“Skateboard enthusiasts are very particular about their shoes. They need to be comfortable and durable. In addition, we cannot neglect the importance of knee-high socks; they protect our feet and legs from injuries. Skateboarding is a sport that is sensitive to trends in fashion and accessories such as caps and waist pouches. Recently, there has been an increase in the number of fashion brands that cater to skateboarders and this allows us to have more options in choosing what to wear.” –

Mulawear Top 43,000 won. Rockwear Leggings, 169,000 won. Toe socks price unavailable. Easy Yoga Yoga Mat, 118,000 won.
“Pilates often require you to stand straight with legs aligned to your shoulders. Tight leggings are therefore ideal as they show the shape of the legs well. It is good for beginners to wear ¾ leggings to enable us to check the difference in the shape of the calf muscles required of each pose. Elasticity of the pants is also important. Pilates involves using different equipment and so we have to be careful of losing balance and falling and hurting ourselves. Recently, for safety purposes, sports stores have started selling this item called ‘toe-sock’. Not only does it possess non-slip properties, it provides the toes with a good grip, reducing the amount of strength required.” -
