4. Onitsuka Tiger
This lifestyle brand is synonymous with sports and youthful energy, bringing together Japanese heritage with modern flair. You can thank the fashionable Uma Thurman for boosting its popularity after she wore a pair during the hit movie Kill Bill. Not only are the kicks stylish, but they’re also high quality and will last you a long time.
Onitsuka Tiger, multiple locations including Takashimaya and Suntec City
5. Alexander McQueen
If you’re into that oversized look, raise your sneaker game with the British label’s chunky kicks. Think standard white sneakers with a streetwear remix (read: quirky sole designs, bold-coloured heel counters and cool embellishments). You can’t go wrong with the classic oversized sneaker. But we’re big fans of the tread slick sneakers that feature chunky soles.

6. Puma
Be brave, take risks, and stand up for yourself. These are the values that Puma encompasses within its branding. And dare we say, it translates into its collection of sneakers as well. If there’s any brand you need to turn to for your sportswear, it should be this one. From football to track and field, motorsports to golf, when we say Puma has range, it has range.
Puma, multiple locations including Bugis+ and 313@Somerset
7. Adidas
The brand with the three stripes can do no wrong in our eyes! Adidas is one of the first brands we turn to when it comes to getting sneakers in Singapore. Available in a range of colours and silhouettes to suit any style, this brand’s a good ol’ reliable one.
Adidas, multiple locations including Bugis and Suntec City
8. Vans
The veritable icon for self-expression, Vans is the go-to brand for skaters, artists, and members of the underground. The first to boast the iconic side stripe, Vans debuted its Old Skool sneakers in 1977. The classic skate kicks, beloved by all, feature a durable suede and canvas upper as well as a padded tongue. No longer just for Avril Lavigne-listening skaters, these iconic shoes recently made a resurgence as a style juggernaut and are constantly spotted on the feet of the fashion world’s coolest names.
Vans, multiple locations including Ion Orchard and Bugis Junction
9. Converse
When you’re looking for cool sneakers in Singapore, it doesn’t get more iconic than this. Despite the mind-numbingly vast selection of casual sneakers, nothing says stylish throwback like Converse chucks. These classic canvas sneakers with compound rubber soles have achieved cult status with everyone from skater boys and b-ballers to quirky fashionistas.
Converse, multiple locations including Raffles Place and Ion Orchard
10. Asics
Asics takes a scientific approach with its kicks. The brand uses technology like the core gel cushioning system and flytefoam, which gives Asics sneakers an ultra-comfortable feel and enhances their performance. While most of the sneakers are meant for runners, that’s not stopping us from getting a pair for our walks through the city.
Asics, multiple locations including Plaza Singapura and Suntec City
11. Nike
A fan favourite has got to be Nike. Few sneakers are respected (rapper Nelly even dedicated a song to it) and recognised as the Nike Air Force 1. Originally a basketball shoe, the AF1s may have evolved over the years in colourways and subtle details, but newer models still stick to the shoe’s classic silhouette, springy cushioning and massive sole.

Now that you’ve gotten a sneak peek at the best sneakers in Singapore, it’s time to lace up and walk a mile in these shoes.
