highly-coveted collabs by ASICS. And then there’s adidas and Prada’s collection which sees the latter’s reinterpretation of the adidas Superstar.

Even if you’re not a fan of streetwear, you simply can’t ignore sneakers. They are so versatile that they can be worn with almost anything. Here are 20 sneaker styles to suit everything from your casual Friday #ootd to a hearty weekend brunch with your girlfriends or partner.

COMME des GARÇONS PLAY released its latest sneaker collab with Converse
Converse x COMME des GARÇONS PLAY Jack Purcells, $220
image

It isn’t the first time COMME des GARÇONS has collaborated with American shoe company, Converse. In fact, it’s been 10 years since the two have collaborated on the Jack Purcell.

This year, both labels are back with new reiterations of the classic silhouette. The Japanese brand Comme des Garçons, helmed by avant-garde designer Rei Kawakubo, has introduced new designs to the line — and they make the perfect must-haves if you’re looking to elevate your everyday wear. The original classic silhouette remains, however, the shoe has been remastered for stability, comfort and fit with a cushioned sock liner and insole and a high traction herringbone rubber sole. The new sneakers will also sport the iconic oversized heart logos on a new shade of coloured canvas – Silver Filigree.

Available at Dover Street Market Singapore

ASICS x Kiko Kostadinov

Just when you thought ASICS was going to stop with its latest three collaborations — you thought wrong. This time, the label is partnering Kiko Kostadinov and have introduced four curated styles to the collection. Kiko Kostadinov is otherwise known as the London-based Bulgarian fashion designer and is the creative director of his eponymous label that’s centred around contemporary workwear. Here, Kiko has reimagined a series of ASICS footwear offerings that draw design inspiration from the concept of “Retro Futurism”. In this case, the collection dives into two categories, namely Future Tech and Sustainability which explores ASICS’ iconic silhouettes. The four styles include the HS1-S TARTHER™ BLAST ($189), HN1-S GEL-VENTURE™ 7 ($109), FN1-S GEL-NIMBUS™ 22 ($259) and FN2-S GEL-CONTEND™ 5 ($109).

Available in-store at ASICS and online at asics.com. Prices range from $109 to $259

ASICS x CARNIVAL GEL-KAYANO™ 5 360 Betta Splendens, $239
image

Since its epic success from its first collaboration back in 2019 — GEL-DS™ TRAINER OG “Muay Thai — ASICS has teamed up with CARNIVAL again to launch a reinterpretation of its classic silhouette that’s inspired by Thailand’s very own Siamese Fighting Fish.

Available at Limited Edt Vault @ 313 Somerset, Limited Edt Chambers and limitededt.com.

 

ASICS
ASICS x Andersson Bell GEL-1090™, $189
image

Next up on the list is none other than ASICS collaboration with South Korean fashion brand Andersson Bell. If you love the brand’s signature GEL-1090™ that was launched back in 2003, then you’ll be glad to know that this collection will see new colourways for you to choose from such as Black/Silver, Glacier Grey/Silver and White Orange. What many love about this sneaker is that it boasts a sporty and modern flair with striking, bold details that will instantly elevate any look.

Available at Limited Edt Vault @ 313 Somerset, Limited Edt Chambers and limitededt.com.

ASICS
ASICS X Vivienne Westwood GEL-KAYANO LTX 27, $339
image

Back by popular demand, ASICS has just released another collaboration with Vivienne Westwood. The collection is inspired by Vivienne Westwood and (Malcolm) McLaren’s controversial 1974 collection ‘SEX’.

Drawing strength from long-lasting quality of design and materials, the sharing of these design  philosophies between the two brands have formed the inspiration for this on-going design collaboration.

Within this collab, you can expect 3 different contrasting colourways to choose from including black, lilac and orange.

Available at ASICS.COM, ASICS Plaza Singapura, Vivienne Westwood Anglomania Store (Scotts Square), Dover Street Market.

adidas x Prada A+P LUNA ROSSA 21
image

When two of the most coveted brands in luxury and sportswear come together, you’d better sit up. This is the third time that Prada and Adidas are collaborating – the first, in December 2019, was an all-white Superstar sneaker and calf leather bowling bag set that quickly flew off the shelves, while the second, sees Prada’s reinterpretation of the adidas Superstar. This time, adidas brings its expertise into the world of Prada. Inspired by a blend of the new AC75 Luna Rossa boat as well as other Prada and adidas sneakers, the A+P LUNA ROSSA 21 sneaker brings a more futuristic feel that’s sleek, lightweight and functional.

Made with PRIMEGREEN — also known as a series of high-performance recycled materials — the sneaker delivers flexible and breathable support while preventing water from penetrating the silhouette. It’s also crafted for the sport of sailing and also features a perforated BOOST midsole that provides elevated protection, durability and freedom of movement to enhance your performance.

The new A+P LUNA ROSSA 21 will be available from 9 December 2020, at Prada boutiques at Marina Bay Sands and ION Orchard, and online on prada.com and adidas.com.

Nike x G-Dragon
image

V.I.Ps (by that, we mean Big Bang fans), get your wallets ready because G-Dragon is collaborating with Nike once again for a sneaker collab. Last year, the Big Bang leader and the sports brand launched Nike Air Force 1 “Para-noise” to much fanfare. This year, they’re launching the same sneakers, albeit in a reverse colour scheme: the white upper gives way to his painting. Of course, it will still retain its self-expressive character. In the words of G-Dragon, “Even though everything is uncertain these days, we shouldn’t stop expressing ourselves as the way we are, and creating our own world.”

The Nike x G-DRAGON AF1 “Para-noise” releases globally on November 25 on Nike.com for $279.

Nike x Comme des Garçons
image

After collaborating with Dior, the next collab on Nike’s list is Comme des Garçons. The sportswear brand is collaborating with the fashion label for Nike Comme des Garçons Air Force 1, which was released in-store at Dover Street Market Singapore and on the DSMS E-SHOP on October 23. The silhouette is clean and simple, and is perfect for those who are looking for versatile shoes you can wear anywhere with any outfit. It comes in two colours, black and white, and are available in US women’s sizes 5-7.5 and men’s sizes 8-13.

Nike Comme des Garçons Air Force 1 retails for $470.

Palm Angels x Clarks Originals
image

Palm Angels has once again collaborated with Clarks Originals for a new casule collection. This time round, Palm Angels’ Francesco Ragazzi reinterpreted Clarks Original’s iconic shoes, the Wallabee. The women’s version comes with rubber wedges and fringes for a fashionable spin on a classic design.
