Wilson @iamwil.w is one of the Singaporean musicians who got hooked on sneakers because of the hip-hop culture. Comfortable shoes for a musician are essentials, and you won't miss Adidas pairs from his daily sneaker rotation!

What was the moment you first got drawn to sneakers, and which pair of sneakers triggered your passion?

That moment was when I got my first pair of Supra shoes back then!
