PF Flyers Center Lo Sneaker – $51.24

I know the go-to classic American Sneaker is the Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star.  But hear me out.

  • PF Flyers aren’t razor thin in the out-sole. They’re good and thick feeling.
  • The toe bumpers are much more substantial and stand out in a good way.
  • Colored laces are a nice option to have.
  • For white sneaks, the PF Center Lo is a perfect mix of bright white toe/bumper and off white canvas.
  • Three Words: Benny… the… Jet.
  • PF Center Los have a sweet silk tie inspired lining.
  • Chuck Taylor was a great Salesman.  Bob Cousy is a legendary basketball player.

All I’m saying is that the next time you think about buying another pair of Chucks, consider the Posture Foundation tradition of PF Flyers.
