Vintage Tennis Friday: Spring Court Tennis Sneakers

Spring Court tennis sneakers first hit the scene way back in 1936, when French greats like The Four Horsemen (Jean Borotra, Jacques Brugnon, Henri Cochet, René Lacoste) wore them. Well, they're back, complete with their trademark features, such as the four holes on the either side of the sole, a removable insole and arch support. So they have natural ventilation.

Spring Courts became pop culture items as well, but we'll leave that to Down the Line to explain.
