Baseball Keds

Baseball keds are shoes that sport the identifying logo of a baseball team. The sneakers are a great way to support your favorite baseball team and show your love for the game. These sneakers are also great to wear for daily activities such as going to school or running errands. The baseball keds are made of canvas and have rubber soles. They are available in a variety of colors and designs. Some of the baseball keds have a baseball shaped shoe tongue and a lace-up front with a flat bottom. They are easy to put on and take off. The padded insoles of the keds help to prevent odor and have an antimicrobial fabric that helps to keep your feet fresh. The vulcanized rubber outsole provides good traction.

The company that makes the keds is called Keds and was founded in 1916 by U.S. Rubber Company. It was the first mass-produced canvas-top sneaker with a rubber sole. Later, the brand branched out into Pro Keds to manufacture shoes designed for more serious form and to be worn by basketball players. This led to the Royal, which made its mark on the hardwood. It was the shoes of choice for players like George Mikan, who shattered the stereotype of the game as a sport for nimble, bald men named Norm and Chet. The 6ft 10in Mikan was the forerunner to power centers like Shaq and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

Although Pro Keds went dormant in America during the 1980s, they did a re-launch in Japan and the Court King tennis shoes, with their toe caps dipped in vivid colors, caused a sensation. Keds has recently come back in style with collaborations with stylish contemporary artists and athletes. They have released sneakers themed after pioneering video games, such as Centipede, Pac Man, and Asteroids.
