The Shoes Are Made To Provide All-Day Comfort

A blend of military grit and everyday resilience, The Grounder Low-Top Black/Sea Salt is rooted in WWII-era performance. We first developed The Grounder for soldiers in the 1940s. Today, this sneaker channels the spirit of mid-century flight with sleek, modern styling and a refined, unique colorway.

Bridging military heritage and contemporary appeal, this rugged sneaker reflects authenticity while bringing an enduring aesthetic to your daily wardrobe. A 12oz canvas shell, waxed cotton laces, and tonal stitching ensure the sneaker ages beautifully while staying structurally sound. Every detail matters: the sea salt accents echo the clean lines and contrast of early cockpit interiors, while the Posture Foundation wedge offers long-lasting comfort. These are the sneakers that launched P.F. Flyers into history, re-engineered for everyday wear for the modern explorer.
