Question: is keds better than vans?
Answer: I can't speak to Vans, but I like my Keds. The one downside is that the grip on the soles wears out pretty fast and they end up being quite slippery. It looks like Vans, for the most part, has a slightly thicker sole for better support, and also has a better tread. ... I had a pair of Vans slip ons that lasted for 3 years.
