In its sixth year, Sole Superior, Singapore's sneaker and streetwear convention returns this time in all its Super Saiyan glory as Street Superior. A joint-concept between Sole Superior and One Eleven, expect to see street culture fill the raw empty industrial space of a Pasir Panjang power station (say what?). With 16 showcase brands; 70 streetwear slingers; 15 food vendors; a music and art line-up of DJs, parkour and graff artists, you will be spoilt for choice but here are some samples to whet your appetite.

SBTG x VeChain

So, what's a public blockchain platform got to do with street culture? Glad you ask. When you're exchanging silver with collectable sneakers, trust is of utmost import—Is this limited edition footwear authentic? What's the provenance of this pair of shoes?—that's where VeChain comes in. With the use of NFC chips embedded into 15 pairs of customised sneakers by SBTG, buyers can keep track of the sneakers via its digital footprint.

FLABSLAB

Enfant terrible and creative agency, FLABSLAB will appear for the first time with their take on Adventure Time. Sculptures, toys, stickers and such will be up for grabs but we're eyeing a certain cartoon dog as a Tibetian tiger rug. Items are limited.

VANS x Pirate Life Brew

Teaming up with craft brewery, Pirate Life Beer, VANS promises a 10.5m by 1.5m mini skate ramp, free skate clinics and cash for tricks competitions. We're not sure if there will be specially-produced alcohol available for this event but drunk skateboarders sound like a recipe for fun, right? (It's not.)

PONY

The US brand is having a resurgence thanks to its collaboration with fashion and industrial designer, Yong Bae Seok. With its debut at Pitti Uomo S/S 2019, the Pony x Yong Bae Seok capsule collection will be unleashed at SSF. Attendees who have made pre-orders of the collaboration can collect their shoes on site and even have it signed by Yong Bae Seok himself. Pre-order the Pony x Yong Bae Seok collab.

Limited Edt

For this weekend, local shoe retailer will take on a temporary new look as LE Convenience. Inspired by your neighbourhood convenience store, this one-stop mini mart will launch offerings like Adidas Dragon Ball X Prophere and the Adidas x Bathing Ape 3ST, just to name a few. We doubt LE Convenience will sell hot dogs or slushies but there will be grub at SSF…

Chow

Some short French general once said that "an army marches on its belly" and you need to keep your body fueled and your energy up. There will be 15 independent food vendors (halal food options available) that include Tokidon with their premium grade 6 and 9 wagyu sliders and wagyu sukiyaki don; Park Bench Deli whipping up some Po' boys, PBJs and Banh Mis and JengGood's laksudon, which is a mix of, uh, laksa and udon. There arere also drinks like Ollella's Indonesian avocado milkshakes and bubble tea from Kipo’s.

Street Superior will run this weekend (27-28 October) from noon to 10pm at Pasir Panjang "A" Power Station, 27 Pasir Panjang Road. Go to Street Superior website for more information and ticketing.
