Dreaming of the Eighties. Our Ball Star sneakers have an American college vibe caught between a hoop shot and a skateboard ride. This men's model with a gray suede upper features a navy-blue nubuck star and a silver-colored laminated leather heel tab. The toe in white crackle suede, the insert on the back in cream-colored nappa leather, and the cream-colored laces add the finishing touch: beautiful things that never go out of fashion.
