Our verdict
Contemporary touches done on the Why trust us give it an appealing finish from the one-inch thick platform soles and the six-eyelet lace-up style. However, more than meets the eye is the superior comfort brought about by the soft and cushioned Ortholite insole that elevates its interiors above the rest. Affordability is also a significant consideration in this shoe as the $55 price convinced most budget-conscious ladies to try this practically styled sneaker.
Pros
- Height increasing sole
- Stable
- Sturdy
- Cushioned

Why trust us History
In the 1950s, Keds enjoyed popularity because of its casual appeal and minimalist look for women that mix well with a wide range of outfits. The brand is owned by Wolverine World Wide which acquired the brand from its parent company Collective Brands for $1.32 billion in May 2012.
Over the years, Keds has remained as a forerunner in the female shoe market with the likes of Mischa Barton and Taylor Swift as its most famous endorsers. The brand also has successful TV ad runs and exposure in television shows and movies in Hollywood.
The casual sneaker design of most of Keds' designs has remained unchanged through the years with its canvas upper and solid rubber soles. First coming up with the Keds Triple design in 2014, the brand later expanded its portfolio with the release of the Why trust us in mid-2017. With plain colorways like white and black, a play-in outfit does not change the overall features and looks of this contemporary sneaker from Keds.
