Love Pokémon? Love SKECHERS? Awesome – take your time reading this, cause SKECHERS has awesome Pokémon magic lined up for you!
SKECHERS has introduced its new Foamies line, which features the endearing likeness of Pokémon. The first-ever SKECHERS Pokémon Foamies Collection features designs for men, women and kids based on the widely-recognised anime and video game series.
Based on SKECHERS GOwalk 5™ Foamies, the collection aims to dress the feet of those who love fun and playful styles, who enjoy going out – be it to a park, the beach, or for casual outings – but do not want to compromise on comfort. The men’s and women’s collections are now available; while the kids’ will be launched in October.
The incredibly comfortable Skechers GOwalk 5™ Foamies is made with a drainage system to guarantee that it dries rapidly. It has a light, perforated EVA top, with a detachable heel strap; a responsive ULTRA GO® cushioning midsole; and a contoured footbed with dual-density foam. This is further improved with the high-rebound Comfort Pillar Technology®, which guarantees reliable foot support with each step.
“We are delighted to launch the new Skechers’ Pokémon Foamies collection with eye-catching, iconic imagery. The new designs will appeal to Pokémon fans and our Skechers customers who seek casual footwear with a dose of style and fun! With the Foamies’ distinctive classic design, this range also brings back a sense of nostalgia for those who grew up watching the Pokémon series or playing the game. Created in 1996, Pokémon is a role-playing game series filled with such elements of play as “collecting”, in which the player catches and raises Pokémon, and “communication”, in which the player trades and battles with friends. At the same time, they know that Skechers Foamies can be trusted for superior comfort and innovation,” said Zann Lee, Managing Director, Skechers Southeast Asia.
Get ‘Em Now Before They Walk Away!
This fun and playful iteration of the Skechers GOwalk 5™ Foamies will strike a nostalgic chord among consumers with its whimsical colourways and adorable images of the well-loved pioneering Pokémon – such as Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Eevee, Snorlax and Charizard – emblazoned on the footwear.
Pikachu Men & Women I RM279
Pikachu, the iconic yellow Electric-type Mouse Pokémon, is known as the first partner Pokémon of the anime protagonist and needs no introduction.
With its animated stances on the vamp, Pikachu adds even more colour to the footwear. The convertible heel strap is patterned with lightning bolts and has a colour scheme of exciting yellow and crisp white. A yellow line contrasts with the 1.5-inch high, jet-black outsole to give it a spunkier appearance.
This lovely design is perfect for date nights for couples that enjoy wearing coordinated clothing. Wherever you go, you will definitely draw attention and hear squeals of excitement if you wear these Foamies with a tube dress for women, or a polo top with berms for men.
Eevee Women I RM279
A Normal-type Evolution Pokémon called Eevee can change the composition of its body to better fit its environment. Numerous potential evolutions are concealed by its unstable genetic structure. This fashionable clog is decorated with a pattern reminiscent of its round fur collar, and a black line that runs along the brown outsole gives the shoe some personality.
Eevee is shown in joyful and playful attitudes on the shoe’s vamp. To ultimately make it stand out, you may wear it with a denim dress or with camouflage leggings and a camisole top.
Jigglypuff Women I RM279
Jigglypuff, the adorable pink Normal-and-Fairy type Balloon Pokémon, has recordings of its peculiar lullabies that can be purchased in department stores close to the bedding section.
The detachable heel strap of this pair of lovely pastel pink Foamies has an abstract recurring motif that symbolises Jigglypuff’s lullaby. On each side of the shoe vamp, there is a picture of Jigglypuff with its big expressive eyes and singing. A supple white linen dress will go well with this combo.
Charizard Men I RM279
Charizard, a Fire and Flying-type Flame Pokémon with a reputation for spitting fire hot enough to melt boulders, is depicted majestically in flight on the vamp of the Foamies and has a fiery design on the detachable heel strap.
These eye-catching and functional Foamies look great with just an oversized tee and a pair of tight jeans. They have an obsidian-blackout sole that is separated by a brilliant orange streak.
Snorlax Men I RM279
Another notable Pokémon in this collection is Snorlax, a Normal-type Sleeping Pokémon that weighs 460 kg and spends most of its time sleeping. It only wakes up to devour at least 880 pounds of food each day before going right back to sleep.
This pair of Foamies’ convertible heel straps has a delicate pattern with a blackout sole and a cream stripe in the centre that matches Snorlax’s large belly and face. Wear this pair to channel the laid-back feel with a loose tank top, beach shorts, and sunglasses for the ideal ensemble for an afternoon spent on a boat or a cup of coffee with friends.
