Definitely I love my PK. Recollections of adolescence bring me. The form, style and comfort are top. The foot feels very good with them. For some reason I am charmed with them with very short socks and also without them. They give me a special sensation to my feet. The classic PK are wonderful. Congratulations PK for making the classic Royal Canvas again.

An outstanding pair of sneakers that are comfortable to wear, offer a lot of support and traction. I bought the black-on-black ones as they can be worn for most occasions. I wear a comparable Converse in a 9.0, but the Pro-Keds fit me fine in a size 10.5. If you know your Converse size, you might want to go up a size in-a-half in the Pro-Keds. As always, Zappos.com came through just fine.

Pro Keds hi canvas was the sneaker when I was a child. I always love the PK, and now I am very happy because I can wear the same sneaker again. For me PK Hi and Low canvas are perfect... design, color, confort, elegance. I love Pro Keds a lot!

They were perfect, just like when I was a kid. I like the insert in the shoe. I just wish they had the original blue pro-keds label that goes on the heel of the sneaker.

Vintage Pro Keds - These are a top quality vintage sneaker which have not been available for many years. I love them although I wish they were available in low top. I found low top available on another web site but I am a loyal Zappos customer and will wait (but not too long) for Zappos to offer them. Great sneaker.

Additional Brand Information

PRO-Keds began in 1949 as a brand aimed at sports and athletic performance. Based on quality, durability and a solid reputation, PRO-Keds became one of the leading names in athletic footwear. The first PRO-Keds shoe, originally released as the Royal Tread, was the Royal, a classic canvas basketball shoe in high and low tops featuring an identifying red and blue power stripe adjacent to the toe. The Royal was worn and endorsed by the then Minneapolis Lakers, the first-ever NBA® champions, who won five consecutive titles in PRO-Keds, led by the great George Mikan.

By the late 70's, PRO-Keds was worn by a portfolio of NBA stars and had become tantamount with the biggest personalities in sports. The athletic shoe brand grew into a full performance line for athletes, making PRO-Keds one of the oldest shoe brands in the world.

Many styles attained cult status in the neighborhoods of New York among the streetwise who adopted PRO-Keds shoes as the first real sneakers with style. PRO-Keds became the shoe of choice with b-boys everywhere and earned its place as a true icon of early hip-hop culture.

After an absence of nearly 20 years, PRO-Keds shoes are reissuing some classic styles from its archives such as the Royal Canvas, the Court King and the historic Royal Master basketball shoe, bringing to life, once again, the heritage and history of this athletic brand.

To this day, PRO-Keds continues to stay rooted in its heritage with its classic styles while reinvigorating the footwear category with designs that capture today’s popular culture trends. In addition, Pro-Keds continues to progressively release authentic sports originals in a wide array of colors and materials, staying at the top of their game!

Pro-Keds Royal Hi Canvas - Had these as a kid, waited 30 years to get them again. Hope production of these classics never stops.

Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked
Improvements Helps - The removable insoles reduce the shoe size by 1/2; therefore, you should order a half larger than marked if you have a wide or irregular foot. On the other hand, the arch support goes from none to moderate. Perhaps, converse could take some lessons from Pro-Keds and PF-Flyers when they consider their Chuck Taylors for improvements.

Better than Converse! I prefer wearing Pro Keds to Converse All Stars. I find them to be wider and a great shoe. I buy them slightly larger and put an aftermarket gel insole in them to greatly improve comfort and support. Zappos is amazing to deal with, quick shipping and easy ordering.
