K-Swiss Men's Classic VN Shoes

K-Swiss Men's Classic VN Shoes bring over 50 years of tennis heritage to your everyday style. Founded in 1966 by Swiss brothers Art and Ernie Brunner in California, K-Swiss began with one idea: a court shoe that could handle the aggressive side-to-side movements of tennis. Avid skiers and tennis players, the brothers drew on the support of leather ski boots to create the K-Swiss Classic, the first all-leather tennis shoe manufactured in Los Angeles, California.

Today, that innovation is still the company's most recognized and bestselling style, and it has achieved iconic status in the sneaker industry. The Classic VN is the 4th generation of the original. It keeps the trademark elements of the first design and adds a heel tab for a hint of color, along with modern logos that reflect the contemporary, progressive values of the brand today.

Signature design details:

• 5 stripes
• D-ring lacing system
• 3 piece toe construction
• Herringbone brick outsole tread

The Up-spec version of the VN modernizes this classic sneaker with better materials, increased comfort, and improved sustainability. The upper is crafted from more premium full-grain leather. Recycled PET linings and laces, internal components made from recycled ocean plastics, and more eco-friendly foam in the sock liner and internal midsole make this a more sustainable choice.

Materials and construction:

• Leather upper
• Textile tongue/collar
• Rubber outsole
• IMEVA midsole
• Ortholite sock liner
• Lace closure

Born out of innovation, the Classic has evolved into a statement of timeless, simple design. It expresses a passion for quality and craftsmanship and remains an enduring symbol of authentic tennis heritage.
