Styles
High Top
The high-top silhouette commands attention. Ankle-covering, bold and full of heritage.
Ankle Support Myth
High-tops were originally designed for ankle support on the basketball court. Research has since questioned the benefit — but the style credentials are undeniable.
Styling High Tops
Tuck slim jeans or trousers into the collar to show off the silhouette. Avoid wide-leg cuts that hide the shoe's defining feature.
Canvas vs Leather
Canvas high-tops (Chuck Taylor) are casual and lightweight. Leather high-tops (Air Jordan 1) are more structured and premium. Both have their place.
