Product overview
About casual high-top shoes
Casual high-tops share their construction with streetwear high-tops but are designed for everyday wear: cleaner panels, softer padding and coordinated colours. The reference shows navy panels on white leather with a padded collar and a white sole.
Collar height and padding decide comfort and how the shoe sits with trousers, so they are agreed on the fit sample. Leather or synthetic uppers suit cupsole construction; canvas versions suit vulcanised construction.
The style fits youth and family ranges as well as adult lifestyle collections.
OEM: your design
Send your pattern and colourways. We match collar height and sole and sample each colour.
ODM: developed with you
Share references; we develop a casual high-top pattern and propose materials and sole.

Sizing and specifications
Sizing and technical specifications
Size conversions are approximate and vary by last and brand; they are not a production grading chart, and your own brand size chart replaces them if you have one. Technical measurements are set on your last and samples, recorded on the approved sample and controlled in bulk.
Suitable for family ranges; children's sizes need their own last and sole sizes.

How to measure foot length
- 01Stand on a sheet of paper with full weight on the foot, heel against a wall.
- 02Mark the tip of the longest toe and measure from the wall to the mark in millimetres.
- 03Measure both feet and use the longer one; measure later in the day when feet are largest.
- 04Compare with the foot-length column, not the shoe's outside length.

Testing and compliance
Frameworks relevant to this style. Obligations depend on where and how the product is sold, and the brand placing it on the market carries them. General information, not legal advice.
EU REACH restrictions (Annex XVII)Market obligation
Restricts chemicals in articles sold in the EU, including chromium VI in leather in contact with skin (entry 47, limit 3 mg/kg), certain azo dyes, PAHs in rubber parts and dimethyl fumarate. Leather and component suppliers' test reports are collected per order where a buyer requires them.
EU footwear labelling (Directive 94/11/EC)Market obligation
Footwear sold in the EU must indicate the material of the upper, the lining and sock, and the outsole, using the directive's pictograms or wording. Labels are produced to the buyer's market requirements.
EU General Product Safety Regulation (EU) 2023/988Market obligation
Applies since 13 December 2024 to consumer products placed on the EU market, including traceability information on the product or packaging. The obligations sit with the economic operator placing the product on the market; we supply the production information they need.
UK footwear composition labellingMarket obligation
The UK keeps equivalent requirements for indicating the composition of upper, lining and sock, and outsole on footwear sold to consumers.
US requirements for children's productsMarket obligation
Children's footwear sold in the US falls under CPSIA requirements (including lead limits and tracking labels) where applicable; testing is carried out by accredited third-party labs arranged per order.
Physical test methods (ISO footwear methods)Optional test, on request
Commonly requested tests include whole-shoe upper-to-sole adhesion (ISO 17708), outsole abrasion (ISO 20871), outsole flex resistance (ISO 17707), upper flex resistance (ISO 17694) and colourfastness of footwear components (ISO 17700).

Sampling, quality control and shipping explainedFAQ
Casual High-Top Shoes: questions buyers ask
Can you add an inside zip?
Yes, an inside zip for easy entry is common on casual and children's high-tops.
Can we make children's sizes?
Yes, on junior lasts with matching sole sizes. Children's products may need market-specific testing.
Leather or canvas?
Leather suits cupsole construction; canvas suits vulcanised construction, which is confirmed in the feasibility review.
How soft can the collar be?
Padding thickness and foam density are sampled for comfort.
Can colours match our range?
Yes, matched to your colour standards.
What do you need to quote?
References, materials, size range including any junior sizes, quantities per colour and branding.
Can we combine several casual styles in one order?
Yes. Styles sharing leathers or soles can be planned together, which helps with material minimums. Each style still has its own size breakdown.
What information do you need for a casual-shoe quotation?
References or a tech pack, leather and sole preferences, size range, quantity per colour, branding and packaging requirements, and your destination market.
Can we submit our own design instead of this reference?
Yes. This page is a reference only; the RFQ accepts your own design files, sketches and samples without choosing a reference style.
