The people at PF Flyers know a thing or two about sneakers and it’s due in no small part to their sordid past. Originally made by BF Goodrich, they were bought by Converse and then later sold due to antitrust issues. New Balance bought the brand in the early 2000s and resurrected the brand. And you thought your history of ex’s was confusing. The Rambler Hi Top has just enough of the past (black leather, rubber) to keep things spicy, but also throws in some new additions (vintage field tread, sport details, no lining) to keep you on your toes. They look good; they feel good; they fit like a glove. Best of all, they’re just the right amount of crazy.
