    Pleased in Pennsylvania - I recently purchased a pair of Tretorn Tennis Shoes for a friend for their birthday. My friend was extremely pleased with the gift stating that the tennis shoe was made with quality materials and also offered a great comfort. I would highly recommend purchasing a pair of Tretorn Shoes for family members and/or friends.

    Tretorns revisited - I have been searching for Tretorns for about two years- I was so excited to find them and they are just as I remember (except the inside is the same color as the gull wing- it used to be white). These shoes take me back to eighth grade and I love it!!

    Tretorn gull wing shoes - I was sent exactly what I ordered. The shipping time was great. The only problem is they do not come in wide widths and that is what I need, so I will be giving them away. I used to buy Tretorns at a shoe store that no longer carries them, but they had them in wide widths. If you ever start making them in wide widths again let me know. Thank You

    Foot winked in MA - I have been wearing Tretorns for over 30 years and these certainly don't feel or look like any Tretorns I've ever had in the past. They are extremely stiff and very uncomfortable. As far as I'm concerned they are unwearable. They really don't feel or look like the real thing.

    About Tretorn

    of New Styles!

    Notify me when new styles of Tretorn are added to the website

    Add This Brand to My Favorites
    Founded by Henry Dunker at the end of the 19th century in Sweden, Tretorn was an innovator in footwear from the moment it was launched. Having built up a reputation for dependability and discreet luxury with its iconic rubber boots, Tretorn was also the first company to launch the pressureless tennis ball.

    The company's association with life on and off court rapidly created something of a cult following surrounding the brand, a status which was firmly secured when Wimbledon winners took to the grass in Tretorn in the 1970s. Inspired by the high profile and success of the brand, Tretorn's canvas and leather Nylites were the only shoe in which to be seen wearing on North American campuses throughout the 1980s. Lean and understated, the Tretorn sneaker was the first luxury sports shoe on the market.

    Tretorn’s expertise in rubber-made products demonstrates a consistent commitment to quality and brand over hype, offering a collection most appreciated by those with a practical sensibility and a lifestyle largely enjoyed outside. Because Tretorn celebrates a lifestyle, largely lived outside, Tretorn ensures that labor is not exploited and the production methods are continuously revised for the good of the consumers and the environment. This commitment to sustainability and safe products is embodied in their PVC-Free policy for all of Tretorn men's shoes and Tretorn women's shoes. It is a business practice for which Tretorn is widely recognized as industry leaders.

    Love them! I loved these shoes 20 years ago and am thrilled to own a pair again! They are so comfortable, they are like wearing slippers. They also look very cute--with shorts, capri's or jeans. They look clean cut and "crisp".

    My Tretorns - My Tretorn Nylite canvas sneakers are the best shoes I have ever owned. I buy them all the time in assorted colors. They are my choice for all my summer casual wear. I wash them in the washing machine and hang them to dry. They always look fresh, new & clean.

    Classics, love them! I have always thought Tretorns run a little long, so going down 1/2 a size is a good idea. But I love these shoes!

    My old friend has returned!! For a long time I wore the canvas Tretorn and loved them----but-----for a long time I could not find them in the stores. Finally I asked my daughter in Atlanta if she was still wearing the disreputable canvas Tretorn’s she had and she said "No, I got new ones" so that is when I found out about Zappos. I have two pairs of leather ones, but love the canvas. The arch fits beautifully, but the tongue needs to be about 3/4 inch longer. I am so delighted to have them and thank you for the free shipping and prompt delivery.

    Tretorn’s forever! Tretorn’s were my favorite shoe when I was a kid. I had to have them in every color. I was so happy to see that they were available again. They are just as great as I remember and I think I will have to buy additional colors. They are just a little bit stiff across the top when you first wear them but they break in quickly.

    Loved them!!! These are the most comfortable shoes I own. I used to buy them in the past and then had a hard time finding them. I was happy to that Zappos.com started carrying Tretorn’s. I feel like myself again with these shoes on.

    Just like I remembered them! I love these shoes! Very comfortable; the first shoes athletic or otherwise that didn't give me blisters the first time I wore them! I have very flat feet and have a hard time finding comfy shoes. I think I'll order another pair . . .

    NOT the original - Looks like the original, but feels like a stiff pair of Keds with a slight bit of cushion. No way can these compare to the Tretorns that were made in the 80's (when I last wore them). I definitely wear an 8.5 and perhaps larger, but I ordered the 8 and I'm glad I did. These shoes are l-o-n-g. Although not nearly as cushy I am keeping them because I like the way they look.

    Anonymous from New Jersey - This is no where near as comfortable as the "old Tretorn." They cut me right across the top of my foot where the laces start. I thought they would give with wear but they haven't. If I hadn't of worn them outside I would send them back.
