The 80s US tennis sneaker brand that made a comeback
Autry Action Shoes – known as “the shoe with the American flag” embody the 80s vintage vibe like no other brand. Since its founding in Texas in 1982, the brand has been selective in developing only a few signature silhouettes to its range. The iconic style has become a timeless fashion piece and is sought after in high end boutiques by fashion mavens who truly appreciate high quality craftmanship. A pair of Autry Action Shoes will remain a staple season after season.
“Tennis shoes are built to help you deal decisively with fuzzy orbs flying towards your head at 100 miles an hour”
The brand took an unexpected 20-year break after the unfortunate passing of Jim Autry. In 2019, the brand was luckily rejuvenated by a French pair of vintage sneaker lovers, Alberto Raengo and Régis Billard. They want to combine the North American heritage of Autry sneakers with European know-how. This way Autry actions shoes can set itself apart from the rest. Not much has changed since the 80s. The new reiteration of the Autry action shoes stays close to the original design. The only contrast from the old school all-white tennis etiquette from back in the day is that the shoes are also produced in various bold colours.
