. In the 21st century athletes and non-athletes alike are stepping out on the pavement in sleek cunning edge high top sneakers. The most popular high top sneakers the Converse Chuck Taylor All-Stars and the Nike Air Force, editions 1-3.

Style

High tops are generally considered to be a casual shoe. However, high school students have been photographed wearing funky high tops with tuxedos to their high school prom, and even the older set has embraced pairing high top sneakers with dressed up outfits. High tops are a versatile seasonal shoe and can be worn with long pants in the winter and shorts in the summer. Other style options include:

Wearing high tops with contrasting laces. Use the web to search How To websites to view tutorials on how to lace your high tops creatively. If you are wearing black high tops you can change average white laces for red, green or yellow laces.

Pairing high tops with narrower jeans and strategically stuffing the pant cuffs behind the tongue of the high tops.

Choosing high tops with Velcro straps instead of laces is another trendy option. Brands like Ben Sherman and Vans offer cool version of high tops with varying features; some options include laces and Velcro straps.

Matching your high tops with your shirt. Converse high tops are popular and come in a variety of hues. Many teens to 20 something males prefer bright colored shirts that match their bright colored high tops. For example, you may already own a basic orange t-shirt or sweater. Wear your sweater with dark denim jeans and orange Converse high tops.

Hint: Whatever option you choose make sure you dress your age. We're not a fan of sagging baggy pants, and we cringe when we see older men clinging on to their last bit of youth and opting for this disorganized look. Older men can wear high tops without looking immature. The key is to select pieces that fit your body and look in the mirror and ask yourself, 'What's my age again?' before exiting the comfort of your home.

Style Tip: Plaid or checked casual long sleeved collard dress shirt + soft v-neck cotton or poly blend sweater vest + straight leg denim jeans + high top sneakers. Roll or push up the sleeves for a more casual worn look. Add a fedora hat as an accessory. If you're daring wear a bow tie.
