Become A Hero With The Skechers X One Punch Man Collection, Now Available In Malaysia
If you're a fan of anime, you would probably know Saitama, a.k.a. One Punch Man.
He is the world's mightiest hero, capable of killing monsters with just one punch.
While it's very unlikely that we can be like him (except for shaving your entire head bald), we can at least look a little bit like him.
Look good saving the world
Lifestyle brand Skechers have officially unveiled their latest anime collaboration: the Skechers X One Punch Man Collection.Created in association with the superhero manga and anime franchise 'One Punch Man', the collection features four new styles of sneakers for both men and women, with each colourway inspired by an iconic character from the series:
Created on Skechers’ chunky Stamina 2.0 silhouette, titular hero Saitama is being represented through his signature colours of yellow and red along the panelling of the sneaker, along with the ‘One Punch’ icon on the shoe tongue, fans will also appreciate the subtle elements that call back to each character. The sneakers feature wavy lined panelling and a thick sole base for the street-style look. An Air-Cooled Memory Foam cushioned insole provides breathability and comfort, perfect for any hero.
Saitama's trusty sidekick, the cyborg Genos, also has his own Skechers silhouette. Just like the Saitama model, Genos' Stamina 2.0 sneakers features navy and black accents, just like his character in the manga/anime series. The Genos silhouette features a gear icon on the shoe tongue.
The popular S-Class: Rank 2 heroine Tornado also gets her own Skechers silhouette with a light and dark green colourway - which matches her look in the anime series. You can find a tornado icon on the tongue of her Stamina 2.0 silhouette.
Last but not least, what's a hero without a villain, right? The fast-as-lightning ninja Sonic also gets his own silloutte, with the pair of Stamina 2.0s spotting black and purple accents. A shuriken icon can be found on the tongue of the shoe.
