Wonderful, classic shoe. My daughter has them in red and wears them every time she steps out of the house. They are comfortable and fashionable and come with the incredible Zappos service. What more could you ask for?

I wear a size 9 and I ordered a wide. The wide works but the shoe is too long. I returned it for an 8-1/2 W. That should work pretty well, haven\'t received it yet. This is a great shoe to wear with jeans especially in the desert.

Best. Sneakers. Ever. Just bought another pair in red so had to leave another review. Love the comfy new feel on the inside and the squishy terry. Still fun when you get 'em wet, too! Go with skinny jeans or a skirt, or even a pair of shorts. Only gripe is you need more wide widths in the colors. My dancer's toes like lots of room to roam inside my Keds. Thanks Keds! Thanks Zappos!

Remember how it felt when you were a kid and got a brand new pair of Keds? Well, it still feels the same. My new sneakers fit me perfectly. I have spent a lot of time at the beach and my feet are very wide, as a result. Keds offers a size for every foot. The rise on the back is low so no blister, as with most new shoes. No "break-in" period. Best of all, my "Goth" grandson laughed because they looked so much like his new shoes. I could not be happier. Really! I bought them just because I wanted to match a new knit pantset, but I will be back for more pairs in the summer. And I will purchase them from Zappos because of the inventory.

Very comfortable shoes that are fashionable at the same time. I bought this in navy and it goes with everything. Squishy soft on the inside so you don't need socks, if you don't want. For Australians: Order this in the same size you use in Australian shoes. I got confused with the US sizing and ordered a size larger, which was too big. I exchanged it for my normal Australian size and its perfect! You can't go wrong with these shoes, in my opinion! Love them!

Additional Brand Information

In 1916, Keds® was introduced as the first national athletic and lifestyle footwear brand. It all started with the simple canvas shoe, which at that time was called a sneaker. The term 'sneaker' was invented by the Keds advertising agency because the rubber soles made the shoes so quiet.

Since the beginning, Keds has created shoes that are classic, stylish and offer authentic characteristics. Committed to creating quality footwear, all Keds shoes are made using durable canvas or leather, soft padded insoles and durable outsoles.

Nanette Lepore and Keds joined forces to bring a collection of shoes that are sophisticated, fun and fresh. Nanette Lepore for Keds® has taken the traditional Keds philosophy and added vibrant materials and bold patterns to create a look that is edgy and modern.

Keds Kids has a commitment to creating the safest and best performing kids products. Keds Kids shoes are rigorously tested for comfort, durability and fit. You can purchase a pair of Keds Kids shoes and know that you are doing something good for your child.

Leading actresses, athletes and style icons throughout the years have worn Keds shoes. Today, Mischa Barton continues this trend as the spokesmodel for Keds. Keds shoes has a myriad of styles from the classic champion sneaker and vintage inspired distressed slip-ons to ballet flats and sportier sneakers. Keds shoes have stood the test-of-time and the future will continue to bring fashionable styles combined with innovative advancements in performance and materials.

Love them! They're so comfortable and so cute on! I bought the red and they're the perfect red and look really cute with skinny jeans! Wear socks with them the first few times to wear them in. They're pretty true to size, too. These are a must have!

These are great. They fit nicely (true to size) and are soft and comfy inside. I was looking for a kick around shoe that wasn’t in any way athletic. Just something simple to wear with shorts or boyfriend jeans. Found ‘em. If you’re looking for a comfortable shoe to wear while you’re running errands, these are perfect.

I purchased these shoes because I wear an EEE and was looking for a pair of shoes under $60. I love the look of the shoes,but they are just not wide enough. Also, I have high arches and there is absolutely NO arch support. My feet hurt by the end of the day and now they just sit in my closet,I am going to end up giving them to Goodwill. When are the manufacturers going to start making shoes I can wear for more than 3 hours at a time?

What can I say? I love them. They are super comfortable and are the shoes I grab to knock around in. There are classic for good reason.

I am very pleased with my Ked sneakers. It is so hard to find shoes in narrow sizes and I had given up on finding narrow sneakers. My Keds fit very well, narrow enough for my AA feet but not too constricting. They are very comfortable and a nice alternative to my, comparatively, clunky running shoes. I'm also pleased with Zappos service. The ordering process was straightforward and my shoes arrived in excellent condition and in the time frame promised.

I was buying these shoes for a costume I needed and these shoes were exactly what I needed to make my costume complete. I ran across the website late though, having never even heard of Zappos (however, I do notice the commercials on TV all the time now!). I needed the shoes by the weekend and I only had two days to get them in time! I was in such a hurry to check out I forgot to click ship overnight. I called the 1-800 number and asked a representative to please charge me and fix the shipment so I could make sure I got those shoes. Well, she told me she was making me a VIP customer and would send me my shoes in the time I needed for free! I was still worried seeing I had to pray for ups to get them to me fast too, but they were there the next afternoon by 3 pm when I got off from work. I had ordered them at 4 pm the day before! You guys were so helpful and made everything super easy! Looking forward to ordering from Zappos again soon!

I have these in all available colors, but was particularly happy to find them in red. Since I wear an 8 1/2 ww it is most difficult to find these shoes in anything other than white, black or tan. They are wonderfully comfortable and are a nice change from athletic shoes.

My boyfriend scraped his Vans and now wears Keds; they look good with slim jeans. The low profile look is in! And hot!

These shoes rock. They go with everything, and they make me look cooler than everyone I know. Not a whole lot of arch support going on, but other than that, I'm in love. As always, Zappos is the best website ever. Love you guys.

I wear a EE and it's always a challenge to find shoes. This time around, I needed a light shoe to pack for a trip to South Korea. I wear sandals all summer long, but in Asia it might be better to wear something closed-toe not to offend anyone. I was pleased to find a basic sneaker for such a great price!

I bought these sneakers to go with capris that I like to wear in the summer. They were comfortable right out of the box. (Except for the back of the heel, tends to rub a little if you're not wearing socks.) Basically, they are the sneakers you remember as a kid (if you were a kid in the 1960's). Would recommend to a friend.

These shoes are super comfortable and super cute! Great for wearing without socks because they are lined in terry. They go with everything and really flatter the leg. The perfect summer shoes.

Ihave been wearing these shoes for so many years I can\'t remember having anything else. They are great for casual, comfortable walking shoes that go with everything. I do have to replace them every other year or so as the canvas wears down easily, but at this price it\'s worth it.

You asked for it...\r\nI bought 3 pairs of the champion Keds because the 2 pairs I bought 3 years ago are now gardening shoes — scuffed, but still comfortable and durable.\r\nMy new Keds were colorful, but an absolute disappointment in every aspect of quality! Gone is all the padding in the tongue and heel, the inner lining and arch support has disappeared, and worst of all, the heel height was shortened — making for a fun look, but zero on quality and comfort.\r\nShame on Keds for ruining a classic! I will not buy another pair.
