Dassler for Puma “Hesselberg” Sneakers
If these don’t make you want to toss those Chucks, I don’t know what will. The same classic basketball inspiration gets a major upheaval with these Rudolph Dassler-designed beauties. Soft-grain leather uppers is a serious plus when compared to canvas, but you won’t miss out on a tight-grip leather sole that echoes shoes of bygone days. The classic ankle patch is just icing on the cake for retro-lovers– just don’t let admirers get too close, or they could try to steal your style.

They are quite nice, like a bad-ass version of all black chucks with a rugged distressed appeal, they could probably even pass off as boots.
