There is something unbeatable about a classic French canvas high-top. Spring Court has been doing this since 1936, and the B2 is the absolute proof of their expertise. It is clean, understated, and carries that distinct Parisian art-school vibe without trying too hard. The heavy-duty white cotton canvas upper feels sturdy but softens up beautifully with wear. Underneath, you get their signature vulcanised rubber sole featuring those distinct four ventilation holes. They actually keep your feet breathing when you are running around London all day. Inside, there is a removable polyurethane insole topped with cotton, making them far more cushioned than your average retro trainer. Throw them on with cropped denim, loose fatigues, or even a relaxed suit. Plus, you can literally toss them in the washing machine at 30 degrees when they start looking a bit too lived-in.
