Running shoes are some of the best options for walking, and they provide excellent support for a day spent on your feet or the go. The problem is that the performance-minded design of modern running shoes can ruin the look of casual outfits. That’s why retro runners make some of the best casual shoes.
One vintage-inspired style you should have on your radar is Reebok’s Classic Nylon sneaker, which features a sporty yet versatile design. Right now, you can score this old-school sneaker in Pure Grey/White for just $53, over $20 off the regular $75 price. It’s available in men’s sizes between 7.5 and 12 and is designed to run true to size.

Like most of the shoes in Reebok’s Classics line, these feature the Reebok logo next to the Union Jack, for a vibe that’s as British as arguing about Blur and Oasis in a pub. But despite its English roots, Reebok has become a global brand, making shoes for everyone from Shaq to Sigourney Weaver’s Ripley character in Aliens. Their worldwide appeal is reflected by the fact that the British-founded brand was formerly owned by German sneaker giant Adidas and is now based in the US.
The Classic Nylons feature a grippy rubber outsole for comfort on a variety of surfaces, and the mix of nylon and suede materials makes the shoes comfortable, stylish, and more versatile than the all-leather version. The sneakers also feature an EVA midsole and a padded foam sockliner for cushioned comfort.
Shoppers were impressed with the comfort of these shoes, with one writing that they were “very comfortable to walk in,” and another writing, “I walk on concrete all day and these shoes give great support.” The style was also a selling point, with one shopper writing that the shoe “looks great with just about anything.” Shoppers mentioned returning to this style after wearing them when they first came out, with one writing, “I had these in the ’90s and I loved them. I still love them.”
The Reebok Classic Nylon is big on ’90s style, and at just $53 on Zappos, they’re available for a ’90s price, too.
