My PF. Flyers had zero break-in time and never gave me a single blister
Comfort is so important to me when getting dressed. I like wearing looser garments, soft fabrics, and cozy footwear. While I own dozens of shoes, I love the classic look of high-top sneakers (especially in all-white). Nike and Converse have always been staples in my wardrobe, but they're taking a back seat to my new favorite brand: PF. Flyers.
The female-owned company has been around for decades and is best known for being seen in the 1993 coming-of-age film The Sandlot; even my mom wore its low-top sneakers when she was younger. It gave me a pair of its Allston Hi-Top Sneakers to test, and I've been wearing them everywhere for the past few weeks, from running errands to taking walks around the
neighborhood after work. Out of all the platform sneakers I own, these are by far the most comfortable, and I didn't even have to break them in.

They have a 2-inch platform, which I like because they give me a bit of height, and are designed with rubber toe caps and a woven diamond logo on the ankle. Plus, the canvas uppers are soft and flexible and the soles feel substantial.
The unisex shoes are available in black, sea salt, and sage in whole and half sizes ranging from 5 to 13. At first, my sneakers felt snug, but the canvas stretched out for a perfect fit. The cushy insole also won me over — I wore them for more than 10 hours and I didn't experience foot pain or get a blister.
According to the brand, the recycled memory foam sockliner and flexible midsole offer 360-degree comfort and premium cushioning. As you're running out the door, the heel pull will make it easy to get the sneakers on and off. They also have a diamond pattern etched in the rubber outsoles for a sturdy grip.

My other sneakers haven't been seeing as much wear since the Allston Hi-Tops moved into my closet. Whether you want something cheeky and playful or sleek and modern, these shoes are a great option. The platform sneakers are sophisticated enough to wear with linen pants for work or a cute dress or skirt for date night. They also instantly elevate my simple jeans and T-shirt outfits, and I can't wait to wear them with my cut-off shorts, cargo skirts, and flowy dresses this summer.
Being comfortable never goes out of style, so consider investing in a pair of PF. Flyers high-tops. Keep scrolling to shop the canvas sneakers in additional colors.
