I've had these Keds since 1965, they still survive

These are real Keds, not copies. They replaced a pair of cheap copies I had acquired in college. The ones they replaced were wonderfully broken in, with large sole holes and tattered uppers.

 

I threw out the old ones shortly after buying these and have regretted it ever since. These Keds, in almost 60 years, have never become as well broken in as their predecessors.
