Smart and
simple. High-top sneakers are best worn with a simple outfit – think Kanye
West – with sneakers not competing with the rest of the look.

Hi-top sneakers have gone from
the hard court into smart street style.
And at the SM Store, global brands like Converse, Pony, Supra, and Vans
are showing us how sneakers have transformed into what is now a fundamental
piece of the modern men’s urban wear.
Incorporating function with style
in a series of classic, or revised hybrid silhouettes, hi-tops have now crossed
over into cool territory with fun on-trend designs. Here are some new designs that
make hi-tops hip today:
- Show stopping Prints and Washes! Chuck Taylor’s All Star has an Aztec pattern design; while its Washed Canvas Hi has a stonewashed upper that gives it a distressed look. Who says hi-tops weren’t hip?
- Going for Gum! Born out of practicality, gum soles were initially developed for hard court sports. Their rubber construction is designed to give better grip that plastic soled footwear, while ensuring no marks were left on playing surfaces.
Today, this
five-a-side staple has moved has moved off the courtside bench into many of a sneaker
head’s wardrobe. Converse Chuck Taylor’s All-Star Tri-Panel Hi has a textured gum
rubber toe accent that really makes it cool.
- Getting Textural! Make a bold statement with
woven styles and exotic fabrications.
Leather and canvas lead the way in Converse’s Pro Field Hi;
while Converse Chuck Taylor’s All Star Tri Panel Hi has a
canvas upper with suede accents.
- The Great White Way! As he epitome of minimalist
style, white sneakers have been an off-duty wardrobe staple since the days
of Newman, Dean, and McQueen. In today’s reboot of the iconic silhouette,
white sneakers have found their way into the wardrobes of a whole new
generation of cool men.
High –top sneakers are
available at the Men’s Shoes Department of all SM Stores
