Italy might not be the first place that comes to mind when you think of streetwear, but we love the slight throwback vibe of Diadora sneakers. Wait, you're saying, that name isn't Italian, is it? No — it's Greek for “sharing gifts and honors,” which is a pretty generous, if slightly nonsequitur, brand ethos! They started out making mountain boots in the 1940s and shifted to streetwear in the 1960s. Ever since then, they've kept a tight edit of classic sneaker shapes in very cool color combinations. Like this classic nod to B. Elite's golden era, '80s grass court tennis — finished with a unique stonewashing and waxing process that does the breaking in for you. So they're comfortable from the first wear (and even have an intentionally scuffy, grass-like patina so you look like you just got finished playing a few rounds). We love the extra character.
