Under Armour HOVR Phantom (RM675)
These ultra-breathable shoes are sufficiently cushioned for daily training and also for the streets, akin to running on a cloud. Boasting the Speedform 2.0 sockliner and insoles built in for softer underfoot support and protection, the shoes are constructed with a microthread upper made with Dyneema, the world’s strongest fibre on a full-length HOVR foam.
Nike Air Vapormax Flyknit 2 (RM706.50)
The ultra-light Nike Air VaporMax Flyknit 2 combines a handful of Nike’s many innovations including the Flyknit and Max Air technology to extend more support around the heels on top of the foot-hugging feel. The futuristic sole is evidently a major part of its appeal, aside from maximum responsiveness and dynamic flexibility the shoes provide.

These quintessential ’90s dad sneakers are showing no signs of slowing down and irresistible new colourways have just been unveiled in solid pink, dusty blue and olive green.

adidas Originals Continental 80 (RM424.53)
Classic never looked better. These ’80s tennis style trainers are constructed with a leather upper for a premium look, and the bottom is a responsive midsole paired with a grippy outsole. The red and navy stripe along the sidewalls with the adidas wording and Trefoil branding makes them extra sleek on the streets.
