I'm in love with these shoes. Must have them.

Brown and white were actually more common than black and white up until the late fifties -- but either were worn with any kind of print. The socks would be the place to color-coordinate -- either a solid that picks up the color in the print, or something with stripes that echo the colors in the dress.

Really??? I had no idea either. For some reason I keep thinking I have to wear dress pants with my saddle shoes so they have been in the closet for a while. What else did they wear them with?

Wear saddles with the print number. And colorful bobby socks.

FWIW, in all the pics of Mom and her friends with their dresses and saddle shoes, the socks were white.

Keds Sizing?

I am about to purchase my first pair of Keds shoes online, but am really confused by the sizing. I am mostly a UK size 5.5, sometimes a 6, a 7.5 or 8 in US sizes, and a 38.5 or 39 in European sizes.
Do they run true to size, big or small? Should I order up or down?

Hey Drappa! I just got my first pair of Keds a few weeks ago. They run long and narrow. I usually wear a US 8.5 M, I needed an 8 W. I would say, if you have anything other than fairly narrow feet, order a half size down wide width. Love mine - they're so comfy!

I bought a pair of the Keds Retro wedges a couple of years back and they fit true to size. I ordered a pair of classic Keds tennis shoes and had to send them back and get a 1/2-size smaller. I also found that the dye on the tennis shoes tends to fade.

 

[Drappa]

Thanks for the advice ladies! I bought true to size and will see when they arrive.

I'm liking these shoes by Kenneth Cole, 40s looking from the front!

[Miss sofia]

sorry ladies i was referring to the stripy shoes Miss Lolita Haze was admiring and pressed the wrong button. Ignore me - senior moment!

 

[Black Dahlia]

Yep mine too!

What make are they???

No worries, these shoes I posted are Fluevogs. They are called Raquel and come in other colours.

I just got these and they are quite comfy so far:

I saw a very beautiful woman on the bus on Tuesday wearing the Remix Paseo shoes.

Does anyone have them? Are they as comfy as they look?

And if you were the woman on the 243 from Shoreditch Town Hall at about 8.45pm, you are awesome and I want your hair.

^^^^^^^^^^^^
I have 3 pairs of remix wedges & they are very comfy (though I don't have the paseo model). I really like their shoes, I have quite a few pairs & I love all of them.

 

[Puzzicato]

What sort of shape are your feet? I have very wide feet.

 

[lolly_loisides]

My feet are average width - I have these and these in that case I'd order a size up (as the slingbacks have buckles). I also have the boulevard that I love, but they they do run narrow.

Puzzicato I have wide feed and have 3 pairs of the remix wedge and have not problems but I found a pair of heels on ebay for cheaper and bought them in the same size as my wedge shoes and they are way too narrow. I think you would be ok with the wedge pair.

I have two pairs of the pleated toe 40's Wedge and they are my favorite dancing shoes.http://remixvintageshoes.com/pleatedtoesandal.html
The pair that I bought this winter on ebay were the Kates. Way too narrow for wide feet but I have not yet tried to have them stretched. http://remixvintageshoes.com/40shighheels.html
