these are the era-defining pieces of
footwear that are crucial attire for
anyone who values their sports style
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
iconic sneakers k-swiss tubes we let the
dogs out emphasis on we who did it we
did it for this list we’ve chosen
sneakers that have a revolutionary or
unique design and that perhaps even had
an impact on the world of pop culture
number 10 the 574 s New Balance doesn’t
sound that flaw but on your foot this is
an incredible shoe considered a
signature shoe for New Balance even by
the company itself this trainer is now
one of the most versatile all-purpose
shoes on the market bizarrely they were
first created from leftover material
from the company’s 576 model but the 574
s are now fully customizable in over 80
colors making them a popular choice for
both men and women
despite largely being employed as a
fashion sneaker nowadays the sneaker is
still packed full of trademark New
Balance technology that makes it
incredibly rugged while remaining
exceedingly comfortable what happened to
you feed what do you mean these are my
407 oh the 407 s can I see them yep he’s
off for a lot of support right Wow come
on number nine the pump Reebok green
rock pop pop pop embrace the first shoe
to ever utilize an internal inflation
mechanism this revolutionary piece of
footwear would make it onto this list
for its sheer innovation alone because
of its fairly clean high-top design the
eye is drawn to the large orange pump in
the shape of a basketball found on the
tongue which sets Reeboks pump apart
from other similar styles of the era
when Reebok came with this pump
technology that would squeeze your feet
tight and make you feel the support I
think it was amazing the inflation
anchored the foot for unrivaled support
and a custom fit making it ideal for a
variety of sports like tennis and
running to name a few inspiring numerous
other styles of pump shoes Reeboks model
will always be remembered for first
bringing to the market this feat of
Footwear engineering so Michael my man
if you want to fly first class pump up
an air out number eight the Air Max 90
Nike and it’s classic to air max 90s I
you know I could buy those all day long
called air max three until it was
renamed for its launch in the year 2000
the air max 90 wasn’t the first Nike
trainer to have a visible air but it is
the air max design iteration that
perhaps stood the test of time the best
the original infrared colorway famous
for features that accentuated the size
of the cushion made it a classic and the
number of other designs that have
followed is a testament to its
popularity even former President George
HW Bush got his own pair in the
signature style except his are adorned
with a name befitting of a man who once
led the free world with the Air Max
replaced by air revin authentic fans in
size to the shoe synonymous with skaters
and surfers has grown far beyond a
simple functional piece of canvas
Footwear so simple is the authentic
style that it has influenced a number of
counterfeiters or imitators of the
canvas design in today’s society
this model is now a vital part of both
male and female fashion collections with
its minimalistic style and inherent
coolness that make it a shoe for almost
any occasion another piece of footwear
that was the starting point for the
entire brand fans authentic epitomizes
freedom and liberty in fashion vans go
are you Lane based on my vans lime-green
yeah fly to the space scene number 6
classic leather Reebok I remember when
y’all had the high tops of the straps I
like a : one of the first members of
Reeboks is franchise 5 collection the
classic leathers uncomplicated design
meant it quickly evolved from being a
popular running shoe into something
ready-made for new color ways to be
honest I think like I mean it the suede
on these things are insane as other
trainers have come packed with all sorts
of space-age technology this one
simplicity has been the key to its
enduring appeal the sleek design is the
go-to shape whenever you think about the
brand and even after 30 years it remains
an iconic shoe that’s both functional
and fashionable it’s like people only do
things because they get paid and that’s
just really sad
number five suede puma not like classic
pea Pumas you know it’ll never get old
it’s just the timeless look a staple
that illustrates what Houmas had to
offer for over 45 years now the white
Pumas wished sweeping up the shoe
against the backdrop of a striking color
set it apart from its competitors what I
like about the shoe is they’re really
durable good suede not many shoes could
claim to have played a part in important
moments in history but Tommy Smith and
John Carlos as black Suede’s were right
next to them on the podium at the 1968
Olympics barely changing since its
inception puma suede has grown with
culture becoming a favorite for b-boy
crews throughout the 80s and remaining
popular today the new shoes
number for Air Force One
Nike named after the president of United
States’s airplane this was the first
basketball shoe to utilize the nike air
technology laying the foundation for
countless numbers of on and off court
Footwear in the future coming in low mid
and high top styles the shoes influence
is far-reaching first inspiring
legendary shoe designer Tinker Hatfield
to leave architecture and later becoming
the target of songs featuring Nelly and
Kanye West the Air Force One has such a
solid legacy it’s easy to forget that
it’s merely a sneaker number three the
superstar adidas the adidas superstar is
one of the most successful sports shoes
of all time with unique design elements
such as the all leather upper the adidas
superstar has grown to be one of the
most influential shapes both in
basketball and hip-hop culture wait a
minute I know you
you’re Kareem abdul-jabbar you played
basketball for the Los Angeles Lakers
when Kareem abdul-jabbar wasn’t acting
an airplane he was donning his
superstars on the courts for the Lakers
and when Run DMC’s looked be complete
without the sneakers laces undone and
tongue thrust out yeah the whole taking
him out the box putting him up on my
dresser and going to bed
looking at the 1970s and 80s would look
significantly different without this
legendary sneaker pounding the streets
and the courts number two Air Jordan one
Nike the greatest player to of ever
played basketball would inevitably
require a shoe to match his dedication
innovation and class all these are
attributes the first iteration of the
Air Jordan series had in abundance
defying convention since its inception
its use of color for an on-court shoe
cost Jordan a five thousand dollar fine
every single game but he wore him anyway
all this turned into an ingenious
marketing ploy for Nike as the shoe
gained a rebellious image even before
its general release to the public on
October 18th the NBA threw them out of
the game with a silhouette ideal for all
sorts of colorways they really are a
blank canvas for your feet I’ve got six
kids you know how much money that is to
put them through school you know how
many Air Jordans six black kids where
before we lace up our top pick here are
a few honorable mentions

basically spawned Nike I probably kissed
a girl wearing Stan Smith just one just
the one
number one Chuck Taylor all-stars
converse Marky converse founder the

the oldest most popular and best-selling
basketball shoe ever reportedly 60% of
all Americans own or have owned a pair
of these iconic canvas shoes and just
think their design is basically just the
same as it was in the early 20th century
the first athletic shoe that looked as
good as it functioned it helped converse
become the dominant force in the sneaker
industry until of course the emergence
of other big brands
Warren not only on the basketball court
but also by Olympic athletes and
soldiers training for world war ii
