High-top sneakers are the new high heels! You heard it here first. All gain, no pain. Just how we like it! In the past few years, sneakers have surpassed sandals as the ultimate day-to-night shoe. You can even get away with rocking kicks to the club now! Miley Cyrus would be so proud (“Party in the USA” will always be our jam).
High-tops literally elevate your ensemble with a heightened silhouette. They’re just effortlessly cool! And while the Chuck Taylor All-Stars are one of the classic high-top styles, there are versions out there that give these running shoes a run for their money. We rounded up seven alternatives from Zappos that are quite possibly comfier than Converses. Say hi to these high-tops below!
