The Sims 4 Keds Kit

Keds are my favorite but I'd like more brands and sneakers for all ages.

Yeah, I'd much before a more encompassing kit rather than something more strict.

What are Keds?

I'm guessing that the OP is thinking the lightweight "tennis shoe" type of sneaker/gym shoe. Keds is a brand known for them (and it's my preferred style of sport shoe... as someone who doesn't do sports.)

While I wouldn't mind a couple more styles of lightweight gym shoe, I don't know that we need a whole kit of them. In my opinion, the largest deficit is formal/semi-formal flats. And I wouldn't say no to some more styles of heels either. Especially business heels in the roughly 2" range.

So maybe not a Keds kit, but a shoe kit wouldn't be amiss.

Shoes for all ages. That is a CAS kit I would definitely buy.

Gosh, I haven't seen that brand in decades! Certainly, haven't seen one of their shoe stores anywhere. Wow.

I have about 6 pairs of Keds. :D Canvas and leather. Have been wearing them many years. I love the simplicity as compared with the bulkiness of some athletic shoes.

I have these in my game with about 50 recolors. They're what my sims wear most often.

Unknown brand :p

Instead talk me about Adidas, Reebok, Puma or Nike.

Never heard of keds but I know those four, lol.

@simgirl1010 thanks for the picture. It helps.

An entire kit dedicated to these shoes, or shoes in general, is not interesting for me personally.

good gawd, can anyone say Product Placement?

I can't believe the Keds fad keeps coming back again and again and...again? I remember it clearly about the same time as the debut of the movie Dirty Dancing, with Jennifer Grey prancing around in her impossibly impractical white jeans (which never had a mark on them so she must never have ever sat down on anything) and equally impossibly perfectly clean white Ked sneakers, because all the girls in junior high seemed to be wearing them, and jeans cut off really close to the knee and rolled to just above the knee, and they all had that same ridiculous-looking permed frizzy shapeless hair.

I think white canvas shoes and white jeans are like white sofas and white carpets: they look good in magazines and movies, but in real life, everyone who falls for it learns their lesson.

The other weird thing about Keds is, they're so narrow and have so little toeroom, and no real padding in the bottom: aren't they very uncomfortable?

I like your suggestion about the need for more practical, low-heel professional shoes for women Sims, @DaWaterRat ! I would cheer on the entire movement if women just decided to say no once and for all, to wearing any uncomfortable shoes ever, but even if they don't do that, they certainly don't go tottering about on very high heels professionally, (or at least, not most professions, and the ones that require that kind of dress code are often forms of employ that exploit the desperate).

So where are the classy low-heeled mules, the clogs, the dress flats, and the other choices I see women in professional settings choosing? There aren't a lot to compete with all the high heels.

Not for me. I find them more comfortable than heavier gym shoes meant for more "serious" sports, because they're not weighing my feet down.

But then, I don't really like wearing shoes at all (it's the hobbit in me). So light shoes feel less like I'm wearing them at all, which is automatically more comfortable for me.

I don't buy the white ones, though, if I can help it. Black, green, or blue are my preferences.
