SkechVibe X APO555, the clothing line Skechers co-designed with Thai actor Apo Nattawin Wattanagitiphat, went on sale in Malaysia on 13 November. It is the first time the collection has been sold outside Thailand.
The range is small: six unisex T-shirts and one canvas tote bag. What sets it apart is the source material. Most of the prints come from Apo’s own life, from photographs he took on his travels to his black-and-white cat.
Apo Nattawin’s Widening Role at Skechers
The Malaysian launch follows a promotion for Apo earlier this year. In April 2026, Skechers named him its Asia-Pacific Brand Ambassador, extending a role that had previously been limited to Thailand.
According to the brand, he is the first Skechers ambassador to move from a domestic post to a regional one. Bringing SkechVibe X APO555 to a second market is the most visible result of that change so far, and it gives the regional title a product that fans outside Thailand can actually buy.
Many viewers in Malaysia already know Apo from the 2022 Thai drama KinnPorsche, which gives the collection a ready audience here.
Travel, Photography and a Cat Named MeewGu
The collection draws on two of Apo’s interests: travel and photography. Instead of building the line around a single theme, the designs work like pages from a travel scrapbook, mixing his own pictures with simple drawings and collage.
Several designs reproduce photographs he shot on trips abroad. One print shows a row of city buildings rising above a line of trees, cut into an irregular frame on a black tee.
Others lean on illustration. There is a hand-drawn Eiffel Tower set against a streak of sunset colour, scattered with pink blossoms, and a playful scene of cows standing on a small boat beneath two clouds.
The most personal design features MeewGu, Apo’s black-and-white cat, shown riding a surfboard over a wave. The same artwork carries over to the tote bag.
For fans, these touches offer a look at how Apo spends his time away from work. The Skechers name is present, but it plays a supporting role to his pictures and his pet.
Inside the SkechVibe X APO555 Range
The six T-shirt designs come in a loose, unisex cut. Each is available in two colourways, Snow White and Black Beauty, and retails at RM179.
Placement varies from shirt to shirt. Some prints sit on the chest, while others run across the back, the lower hem or the sleeve, so each tee looks different depending on the angle.
The seventh piece is a twill canvas tote bag priced at RM99. It has a cream body with navy straps and a navy base, and carries the MeewGu surfboard print beneath a Skechers logo patch drawn as a thought bubble.

A Busy Season for Skechers Collaborations in Malaysia
SkechVibe X APO555 arrives two days after Skechers announced its POP MART PUCKY collection in Malaysia, which brought art toy characters to its footwear. The brand also opened a new concept store at Waterfront Shoppes in Penang in late October.
Taken together, the launches point to Skechers using pop culture partnerships, from collectible toys to an actor’s personal artwork, to give shoppers fresh reasons to visit its stores. The store list also leans heavily on the capital, with eight of the 11 participating outlets located in the Klang Valley.
