Mid-Top Sneakers – The Best of Both Worlds

High-tops are too high for you? A conventional low-top just isn't your thing? All the best features of both types of shoes come together with a mid-top sneaker.

The height of the shaft is really what characterises mid-tops. It ends either right at the ankle or just below it. Thus, it gives you stability and support while walking and skating.

Useful for skating, but also aesthetically practical paired with shorts, jeans or chinos, they can be combined perfectly with your outfit after a skate session. Thanks to a variety of interesting cuts, designs and colours, mid-top sneakers are a great way to step up your shoe game.

Mid-Top Skate Shoes

After the high-top silhouette had its moment as the golden standard for skate shoes in the late 70's and early 80's, the era of mid-top sneakers quickly followed. To create a lower shoe without sacrificing protection, stability and safety, skaters modified conventional low-top shoes.

In 1977, pro skater Tony Alva was one of the first people to modify the traditional Vans Authentic with a padded edge. Shortly thereafter, the Vans Half Cab was born and ushered in the era of mid top skate shoes.

The higher lacing gives your feet and joints additional support and stability. The ankle-high padding protects your ankle from collisions with your board and will therefore give you more confidence when learning new tricks.
