2. Superga

The Italian Influence

In China, Superga has yet to become a mainstream staple, but it’s gaining momentum in niche markets. In Italy, however, Superga has already conquered the masses. Known for its athleisure look, comfort and wide range of styles, these approachable sneakers are hailed as the "people's shoe of Italy." Founded in the ancient town of Torino, Superga boasts a century of high-quality craftsmanship and has been a pioneer of rubber-soled footwear. Kate Middleton is Superga’s die-hard fan. Every few days she slips her foot into one.

3. Saucony

The Most Comfortable Work-Out Shoes in Finger-Licking Shades

Not only are they the answer to nail that post-gym look, this longstanding American brand is considered the Rolls Royce of professional running shoes. Saucony combines expert design for running and sleekness so that fashion-minded runners can look glam during workouts while finishing their cardio in top form. ModeSens fashion editors aren’t exercise junkies but the Saucony colors alone are stopping us in our tracks. They are too pretty!

Saucony designers are probably real foodies. They’ve managed to cohesively transform breakfast, lunch and dinner’s array of vibrant colors into Saucony footwear. A handful of shoes are even named after foods! No subtleties spared. For instance, several collections feature shades in “Belgian Waffle”, “Bacon & Eggs”, “Chicago Dog”, “Irish Coffee”, “Street Sweets” and “Lobster”, just to name a few. All of which will decidedly leave you with a pang of food cravings. Food aside, Saucony’s shock absorption and stabilizing technology provide top-notch, luxurious support. The ultralight-weight sneakers give runners great lift on the run. Other than perfection, ModeSens editors can only use “everlasting” to describe our first impression of the Saucony shoe, an everlasting love affair.

And speaking of maintaining quality, every pair of these “people’s shoe of France” are made in Europe. At the same time, to support environmental protection, the soles are made of natural rubber. Because of these reasons, since its birth in 1978, Bensimon has always been the pride of French culture.

5. Tretorn

Unlimited Potential from the Heart of Northern Europe

If there’s a brand can accurately capture Northern European style, then Tretorn comes to mind. Founded in 1981 in Sweden, Tretorn used to operate under PUMA as a niche market product, and was then acquired by Authentic Brands Group in the USA. Formerly, Tretorn’s flagship design was high-quality and good-looking rain boots.But soon afterwards, the preppy look and tennis shoe collections were born.

In the wake of the 70’s workout wave, Tretorn’s sports line received shout-outs from many big fashion magazines. If you are a tennis player, then Tretorn is your perfect fit. Northern European’s sleek minimalist design, tonal lace-up closure, and the V logo on the side are all Tretorn’s signature markings. To ModeSens editors, the most attractive thing about Tretorn is the refined taste shown through its effortless simplicity.
