Bangkok: Skechers, the renowned running shoe brand, has returned with the SKECHERS RUNNING WORKSHOP 2025, an event specifically designed for health-conscious runners. The workshop, now in its 29th iteration, is spearheaded by Ms. Nantanee Prasitjutrakul, Marketing Manager of Skechers (Thailand) Co., Ltd. It invites participants to explore a nature trail set amidst the urban landscape of Bangkok, beginning and concluding at Central Ladprao.
According to Thai News Agency, the route of this unique workshop spans approximately 10 kilometers, weaving through some of Bangkok's most verdant urban parks, including Chatuchak Park, Queen Sirikit Park, Phu Pha Mahanathi Park, and Rot Fai Park. This event offers runners a chance to engage with nature while simultaneously gaining a fresh perspective on the city of Bangkok.
A key highlight of this year's workshop is the introduction of Skechers' latest running shoe, the 'AERO Series'. This innovative footwear line is crafted to provide speed, style, and comfort, enhancing runners' performance by helping them cut through the air and extend their limits. The shoes feature Hyper Burst IceS technology, a two-layer foam midsole, and a carbon-infused H-plate at the forefoot, delivering exceptional cushioning and support through softness, lightness, and responsiveness. Additionally, the new Skechers Arch Fit® insole offers improved comfort.
Participants had the opportunity to try out two distinct models from the AERO Series during the event. The Skechers AERO BurstS, ideal for long-distance runners, boasts a Hyper Burst IceS foam sole, carbon-infused H-plate, and an enhanced Skechers Arch Fit® model with a breathable mesh upper and secure tongue for optimal comfort. Meanwhile, the Skechers AERO SparkS caters to both everyday use and long-distance running, featuring responsive cushioning, Hyper Burst IceS foam, and an H-plate for secure strides, along with a snug design ensuring foot stability.
The workshop provided runners with the chance to test these models in the heart of the city, all while enjoying the natural beauty of Bangkok's parks.
