Originally released in 1982, the T500 was designed to bring superior quality to a versatile on-court style. While the reintroduced T500 is designed more for leisure than competition, everything that made the T500 a great tennis shoe then, makes it a timeless classic now. The upper features pigskin suede and nubuck construction and perforated toebox detailing, for a premium take on the familiar look. A polyurethane midsole offers an understated hint of 1980s tech, that stands out from the vulcanized soles of older court models. The design is rounded out with the elegant simplicity of a predominantly white colorway, suitable for any situation and any surface.
