Anachronorm’s New Athletic Shoe = Great Driving Shoe

13 years ago
1 min read



One of my favorite brands out of Japan, Anachronorm, has released their new Paradise Rubber Athletic Shoe. It looks like they would make amazing driving shoes you could wear without looking like one of those guys who is wearing driving shoes (I know I am guilty of this at times). Picking up styling from WWII era US Army Converse trainers, the heavy-duty black rubber looks like it is ready for some scuff free heel-toe action. Offered in Indigo, Natural, and Brown. 


Visit the Anachronorm dealer page HERE to find a retailer near you. I am going to have to get in touch with Union Los Angeles to see if they are getting these in. I think I’ll go with the indigo.
