I walk 4-5 miles a day with my dogs and these have turned out the be the best walking shoes I have ever had.  All the more expensive shoes tilt your legs and feet funny.  With these Keds I feel balanced.  Also other shoes often have a lot of padding in the heel but almost none in the ball of the foot and you can feel the pavement.  These Keds are better padded in the ball on the foot.  They are roomier in the toe area than many other shoes as well which is very helpful since your foot spreads as you walk.  I have never had a single rubbed place with this Keds style.  And they last a long time.  This is my second pair.  Even with all the miles I walk, my first pair lasted over a year and I still could use them but decided to get a new pair in a little better shape.  Great shoes.  I hope Keds keeps making this style in just the same way.  When you have a winner, stick with it.  I plan to as long as they do not change anything about this shoe.
