Wear Your Breakfast: Skechers Just Dropped the Tastiest Tees in Town

What do you get when you mix streetwear with sambal? A limited-edition apparel collection that’s so Malaysian, you can almost smell the kaya. Skechers, known globally for its comfort-driven kicks, just served up something different—and this time, it’s not a sneaker. The brand is digging deep into local cravings with the City Foods Collection, a fashion tribute to two of Malaysia’s most beloved breakfast staples: Nasi Lemak and Kaya Toast.

Dropped right in time for Merdeka Month, this isn’t your typical patriotic merch. We’re talking full-on food fest, reimagined in wearable form. The collection features two short-sleeve tees—the Nasi Lemak Set and the Kaya Toast Set—each dressed in traditional batik-inspired prints, mixing floral flourishes and clean geometric patterns. Both designs come in either Snow White or Black, keeping it minimal yet unmistakably Malaysian.

Let’s break it down.

Kaya Toast Set

Price: RM129
Colourways: Snow White / Black

Kaya toast isn’t just a breakfast—it’s a ritual. Whether you’re team kopi or teh tarik, nothing beats the combo of crispy toast, slathered with butter and sweet, green kaya, paired with those perfectly wobbly soft-boiled eggs. This tee gives a stylish nod to that kopitiam classic, made from a breathable cotton-polyester blend that’s as comfy as your favourite Saturday brunch fit.

It's nostalgia in a T-shirt—casual, unisex, and ready for anything from weekend cafe crawls to weekday hustle. Slip it on and channel that cosy, pre-9am magic wherever you go.

Nasi Lemak Set

Price: RM129
Colourways: Snow White / Black

If Malaysia had a national dish, this would be it. The Nasi Lemak Set celebrates everything we love about our unofficial national obsession—from spicy sambal to crunchy ikan bilis, and that glorious hit of creamy coconut rice. Whether you crave yours with ayam goreng, rendang, or sambal sotong, this tee is your new go-to for showing off some serious local pride.

Made from the same soft, everyday-casual fabric as its kaya counterpart, this piece screams "meet me at the mamak” without actually saying it. It’s relaxed, bold, and made for anyone who’s ever had a 3am nasi lemak fix.

One More Thing...

Every purchase from the City Foods Collection comes with a surprise you didn’t know you needed—a miniature nasi lemak bungkus charm. It’s called a Cali Bits charm (from Skechers' Foamies accessories line), and it’s wrapped just like the real deal—in daun pisang, no less. Clip it on your shoe, your bag, or your keys. It’s cheeky, charming, and completely unmistakable.

Available now in selected Skechers stores including Pavilion Bukit Jalil, Pavilion Damansara Heights, Suria KLCC, The Exchange TRX, 1 Utama, and more, this limited-edition drop won’t be around forever. So if you’ve ever wanted to wear your makan pride on your sleeve—literally—this is your moment.
