Good gawwd! Keds? Really? You know how bad they made your feet smell back then? I guess I hated them because mom always got them two sizes too big so I could grow into them. Problem with that was they always wore out when I had only grown one size. Were they OK to wear if they fit? I bet I had five pairs and never knew. |

Yea Brumbs, they have always existed as far as I recall, not hard to get either! I never wore them because I never found any that fit, but I got friends that do. |

I had a pair of Converse that were high tops. Bright yellow and you could pull the high top over to make a low top. The inside of the high top was a bright blue. Awesome... |

Now you can only wear BK if you're a rapper. And they only come in white I miss the old Pumas with the 2 velcro straps. Why don't they use velcro on shoes anymore? I loved that. ~SM |
