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.
Originally designed in the 1940s for the U.S. military, The Grounder High-Top was built to endure long days, tough terrain, and unpredictable conditions. The Sea Salt edition of this rugged canvas shoe carries that same field-tested foundation forward with a lighter, more refined perspective.
It’s a balance of toughness and restraint that feels natural on both city streets and uneven ground. Clean, cream-toned canvas softens the silhouette while staying true to The Grounder’s utilitarian roots. Inside, the comfortable lining delivers a more secure fit from the first step, while the Posture Foundation Sockliner brings enhanced cushioning, stability, and moisture control for all-day wear. The durable 12oz canvas upper develops character with use, breaking in over time without losing its shape. A tonal embossed leather ankle patch, lugged rubber outsole, and signature ribbed toe wrap complete the off-white shoe with unmistakable, yet understated, P.F. Flyers character.
It’s a high-top sneaker that’s purposeful at its core: durable, versatile, and ready for wherever the day leads. Built for uncertainty and refined for everyday wear.

Meant to leave a review while logged in, oops! Still love these 10 minutes later! Super versatile, rugged, comfy, practical, and functional. Good shoes!!
About a year on & I love these shoes. The canvas is perfect for waxing to weather-proof, which I did immediately and they have held up great. They have just about all the function of a boot with the comfort of being the best tennis shoes I could ask for. I have a herniated disc & limited footwear options so you had me at "Posture Foundation." I'm buying another pair right after I leave this review & I'm not just saying that!!
After almost six years it was time for a fresh pair. The quality is as solid as ever. Love the new pull tabs and the fabric patch. Please never stop making them!
I fell in love with this sneakers the instant I opened the box. The build is sturdy and I like the clean look. It's my first pair but it's definitely the start of my love story with this brand. Grab a pair. Don't hesitate!
I was nervous to buy these because I have very wide feet. I have to go a full size up in Converse just to fit, but I didn't have to do that with the P F Flyers. I was able to order my true size and they fit like a glove. I love the tie cap and the thicker sole on the grounders, I feel like I can wear them all day and in lots of different conditions. I'll be buying more for certain!
Fast shipping made unwrapping these Grounders, my second pair of Flyers, even more exciting. My first pair arrived before you were born! Grounder is great looking, a perfect fit, and super solid on the ground. Go for it!
They hold up to exterior work conditions.I am a painter and I actually love the way they work as tennis shoes with being very grippable.... I love my p f flyers
Really Beautiful.
Been a long time converse/Cons/vans guy (since the 70’s lol)
Always have known about PF’s and decided to give a try. Added comfort, added toe box space. Really nice. Happy with my purchase.
When I ordered my true size, they felt pretty loose, so I exchanged them for a half size smaller. Had to pay $10 for the exchange, and now my toes toward the edge of the shoe are cramped and hurt after a while. They also sent a one-time discount code for first time purchases right after I placed my order, so it was unusable. I like the shoes but the experience wasn't great, and now I have to buy a new pair that fits correctly
PF flyers run a little snug, I usually order a half size smaller in converse so I did the same with these and it was the wrong choice. Returned the shoes and exchanged for a half size larger instead. Returns made super easy
I wanted a heavier duty P.F to get me through the brutal northern Indiana winter. These did not disappoint. The tread is pretty decent, and they're comfortable enough to wear all day. If I had to leave a critique it would be that they are heavier than a typical pair of P.Fs.
*heads-up* The heavy tread doesn't span the entire bottom of the boot. I teach and wear mine all day at school. I've half rolled my ankle a couple times now because of this. Luckily they're high tops and don't allow your ankle to do a full roll 😅
Came just as described, I get hesitant buying shoes online because of me being a half size and having wide feet but they fit perfectly fine and are comfortable
Thick canvas, sturdy rubber soles, classic looks. Fits slightly large, usually wear a 13, but 12 fits well. Might order a second pair in another color.
A beautiful pair of shoes. They look and feel sturdy and well made, significantly better than more common canvas sneakers. The gender neutral sizing is perfect as the width isn't overly narrow and my feet do not feel crowded. I love the extra traction of the Grounder style and will definitely be getting more in other colors.
