No worry, no hassle.
I’ve been walking on the lot of our new home, and gotten these shoes plenty dirty! You just throw them in a wash load with bleach, and they look brand new again! The comfort is still there, just like high school keds, without the hassle of socks! The only problem is - we need more colors! I want one of each color of the rainbow!

I wear 9.5 so the sneaker is good length wise. I ordered the wide but a bit wider would be a better fit for me. I will be ordering my other Keds in extra wide. The canvas fabric is thin which makes the sneaker feel flimsy.

Not quite wide enough in the vamp and way too wide in the heel. Returned.

I wore these Keds in the 1990's, but this new pair feels narrower. They fit well, just difficult to "slip" on and off. I'll keep them, they're what I needed and are comfortable.

Overall the shoe fit. I did wish it was a half size bigger, but still was able to dance in them all night at my wedding. It was very comfortable after being in heels all night.

I was so disappointed these didn't fit. I wear and 8 1/2 but these were too big. When I returned them they didn't have my size so I got another style of the Keds in an 8 and the fit perfect. The return processes was super easy.

I ordered my usual size in a wide width and had to return for a half size smaller. My foot is wide, but not too wide. I was afraid based on other reviews that the average width would be too tight. The wide is definitely roomy. I would prefer more room since I plan to take these on a European vacation where I will be doing a lot of walking. They do not have much arch support so I may add my own arch support.

Very comfortable -
These shoes have been very comfortable for me from the first time I wore them... I have very bad feet, and it is next-to-impossible for me to find shoes I can wear, much less summer shoes that I can wear without socks. So, I can put up with them being a little dorky-looking.

Gotta love your Keds -
These are your basic weekend wear sneaker for hot weather. It's difficult to find the slip-on style in stores, but Zappos has a wide variety of them. I love them with or without socks for the summer.

Classic slipon, hard to find other places.
This shoe is hard to find in anything but white. Zappos comes through again with an old classic!

Blast from the Past -
A great shoe. But, what happened to the arch support? Makes the shoe overpriced without it. C'mon Keds, some well thought-out arch support as a basic feature in your shoes, and these puppies would fly off the shelves. Without it, the shoe doesn't quite sing. A shame, because it should. Anything this signature American should be treated with TLC--first corporate, then customer.

Basic Casual -
What you see is what you get with this basic Keds Slip-on. They are comfortable, although slightly large for my AAA foot. I can't complain though, since I usually can't find anything like this in a slender width.

Love these shoes because they are comfortable and they are slip on, so there is no time wasted with laces.

Close to perfect -
Wow! Canvas shoes that come in narrow widths!
Thank you, Keds. Not to sound ungrateful, but could you possibly make them in 10-1/2 so I don't have to upsize to 11, which is a bit long for me?
Socks help and, in fact, the shoes generally feel better with socks -- the insides are scratchy against bare feet. These slip-ons have a comfortable round toe and a bit of arch support -- more would be even better. They have enough cushioning for general use but not quite enough support for serious walking.
I haven't washed them yet, so I can't comment on durability, but at this price, I don't really expect them to last beyond a year or so.
Glad I got them.

Ked's champion -
I had a hard time finding these around where I live. They sell out so fast in the wide widths. I found these to be not as wide as I remember them being, but overall very comfortable.

Washing instructions -
My wife complained about the same staining when they got wet. The problem may be in the products used to wash the shoes. They may contain some material that dissolves the glue.
As the exposed canvas dries it draws water and the dissolved glue from behind the rubber outsole.
I haven't found a laundry detergent that doesn't cause this to happen yet. However, I waited until the canvas dried completely and then sprayed the canvas lightly with dilute bleach -- not enough to get it so wet as to have let the liquid soak in behind the rubber.
The soles dried rather rapidly after that.

What Happened?
I've been wearing these Keds for four years and have always been happy with them. What happened to size 10? I can't seem to order them. Also, I've found that they do not hold up to more than two or three washings (with bleach). They hold stains and the rubber around the edge tends to leave stains while drying (in the sun). I would like to order more of these when you get my size.

I have two pairs of these in Size 9 1/2. One in leather and one in canvas. They fit fine even when I use my half orthotic inserts. I needed to replace the canvas pair and decided to go up to a 10 so I can wear socks in the winter (I wear these as house shoes). Well, I can just about get my feet in them and can only wear for about a half hour or so and then I need to take them off. So disappointed; I have worn these for years. Not sure what to do now; afraid if I go up to an 11 they'll be too big especially if they stretch.

Ked's Champion-Canvas Slip-On-
This shoe is good for a slow strolling and sitting. It is not comfortable for a fast paced walk. I recently wore it while walking in St. Thomas, and my feet were not happy at the end of my walk.

Not as Comfortable As Other Keds -
I love Keds and have lots of them. This pair though pinched the back of my heel even though it felt like it was the right size. Also, it pinched at the top by the elastic. I will stick with my Keds that tie up. They are cute looking, but definitely not my favorite Keds.

Wide not wide enough -
Ordered for my mother. Though W is usually wide enough, in this shoe it was like an M and sadly there are no wider options.

If comfort is your only issue -
This shoe was very comfortable, but seemed to run on the wide side. I am not impressed with the looks, but if comfort is your only goal it is a great shoe.

I thought this shoe would have alittle more support to it. It is just a cheap slip on just like you could get in a generic shoe from Walmart. Definitely not worth the $35.00 price. Paying for a name that doesn't stand up anymore.

Just can’t get these to be comfortable. Length is fine but they are too narrow. I usually put Spenco arch supports in all of my shoes so wasnt expecting there to be any arch support.

For whom are they making these shoes?! Narrow-soled dolls?! I have owned Keds for many years and I’m surprised and disappointed. I wear a size 5 in heels and a size 6 in sports sneakers, so I bought the 5 and the 5 1/2 to be on the safe side. I could not even GET my foot into the shoes (felt like Cinderella’s step-sisters!) I gave up and ordered the 6 and the 6 Wide and again with the 6 could not even get my foot in the shoe. The 6 Wide is what finally went on smoothly - but I’m not a size 6! They really are too long in the front and will probably be retuned. I’m guessing a 5 Wide or 5 1/2 Wide would do it; but sadly; those are out of stock. What a bummer.
