Directly from Tory Burch - A classic court sneaker, updated for superior comfort, fit and flexibility. The Howell has the look of a Seventies tennis shoe, with our signature design elements. Exceptionally lightweight, the layered sole is made from a soft cushioned midsole and a performance outsole that's extremely flexible, with high-rebound EVA for traction. Our iconic double 'T', in plated brass, is embedded into the padded leather heel tab. Tory Burch Official Site.
