High tops for the holidays! K-Swiss does a limited release on a Classic, with a twist (0r two) — a high top in fall colors. My favorite is this pair of true blood red kicks in patent leather. No pun intended: they are pretty killer. It’s not often that you see an old style redone like this, but it looks like the California style may be taking some cold-weather cues. (Interesting note: K-Swiss shoes were originally high top boots modified years ago to be tennis shoes.) There’s also the colorway above, bronze upper with a white sole that according to the fashion blogs are so very now.

Seeing as though the Classic white high tops aren’t being released until 2010, grab a pair of these while you can or test out your luck and enter to WIN a Limited Edition pair of your own by telling us 1 person or thing that represents true classic style to you.
