National pride

Commemorative items can get tacky, but not these from Levi's and Veja.

The American jeans maker has designed a limited-edition T-shirt (right) with "Singapore" emblazoned on it.

Clean in design, the T-shirt comes in red and white, and is available at Levi's stores and authorised retailers for $29.90.

As for French shoe brand Veja, it has collaborated with Tangs on a pair of canvas sneakers made from organic cotton.

The classic tennis shoe (right) sports a Tangs SG50 emblem on the heel tab that is not too prominent, so you could even wear it with the Levi's T-shirt without looking over-the-top.

Available at Tangs for $126.
