Johnny Drama didn't want to give a girl a ticket to the premiere of Aquaman because she was top tall.

A tall-top, not to be confused with a high-top, is another name for a sneaker boot that extends far above the ankle. What differentiates this footwear from a high-top is that it is much taller in height. It is, however, not a boot because it does not include a distinct heel and bears the look of a tall sneaker more than that of a boot. These sneakers are not very common, but in recent years have been popularized in men's sizes by athletic footwear companies for their versatility during the winter season. They're usually made more breathable to compensate for their height, but they also provide a contemporary look to the classic tall snow boot.
I copped the limited edition tall-tops the other day; I heard they're selling out quick. I can't say I regret it, but they're definitely not as comfortable as most of my other shoes so they're staying in the closet until the weather hits 40°.
