Nylites, born in 1967, were soon regarded as the first luxury sports shoe. These canvas tennis shoes reigned supreme on courts around the world in the 1970s.
With a distinct "v" toe shape and lightweight rubber outsole, today's Nylite maintains the same timeless design.
The Tretorn Nylite Canvas features a soft lining that provides sockless comfort. Traditionalists favor the tennis whites, but the color-contrasting Gullwing logo and lining offer a fun alternative.

This is not the same shoe I grew up with. It feels cheap and provides no support. It's the last time I will order these. They are no where worth what I paid.

I used to wear these in high-school(late 80's)and always loved them. I needed a pair of shoes to run around in and thought about Tretorns as I didn't want a bulky athletic sneaker. I don't think the canvas is as thick as it used to be but other than that they seem to be as good as I remembered them to be.

I loved Tretorns when I was in highschool. However, these are not actually white. They are off white and very thin canvas. They are not as comfortable as I remember them to be either.
