Sizing is accurate and another Keds sturdiness!

These run very narrow. When I called Keds to inquire, they said all the Keds that day Champion run much more narrow than other Keds. They are narrow in the toe box and a little in length.

"¦this is for my daughter's elementary school cheer team, she just needed to tighten the laces a bit and she was fine despite it being a little wide and somewhat larger than expected. She loves it.

Below defines my opinionated star ratings:

One (1) star = the product grossly under delivers to the point the it was a waste of time/energy and/or this was the lowest rating allowed.

Two (2) stars = the product poorly represented what is was designed for even though it works (i.e. quality, stability, below par when comparing to competition). (and the manufacturer should go back to the drawing board).

Three (3) stars = the product worked (in the middle), but never met my standards overall, but the functionality was simply okay.

Four (4) stars = the product is good and will satisfy most that use it, regardless if there is that one nagging thing prevented it from being the best

Five (5) stars = the product is the all-star/gold medal/excellent category and ether surprised me that it worked so well or it did exactly what was promised by the manufacturer.

Biggest hack to save $20 or more - wear a women's size 7 but can fit into a big kids size 6 (sometimes 5)
Got these keds that are perfect for me by buying kids size 6. All leather. Saved $20 bucks over the adult size. Its ok with me....

i bought the navy/white version of these shoes, and i like them. i usually wear shoes that are between 4 and 5, so i decided to get the 5M because it was closest. surprisingly, when i tried them on, they felt extremely large... i think there's a whole inch left of space, buut they are extremely comfortable in my opinion :) i've never had Keds, so i was surprised to find that the opening is much lower than i was expecting. it will take some time to get used to, but it's actually quite nice to have a lower cut shoe. i think the only problem i have with these shoes is that they are too large, but that's a problem that can be easily fixed the next time i decide to buy Keds ;)
one other thing: the box did have a dent in it when i received it, but the shoes were fine.
