Good color choice and comfortable
Lace-up, true to size fit, stylish for everyday wear, breathable fabric
By Kper
The very definition of classic sneaker. The iconic Keds Champion first debuted in 1916 as the first rubber-soled canvas shoe of its kind—loved and worn by a legacy of taste makers and cultural influencers for over 100 years. With its timeless, instantly recognizable design and all-day comfort, this canvas lace-up sneaker is the kind of wardrobe essential that looks great on everyone and goes with everything. Bonus: It comes with two sets of laces—one in a tonal color for a clean, monochrome look and another with a varsity stripe for a fun, sporty twist.

Huge disappointment! Keds has always been my go-to brand for comfortable, affordable & cute looking shoes. Even after the prices increased, I was happy to pay more because my past experiences had always been so positive. Unfortunately, the two pairs of Champion Canvas Lace-Up shoes I purchased were a huge letdown. They are surprisingly uncomfortable and don't provide the comfort I've always associated with Keds. At nearly $60 a pair, I expected much better quality and comfort. Sadly, these shoes were not worth the price, and this experience has made me question whether I'll purchase Keds again.

I remember when Keds sold out a few years ago. I was so disappointed, but I tried the new company which is now still doing business as Keds, apparently. I’m almost 74 and I’ve worn kids since I was about 16 years old goes to tell you what a product they had, but not anymore. The shoes are not true to size. The medium width is more like a narrow the gap at the top when you try to lace them up and they’re made very thin and poorly charging the same prices for something that is so blatantly inferior to the original is a shame. So unless someone wants to step up and take charge of the original and I mean the original Keds , it is so unfortunate but I’m out.

Too thin of material. toe too long. This is so so not right and actually I would call it cheating to still make not better shoes like they used too be. Rubbed my heel off took the pad out and happened to slidee my hand in the shoe and all I felt was paper thin.

This cheap version of Champion sneakers is awful. The removable insole is also awful. They are miserably uncomfortable and I will be looking for an alternative brand of shoes if they put this Bliss Arch insole in all the styles. VERY DISAPPOINTED. I've been wearing Keds for over 50 years!!!

The new removable “blissarch” sole is garbage. It has inexplicable tiny bumps at the top of the sole and rough edges that make it uncomfortable to wear, particularly with bare feet, and when you go to take the shoe off the sole sticks to your foot (ew). It is very obviously a cheaper alternative to the traditional cloth sole and a way to improve profit margins. I would be very surprised if even one single consumer views this as an improvement or even a neutral change to the original Champions design. In short, buyer beware, these aren’t the same keds we’ve lived our whole lives in. :(

To start with, I'm a huge keds fan, and have been wearing champions for so many years. I just got in the forest green champions and gave them a first try-on. I'll say im definitely not really a fan of the new inserts, they feel way cheaper than previous versions. They feel a lot more stiff than before, and the fit is smaller. I've never had a bad experience with wearing champs, but this is as close to the line as it's ever been. I also might just be crazy and seeing things, but im pretty sure the right shoe is narrower than the left. I bought the wide size, and it does not feel the same width in both.

I bought these a couple of years ago and I ordered a 11 wide and they were not wide when we measured them compared to my wife’s I have from before they were not even close in the width. We called to find out the company does not make wides unless they have enough to bother to make them. I have not bought keds for years because of this. I want to try again because I love my keds when they fit. I have so many colors to match different outfits. I have a handicap and can not walk unless I wear keds because they are flat and non skid. I wear them with my dresses to church all the time.

I bought these in green and they are really cute, but they feel terrible! They are too narrow for me and I have a narrow foot. The stitching hits right on a sensitive part of my foot so they are extremely painful to walk in. They have no support at all....unfortunately. They are being returned.

I bought two pair. Bad decision. No padding in footbed. Not comfortable at all.

The “mauve” shoe is definitely baby pink. The wide also runs 1/2 size large. It’s ridiculous that returns cost $7.95 when the item is not as pictured. Very disappointed and would not recommend purchasing from Keds.

Ive been wearing all sorts of different champions for years, all the different colors and patterns. This set of colors really pops a lot of good color into what your wearing. I bought the light blue pair, but I'm probably going to end up getting a couple more of the others as well. They also fit really nicely, I get some rubbing on my pinky toes from some other shoes, but these aren't doing that.

Why do you feel you have to mess with a classic? The new insole is not good.It ruins the comfort of the championwe all know and love no need to change we've been through these changes over the years.They never work.Stop messing with the classic.Leave the champion alone

I really like the new Keds, particularly the removable insole. No more stinky shoes! I normally wear a medium width but had to get wide in this color as medium was out. Still fits great, but I slightly prefer the mediums still. This is a great color, more cool grey than blue though.
