i've been wearing Keds for decades and the brand still continues to combine function, fit and style...they feel great and no they do not have the support that  an adidas running shoe might have, but they don't look like that either...these sneakers look just as good with a denim skirt  as they do with a pair of shorts.  this particular print is very nice and matches a lot of pieces in my wardrobe.  i have received several compliments on these sneakers and have referred everyone to amazon to purchase them.
