Prokeds Unisex Royal Lo Unisex 7 Navy

I wore these as a young girl in grade school, but somewhere along the way I got a pair of Chuck Taylors and didn't think about the important features of the shoe. This sneaker is extremely comfortable, much more so than a C.T. Converse! This is exceptionally well made and will go the distance with me! My only concern initially was the width seemed to run a bit wide for both mine and my husbands pairs. They are unisex sizing. I normally wear a 9 in women's and ordered a 7. My husband wears a 12 or 13 depending on the quality and he ordered a 13. My length is great but the width is a wee bit too wide, and his 13 is a bit too long, he could have gone with a 12 but in both cases we felt like it was such a small discrepancy in size/width we both have elected to keep our current sneakers rather than return and re order. I've worn mine a few times now and wonder why I didn't get back into Pro Keds sooner. After weighing the pros and cons, the Pro Keds get our vote!

Great flat insole, no more arch 'support' crippling you. Wide enough and true size. Love the real gum rubber sole, great traction. The heel and ball of foot are for weight bearing, the arch is high so the muscles/tendons are protected from injury. Well made, good materials.
