Paying homage to the hard work of our founders and the competitive nature of the game that inspired it all, K-Swiss is dedicated to outfitting and inspiring the next generation of tennis players and injecting that same inspiration and energy into other racquet sport and lifestyle products.
The SI-18 Rival takes inspiration from some of our heritage models from the 1980s and 90s. By taking the upper from the Si-18 Rannell training shoe and putting it on a cup sole bottom inspired by the iconic Si-18 Premier tennis shoe, we have made a sneaker that is fresh and new yet still authentic to our heritage tennis roots.
Way back when, like the late 90s (LOL), owning a flip phone was seen as the ultimate sign of coolness. You'd pretend to make a call just so you could snap it shut in front of your friends, all of whom would be in awe of your brand new 8-bit ringtone of 'Genie in a Bottle' that you paid a whole R2 for. (We say pretend, because back then, making a call was way too expensive!)
We are now in 2024 and a lot has changed. Having a camera on your phone is nothing new - in fact, even settling for just 2 lenses is SO 3-years-ago. Having 8-bit ringtones? Puh-lease! Nowadays, if your mobile device can't literally compose and publish its own award-winning symphonies, you're probably due for a new one.
And a new one is exactly what you can get with our deal on a 256GB S21 Ultra 5G Samsung smartphone!
