Men's Pro Keds

Pro Keds Man: sporting heritage and streetwear style

In the world of sneakers, Pro Keds man combines sporting roots and streetwear identity in a contemporary proposition. Born in Boston in 1949 as a brand linked to the US Rubber Company, it first grew on basketball courts and in gyms, before making its name on the streets of New York and in hip hop culture as a symbol of authenticity.

Pier Abbigliamento selects Pro Keds for those who want retro-inspired sneakers, clean in their lines yet updated in comfort and materials, ideal to follow the rhythm of the day between city life, leisure and travel.

Materials and workmanship

The construction of Pro Keds sneakers starts from durable canvas, leather or selected suede, combined with vulcanised rubber soles for grip and longevity. Cushioned midsoles help to absorb impact during everyday walking, while sidewalls and reinforced toe caps protect the foot and help the shoe keep its shape over time.

Iconic details, such as the lateral stripes and heel patch, tell the brand’s sporting origin, while clean finishing makes pairing with different outfits easier. Colour palettes range from essential whites to navy blues and deep reds, with more saturated options for those seeking a controlled pop of colour.

Key models

In the Pro Keds man selection at Pier Abbigliamento you will mostly find silhouettes inspired by old-school basketball sneakers: hi-top and low-top styles with contrasting soles, clean profiles and lightweight uppers.

Canvas versions are ideal as everyday sneakers, while leather or suede variations add a stronger note to urban looks. The fit is planned to support walking with stability, with attention to forefoot, instep and heel support, so as to ensure comfort even on the most active days.

How to style it

A white Pro Keds sneaker with chinos and fine knitwear creates a clean casual look that also works for a relaxed office environment. Hi-top versions pair well with straight or slightly loose denim, essential T-shirts and cotton or light wool overshirts.
