Evan Saunders

Evan Saunders is Sneaker Fortress' lead sneaker reviewer and Advertising Manager, based in Johannesburg, South Africa. A dedicated sneakerhead with a personal collection of over 100 pairs, Evan brings hands-on experience to everything he covers — he has reviewed sneakers from PUMA, adidas, Reebok, ASICS, New Balance, and Vans, testing them in real-world conditions and writing about performance, comfort, and design with the perspective of someone who actually wears what he reviews.

With over two decades of experience in tech, design, and digital media, Evan has a sharp eye for product quality and innovation — skills that translate directly into his sneaker coverage. He tracks brand collaborations, new silhouettes, and performance technology across the full sneaker market, with particular depth in adidas, PUMA, and ASICS. His work has been recognised beyond the page: he was featured in an Instax SA feature on sneaker culture, speaking to his collection and his approach to the hobby.

Evan contributes to Fortress of Solitude covering tech, gaming, and sport, and is part of the Fortress Entertainment team alongside founder Jarrod Saunders. His work is tracked on Muck Rack.
