  i hate sportswear. its sloppy and unpresentable. there's a reason why they're called "sports wear", because they're meant for wear when doing "sports" ONLY.

  I don't wear sports shoes. Prefer nice slippers so that my feet are Not cramped into an enclosed area (which is already the case 5 days a week with heels). So I go for the clothes.
  
  NIKE.

  In the past when in secondary school used to buy Nike products...
  
  Nowadays I feel that Nike sports shoes do not go well with many clothes (too big and flashy+informal) and hence switching my preference to the Adidas walking range of shoes, Diesel footwear and men's shoes from those shops in Millenia Walk...

  better evolve with the times man, it is so passe to wear dress slack and shirts to work nowadays, shows that you are either (i) regimented working ant or (ii) too old to change. all these are bad for moving into the creative phase

  Duh? The topic is which brand do you support buddy...
  Hahahaha!!! Sportswear is so varied. What are you talking about??! You don't see people wearing sneakers for sports! For your info, sports brands are creating and designing shoes for everyday wear, or as a fashion item,and not for sports. Where have you been?? Oh, I know...Welcome to Earth, Mr Martian.
  Try not to wear your pants so high up to your chest. Haha...Next!!!

  I think NIke and Adidas just fashion brands... but .. ASICS are made for Feet!

  Depends on whose feet - ASICS are good, but they tend to be on the narrow side, and that's just a bugger if you've got EE feet.

  asics has consistently gave very good cushion for its running shoes.
  the only brand i know that had a product line for flat footed ppl.
  
  basketball ones reebok gives good value for durability and cushioning
  tried before adidas's basketball variants ... some of the cushion cannot make it.
  
  nike ones have good cushion, but tend to have ridiculously too short a lifespan for my taste, so much so i am convinced they arent meant to be used for sports.
  
  basically if you going for sports, forget about brands. wear and try out.
  different manufacturers, different strengths

  there's something called sophistication that only chic clothes can bring out the creative class or the simple-minded, lazy bum who went to la salle to design street culture nonsense? changing with the "evolving" times or just mindless followers of the capitalistic genius of brand marketing?

  fashion item or objects of desire for pointless teenagers who can't afford better stuff? fyi i wear my pants at my pelvis area, just right, not outright sloppy like some teens, they might as well not wear pants with the belts dangling below their testicles and pants built for the incredible hulk. i guess us martians just dress better than earthlings in sports junk..face it.

  Haha fyi, some of these "fashion items" don't come cheap. They can even cost 10 to 20 times of your so called prim and proper office wear. Whatever.
  How about celebrities who wear them? There're all junk and losers? So you don't watch movies or listen to music or whatever? If you do, then admit that they do look good. Well, maybe you don't do these stuff at all.
  
  I see some strong comments from you. How about sharing your comments with those "can't afford better stuff" teenagers you mentioned? They'll surely help you pull up your pants to your chest..or even your neck. No guts?? No time? Not worth your effort?? Welcome to Earth, Martian. Haha...Next!

  Oh by the way, I corrected you about sports brands creating apparel not solely for sports, when you said sportswear are to be used only for sports. I didn't see any effort from you to correct me. But I forgive you...cos' you know nothing.

  I couldn't care less as long as the shoe fits and I can run comfortably in them.
  
  I care more about functionality than brand name.

  maybe that's the reason why on a few occasions, I saw commuters wearing sport shoes to work...
  
  I can't believe people needs a book to tell them what to wear.

  something proper doesn't have to be office wear..which decade are you stuck in? the 30s? does johnny depp wear sports wear? i guess only mumbling rappers like nikes. why not, i welcome all gorgeous or at least acceptable teenage girls to pull my pants up for me, pull down also can. or are you the one who has no guts to answer my question and keep changing subjects? welcome to earth? sometimes i wonder how much intellect you have, ain't i already in earth? even your nike loving rappers avoid sportswear at award presentations. what say you, street kid?
