Did you know that the first ever sneakers made for women were developed by Keds in 1916? Pretty iconic and such a female-empowering move, huh? Those shoes are called the Keds Champion Sneakers. And to this day, they’re considered basic fashion staples by women from all walks of life.

Worn by the Golden Hollywood’s top leading ladies Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn back in the day, even by Yoko Ono on her wedding day with Beatles frontman John Lennon in the late 1960s, and then rocked by pop superstar Taylor Swift in the recent years, the Keds Champion has proven its timeless style relevance after many decades since its conception.

Keds is re-introducing the Champion sneakers with an upgraded design in its new limited edition release. And this time, it is in collaboration with the Philippines’ most sought-after actress of this generation: Kathryn Bernardo.“I’ve always been a fan of Keds because the shoes are classic and iconic. They are great ‘everyday’ shoes and are always in fashion,” Kathryn said. The country’s top leading actress also noted that Keds “represents my style which is fashion, with always a little bit of fun.”

The all new #KathxKeds Champion sneakers are dubbed as the “Cherry Blossom”. Reminiscent of a delicate flower that has bloomed into a stunning beauty, the one-time limited edition sneakers simply resonate with Kathryn Bernardo’s effortless charm.

The Cherry Blossom Champion Sneaker is an eye-catching pair with its accents of pink, blush, and floral prints on the lining. The cherry blossom prints can simply add a feminine, minimalist sophistication into your personal style. While the pink Dream Foam footbed of this pair ensures a comfortable stride. For subtle accessorizing, the shoe laces of these sneakers come in two colors: white and pink.  For a casual day, a white button-down polo shirt and a pair of washed denim jeans ensemble is a great choice– and topped with the Cherry Blossom Champion Sneakers, you can go for an effortless, stylish look. If you want to add a soft touch of femininity into this look, opt for the pink laces.

If you are going for a look with a little oomph, the Cherry Blossom Champion with white laces will complete any of your ensembles that are topped off with a black leather moto jacket. With just a little styling, you can easily incorporate the Cherry Blossom sneakers into any edgy, fierce looks, too.     

This cute pair retails at P2,995. The Kath x Keds Champion Cherry Blossom is available now in stores nationwide and major department stores.
