Pakistan spinner Nashra Sandhu, who put up a stunning display against Hong Kong at the Asia Cup on Monday, has also drawn attention for wearing performance shoes from one8 – the sportswear label co-created by Indian batting great Virat Kohli.

With visuals from the match going viral over the internet, social media users were quick to point out that the shoes Sandhu was wearing one8 shoes during the match.
One8 has grown beyond its original apparel line and now includes a dedicated technical footwear range. The brand runs cricket-specific shoe models under names such as Seam and Cover Drive, along with multi-activity training shoes like Boom Rush, all built to handle the physical demands of professional cricketers and other athletes.
The brand operates under Agilitas Sports and has expanded its footprint into lifestyle spaces as well, including the one8 Commune dining venues. Kohli remains closely tied to the brand’s design process and public identity as a co-founder.
Pakistan will next face Sri Lanka in the semi-final on Sept 11.
