PRO-KEDS

In 1949, Keds introduced a line of athletic shoes called Pro-Keds, which were intended for more serious use, specifically for basketball. Over the years many basketball players and teams wore Pro-Keds shoes while playing. The first Pro Keds product was the Classic Royal.
Pro-Keds has become synonymous with some of the biggest names in basketball history and professional sports, and attained cult status as the first real sneaker with style among New York City's hip-hop community. Some of basketball's biggest names wore Pro-Keds on and off the court, including Nate Archibald,[1] Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Pete Maravich.[2]
Pro-Keds has re-issued the classic Royal Canvas, the Court King and the historic Royal Master basketball shoe.

      I prefer red Chucks with my new "Cut". I used to wear dreads, but had to shave them off for a job interview next week. I think I WILL get the job. I will wear my Black Chucks, black jeans, etc, for the job. Thanks for the Comments
