The last time that I owned a pair of Keds is when they originally came out with the Champion Leather Sneakers! (lol, longer than I care to remember ;))
I was sporting them then, and now sporting them once again, and truly enjoying the fit.
The fit in the arch support has VASTLY improved since my 1st and only pair.
I did not purchase them again after my 1st pair because there was little to no arch support...basically flat in the footbed, and my calves hurt after a day spent wearing them.
After all these years, I decided to give them another try after reading so many reviews relating to the arch support, and I am sooo glad that I did!
The arch support is great, and still feel as good (after more than several long hours of wear), when I take them off as they did when I initially put them on.
For me, these sneakers run perfectly true to size - 7.5 here.
I have narrow feet, and the medium width works very well; as I wear them with the thicker sport footies.
They look really good with a great pair of capri (clam diggers;), ankle length jeans, and skirts.
This is just a great classic style to pair with whatever casual wear that you might choose for your mood of the day.
So, so glad that I made my way back to these great shoes!
And as always, a BIG shout out, and props 'a plenty to Zappos for always being so awesome to do buisness with???

Great basic shoe. I wear a 10 Narrow and this is one of the few shoes I can always buy knowing it will actually fit and be good quality.

I love these. I also have them in canvas and love this classic leather look. They are the PERFECT shoe for people with narrow feet. And especially nice if your size is really big, like mine, (10), because they make your feet look smaller. Not what a white shoe usually does. I love them!

If you have a narrow foot and struggle to find shoes narrow enough, especially if you wear a large size like me, 10, these are for you! And they actually make your feet look smaller! :-) Win Win. Comfort, practical & pretty

MY favorite sneakers! I am typically a 7. I bought the 7 and 7 1/2 and kept the 7 1/2 for a little extra room! I bought the white leather and I wear these shoes with everything!!! Including denim, dresses, shorts, skirts and leggings!!! Love, love, love totally a true classic!

I hope Keds makes this particular style forever! They are my most favorite shoes and I wear mine all the time. I love the thinner sole and the leather. Got the white. My forever shoe.

I wanted this shoe to wear with capris. I have really bad feet and need good arch support so I added half an insert to increase arch and it worked great for me. So now I have a cute tennis shoe instead of a heavy sneaker to wear for dressy causal affairs. By the way, I tried several inserts and the full one made my toes too cramped, so stick with the half if you need more arch support.

Love these shoes so much. I have bunions and the wider size felt so much better. Wore these for 4 days in Las Vegas, no problems at all.

These were purchased to fit an elementary school dress code. They are very comfy and look great with a school uniform. Bonus: no shoe changing for p.e!

FINALLY, Keds that fit XW width. The leather version fits FAR better than the canvas version.

Have loved keds since the sixties when I wore them to school. Wore white leather keds in the eighties. I usually wear 6M in most shoes, but in keds a 5 1/2 W. The white leather are great as well, except the left shoe of this pair was about 1/4" shorter than the right, and it really obvious. Returned and will re-order in a few weeks in the hopes that the replacement pair will have shoes of equal length.

I ordered multiple pair to try my inserts in them. The pair that fit best were true to size with the insert in so I didn't need to order the larger or wider ones. The material on the one I kept is slightly puckered compared to the smoother leather on the others.
For inserts: the provided insert is a good thickness with slight arch but is glued in. I use a purchased arch support insert so was able to cut the toe area down and fit it into the shoe on top of the provided insert and it was comfortable. Since the sides of the shoe are high my added insert reduced the rubbing on the ankle. Since my insert is wide and not a slim fit it does widen the heal of the shoe and cause my heal to slip slightly. I have to keep the laces tight to prevent this.
Overall, my modifications to my own insert in a shoe size I usually wear made this shoe comfortable for me. It is a good choice for a basic slim fit walking shoe that will go with just about anything.

These are comfortable. I ordered wide width, and they fit nicely. Usually I order a size up for my shoes due to my wide width; however, that is unnecessary with these shoes.

The shoes are great. Have to get used to them. They are narrow width, and I never have worn a narrow width, but should have all along.

I love the look and the arch, which is new for Keds. The shoe is longer in the toe as part of the style, and it is wider across the back/ heel so I need to send back. I feel they are the right size but the shape of my foot includes a narrow heel.

The Keds were a gift for my Mother. When I mentioned my Mother is 93, it sounded as if the Zappo-ist was miffed that there was no same day delivery...but next day was perfectly fast enough. Plus, my Mother loves them.

I need extra wide shoes and Zappos has a super great selection. I am on my seventh pair of white leather Keds, new ones for wearing out, and the older ones for around house, oldest for the garden-they wash beautifully! I love them and love Zappos!

If you like flat shoes for walking, these are the greatest. I have about 8 pairs of different kinds of Keds.

I cannot recall the last time I was in a brick and mortar mortar shoe store. Ever since I discovered Zappos, they is no need to shoe shop anywhere else. They have every possible shoe brand in all the right styles and sizes and finding what we are looking for is simple,yet thorough. The shoe descriptions are detailed and clear. Shipping both ways makes returns guilt free and convenient with their smart label system. Prices are better than competitive and the service staff is extremely helpful.

I bought these shoes in order to have white leather shoes while attending nursing school. They were more comfortable and were easier to keep clean than the "nursing" shoes that I was provided with by the school. I first ordered a smaller size and returned the shoes and got my order for the new size very quickly. Zappos service and web site interface is very good.

The shoe was not narrow enough for me, but that wasn't the shoe's fault. They just do not come narrow enough for me, so I have to make do with the narrowest size they come in and buy thick socks! I have bought lots of shoes from this company and always received the best service.
