Pro-Keds Sky is the brand's newest model, joining the lineup this September and taking its place alongside Pro-Keds' historic silhouettes.
Pro-Keds Sky: A Legacy Straight Off the Court
Sky draws on a historic 1980s basketball sneaker, held in the Pro-Keds 1949 archive. The original stood out for its signature double side stripe and a build made for the game.
Today, Pro-Keds is bringing it back, reworked into a sneaker made for everyday wear. It's part of a bigger story: from postwar basketball courts to the streets of 1970s New York, where the brand became an icon of streetwear.
Design: True to the Archive, Built with Modern Materials
Pro-Keds Sky arrives in an updated take on materials, while holding on to what made the original stand out:
- signature twin side stripe, instantly recognizable,
- padded collar for comfort and ankle support,
- stitched rubber cupsole, built for stability and durability,
- premium leather and suede upper, true to the spirit of the ®Pro-Keds 1949 archive.
The result is a sneaker that blends athletic authenticity with contemporary style, equally at home with longtime fans of the brand and with a new generation discovering it.
Colors in the Collection
Sky launches in a range of colorways built for different moods: from a minimal total white, to contrast pairings, to bolder shades like jade green or dusty pink in the women's lineup. Whatever the mood, every pair keeps the same DNA: leather and suede, the signature twin side stripe, and the red-and-blue sole detail that's become a hallmark across Pro-Keds' heritage models.
Pro-Keds Sky in the Core & Urban Line
Under the "Everyday Pro" manifesto, Sky sits alongside icons like Royal Classic and Racer 77. The new silhouette rounds out the brand's heritage lineup, reworking a classic 1980s basketball sneaker for today.
How to Style the Pro-Keds Sky
Thanks to its versatile design, Sky works across a range of looks.
- Clean and simple: straight-leg jeans or chinos, a basic tee, a light jacket — let the shoe do the talking.
- Streetwear: cargo pants or an oversized hoodie, echoing the sneaker's on-court roots.
- Vintage edge: paired with a leather jacket or denim, for a direct nod to the '80s.
Neutral colorways (total white, black and cream) work best for everyday, go-with-anything wear; bolder pairs are for anyone chasing a standout detail.
Why Choose Pro-Keds Sky
With Sky, Pro-Keds adds a sneaker that blends '80s basketball character, premium materials, and everyday style. It's a model that draws on the archive without simply repeating it, reworking those codes for a new generation of fans.
