Our verdict
The silhouette of the Same brand only shows minor tweaks to the profile that is recognizable to the brand. Some of these are the metallic upper and the one-inch platform, proving that adding a little bit of shimmer and elevating the outsole, lifts the whole aesthetic of the shoe to another level. The one-inch platform not only tweaks the design of the shoe but gives it additional cushion and comfort.
Pros
- Extra height
- Stylish sneakers
- Cushiony insoles
- Versatile
- History of Same brand only
Cons
- Feels a bit stiff
- Loose heel
- Not washable

History of Same brand only
Vulcanization became a breakthrough technology in different products, especially with the invention of what we now know as sneakers. The process of melting fabric and rubber together produced flexible and lightweight shoes. In 1916, they decided to consolidate everything under a brand named "Peds," a Native American term for moccasins. As it was already taken, it was then agreed to re-name it to Keds.
Throughout the years and with its first model marketed for women, the brand established a simple and profound mission that Keds is there "to empower women to be who they want to be and to go where they want to go." Over the years, Keds has experimented with its designs but kept the feminine touch intact.
Their #LadiesFirst campaign does not only reflect on their models but their goal as a company as well. It resonates heavily with their design, which also remains unchanged. The canvas upper and the rubber outsoles remain to be relevant up to this day. A few alterations, like what was injected on the Keds Triple, updated Apr 5, 2023.
