Abstract

Presenting "Malaylah," a line of sneakers from Petaling Jaya, Selangor-based Malaysian business Makerz, which was founded in November 2020. "Boswan," also known as Azwan Islam Ahmad Shah, established Makerz. A new collection called "Malaylah!" has designs based on old Malay proverbs. The three distinct designs in the collection, each with a proverbial aspect, highlight the brand's commitment to bringing cultural wisdom into modern fashion and embody the phrase "Langkah Penuh Kata.""Dimana bumi dipijak, disitu langit dijunjung," the first design, is powerful embodiment of respect and appreciation for one's surroundings. The sneaker graphically captures the spirit of this proverb by highlighting the earth's and sky's interdependence and promoting harmony and unity."Bersatu teguh, bercerai roboh," the second design, illustrates the strength that results from cooperation and togetherness. Makerz's meticulously designed sneaker design embodies the proverb's message of unity and perseverance, providing wearers with a poignant reminder of the value of sticking together when faced with adversity.The final design, "Alah membeli, menang memakai," captures the notion that prudent financial decisions result in significant gains. This aphorism is cleverly incorporated by Makerz into an eye-catching sneaker, inspiring people to pursue their goals with consideration and to enjoy the fruits of their decisions.
