No more need to travel abroad as Creative Recreation is here
MANILA, Philippines – There’s no more need to travel to other countries for the trendiest pair of sneakers. Hollywood’s favorite kicks are finally in the Philippines.
Recently showcased in Eastwood Mall, Libis at the newly established Complex store, Creative Recreation serves as a strong testament to a radical fashion change in the footwear industry.
While most people are used to separating what’s comfortable and what’s fashionable, Creative Recreation blurs these lines and dramatically changes sneaker history by fusing artistry and comfort based on dress shoe sensibilities.
Founded in Orange County, California in 2002 by Robert Nand and Rich Cofinco, Creative Recreation seeks to create trendy athletic sneakers that serve as more fashionable alternatives of drab sneakers for footwear addicts. There are no more settling for or choosing between classic running shoes or hip and trendy footwear as Creative Recreation merges them into one shoe.
Globally, the footwear market is in full blast. The demands for new designs in the world have never been greater. Creative Recreation seeks to address this growing need by making footwear for every occasion.
Its array of fashionable footwear designs is composed of designs that exude an edgy and adventurous vibe with its colorful and eye-catching variety. Prices average P4,000 for styles such as the Borelli, Capri, Cesario, Milano, Pinelli, Solano and Testa for men and women. These designs perfectly embody the combination of street edge and sophisticated taste of street fashion today.
Creative Recreation is sold at the Complex Lifestyle Store in Eastwood Mall, Complex Lifestyle Store Ayala Center Cebu, Hideout at Greenbelt 5, and Shoe Salon stores in TriNoma, Powerplant Mall, Glorietta 3, Shangri-la Mall, SM Mall of Asia, Robinsons Place Manila and Virra Mall.
