Keds Women's Champion Original Leather Lace-Up Sneaker

Comment

These are awesome sneakers for a casual sneaker. I have them in white and just bought them in navy. I wear a wide and that does not give me a lot of options without paying a small fortune. When you first get the shoes they might feel a bit tight on a wide foot; however, if you wear them around the house for about 10-15 minutes they stretch and are extremely comfortable. These and flip flops are my go to summer shoes. They do have some arch support but they are not meant to be an orthopedic shoe by any means. They are a super casual throw on sneaker. If I am walking for an extended period of time, like a day trip, I would wear a better supportive shoe. But these are awesome for day to day running around.

Its so hard to find cute comfortable shoes in wide or double wide sizes. I decided to try these in white leather since they come in WW and from the moment I put them on I was in love. Not only do they look fabulous, but they just feel great. I wanted a flat shoe with no drop, no extra cushy support, and preferably no arch support. They do have a little bit of an arch bump, which I could live without, but fortunately it doesnt irritate my feet. I am now using these as my regular walking shoe. These look great with my denim pencil skirts and capri pants. I couldnt be happier. I have already bought three more pairs!

This is my second pair. For Swing Dancing I got it for swing dancing. They wear quickly. The second pair, I got 2.5 months out of them before the soles detaches from the rest of the shoe and not much use. For this price, they didnt last long enough. They have absolutely no support. They have a grip on the bottom, thus arent great for spinning. If its your preference and dont want to slide around, they wont slip on the dance floor. These arent supportive for aerials either but theres also not many choices out there. For Work Within two weeks they looked worn and someone commented that they thought they were old shoes. For standing/walking a lot, theyre no good, not supportive or comfortable. They are tight fitting at first, but stretch out within 2-4 days of use to fit your feet better. I will not be buying thes again for any occasion. Its worth getting more expensive shoes or cheaper keds if theyre not going to last anyway.

I wanted a white leather shoe for vacation. I knew Id been walking a lot and in dusty and possibly wet conditions. First day I wore with socks and they were comfortable. Next day no socks and they were also very comfortable. The next 5 days I walked a minimum of 15,000 steps each day without socks and without blisters. I also wore them for the journey home, all 28 hours of it, without feeling the need to take them off. Actually I had to take them off for airport security half way through the trip and dreaded it in case my no sock feet stank but they did not :-) I would like a pair in black leather for the winter but the thing I dont like is the Keds name stands out too much on them especially the blue and white logo on the heel. Remove this logo and Ill buy. Does anyone know if you can pull it off? Still 5 stars for the white ones for comfort.

These shoes have the basic, clean, classic design in an athletic shoe that I have loved for years. Do I have other athletic shoes? Yes, I have shoes for specific activities: hiking athletic shoes with ankle support, running shoes, etc. These, however, are my go-to shoes to wear when I want a slightly sporty look when I dont want to look like I actually just left the gym. Even so, theyre perfectly wonderful for an afternoon of sight-seeing or light sports activities. The leather is easier to maintain to keep that pristine white look and far more resistant to weather than canvas. You can usually just wipe them down and even use leather cleaner or white shoe polish on them to keep them looking crisp and neat. Theyre also VERY comfortable. While they have moderate arch support, it is solid support. The sole is solid but still flexible. Theyre easy to wear all day in most casual instances.
