All our sneakers are listed in standard US sizing. To convert from men’s to women’s sizes, add 1.5 sizes to the men’s size (for example, a men’s 7 is equivalent to a women’s 8.5).
Customers often prefer sizing up for a more comfortable fit in our Center and All-American franchises. Try a ½ size above your normal sneaker size.
The Grounder High-Top sneaker embodies mid-century utility and all-day endurance. At a time when canvas sneakers were seen as soft and impractical, we redefined the standard with structured strength and lasting durability, without sacrificing comfort.
Constructed from heavyweight 12oz canvas with tonal stitching and subtle detailing, this black high-top is a foundational design. A leather ankle patch and waxed cotton laces elevate the look, while a lugged outsole and ribbed toe bumper ensure traction and structure that holds up through every mission. Born from wartime necessity and built to endure, The Grounder High-Top is a nod to mid-century military design: rugged, resilient, and ready for anything.

Love them!!! Comfortable and they just look great. Need more!
I’ve been wearing these bad boys almost every day for the past year and a half. I walk the dog about 2 miles a day, every day. And the soles hardly show any wear. I think they’re going to last forever!
I finally made the switch to PF Flyers. I've been a Converse girl all my life, but I was no longer impressed with the quality, they were wearing out way too fast. I'm already so impressed with PF Flyers. They were actually built to last. I ordered half a size too small and the exchange process was the easiest I've ever experienced. I've already received multiple compliments on these bad boys. Safe to say I won't be going back to Converse.
Nice shoes; a bit more structure than the All Americans, with a nice arch support on the footbed. Really nice walking shoe for city hiking and workouts. That's as far as they've gone so far--street and gym.
First time buying these and I've wanted a pair for a while and I'm not disappointed. They're a lot more sturdy and well made than I was expecting and comfortable too. Well worth the money! I plan on buying the base camp version whenever they're back in stock. Thank you! : )
I absolutely love PF Flyers and their all black canvas Hightop is a must have on my fashion checklist. Ever since I watched The Sandlot when in 2004 when I was 5. A going to order a pair for my birthday this week
I love these, and they are a stable shoe, with a great rubber sole and soft but secure ankle support.
I did add an extra insole between the bare bottom of the insole and the original provided insole, for added comfort for my bony feet.
Now they are perfect.
They remind me of my childhood.
Another pair is in my future.
I’m enjoying these shoes. I like sneakers and I ride motorcycles. Converse would get ripped up over the toes pretty quick from shifting gears. I ran across these and noticed they have extended rubber over the toes, perfect for where the shifter goes, and the heavier canvas protects my ankles better. They might not be made for the purpose I’m using them for but they’re working great for it. Going to pick up a couple more sets.
Wish I would have known about these before. Can’t wait to get base camps when back in stock and definitely need to get the “sandlot” high tops. A world better different than chucks.
I normally wear chucks to work, but lately they've been wearing out too fast. I love high tops and these are excellent. Very durable, comfortable, and well made. The thicker tread is great for running around all day. I've been wearing these every day for two weeks now and they are worth every penny! I will definitely be buying my shoes from here moving forward.
Miles better than Converse in every way. Build quality. The look of them. How comfortable they are. Laces are ultra cool too. Already bought a second pair of PF Flyers in white to go with these black ones. Highly recommended.
