Yes, these sneakers are ridiculously expensive and probably shouldn’t be included on this round-up, but they are just so cool. Inspired by basketball shoes of the 1960s, these all-natural latex kicks feature a low cut and a tight cross-section of laces. The effect is something that’s both a throwback and a throwforward, so could be clutch for the guy with vintage tastes.
