This falls in line with what Keds Japan's vintage line I posted last year. They look like they were modeled after these late 60s Keds which had a tapered toe instead the pointed toe from the early and mid 60s.

Part of me is so excited that Keds is acknowledging the historical shape of their shoes — I wasn't alive in the 1960s so I have no attachment to this silhouette... My favorite Keds year was 1992 or so, at the end of the yellow insole era and the beginning of the "They Feel Good" insole era...

1) Rounder toe, and had a support material inside the toe that kept it from getting flat
2) Pebble sole
3) Roundy font on the Keds label
4) Painted eyelets

I grew up with this particular shape and its very exciting. Some of these were around when I was a kid as well.
