The recycled aspect is what I like best about these Keds.
I love how they stay true to the original Keds line which I’ve been wearing for years. I also love that the shoe laces are made of recycled water bottles.
I love the fact that they are using recycled materials for their outersole. I firmly believe that if more corporations took this type of initiative, it would do alot to improve the environment.
I like that Keds has kept the style I love while using green materials for the construction. I like that they kept with what works rather than trying to invent a new style to advertise their new direction.
