Does the Keds Pursuit run true to size?

Many owners say it runs slightly wide and loose, so consider a half size down if you are between sizes. Wide widths are also offered for those who need extra room.

Can I wear these without socks?

Yes. The cotton and textile lining is soft against bare feet, though the canvas upper may rub at first. Most people wear no-show socks for comfort.

How much arch support does it have?

The polyurethane and cork insole is cushioned but fairly flat. It suits casual walking, not long days on your feet or serious arch support needs.

Is the outsole good for wet weather?

No. The thin rubber outsole has shallow tread and reviewers report poor grip on wet pavement. The canvas upper also soaks through in rain.

How do I clean the canvas upper?

Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry away from direct heat. Do not machine wash, which can warp the sole and shrink the canvas.

Is the Pursuit a good alternative to Vans or Toms slip-ons?

It is softer and more padded than a classic Toms, but less structured and durable than a Vans slip-on. Choose it for comfort and easy wear rather than ruggedness.
