There\u2019s a certain type of sneaker that looks like it should come with a tennis racket. Low to the ground and quietly retro. Nike and Kallmeyer\u2019s Tennis Centre is very much that shoe, with a few tricks of its own.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s the first shoe the two have made together, and it feels like a pretty natural pairing.<\/p>\n
shop nike Tennis Centre x Kallmeyer Travertine<\/a><\/p>\n Kallmeyer has taken the familiar tennis sneaker<\/a> and made it feel a little more grown up. The Travertine suede gives the whole thing a soft, earthy finish, while the antique brass details stop it from looking too pristine, \u2018cause nobody wants that. It\u2019s understated, but there\u2019s enough going on to notice it.<\/p>\n The best part might be the laces. You get the usual cotton pair, plus a rounded leather option that makes the same sneaker feel surprisingly different. The latter has a slightly more polished feel, which is useful when you\u2019re trying to convince yourself that sneakers count as dressing up.<\/p>\n And despite all the fashion \u201cstuff\u201d happening here, it hasn\u2019t forgotten where it came from. The low profile and court-inspired construction<\/a> keep it firmly in tennis territory, while the suede pouch feels like a very Kallmeyer addition.<\/p>\n Your Highsnobiety privacy settings have blocked this Instagram post.<\/p>\n Enable All Media<\/p>\n Consider this your excuse to take tennis shoes somewhere other than the court.
