CATCHBALL® Original Plus canvas sneakers

Korean brand CATCHBALL's styles are inspired by 1950s-1960s European military-issue pairs and the canvas shoes worn on American playgrounds in that era. A timeless silhouette thoughtfully constructed with sturdy six-ounce canvas uppers and vulcanized rubber outsoles, these comfortable, durable sneakers are built to get better with age. And, word to the wise: J.Crew is the only place in the U.S. where you'll find this pair. Fun fact: Vulcanization is a process where cross-links are formed between rubber molecules for improved elasticity and resilience. CATCHBALL proudly manufactures their soles in one of Korea's few remaining vulcanized-rubber factories.
