When the newly launched Opening Ceremony and Keds Animal Print Collection was first launched I had a few trepidations. First, isn’t animal print over done? And why would Keds get involved in something so potentially tacky?
The answer is that these are far from tacky, and no, animal print is never out of date. It is just the haters who are out of date. Anyway, the Opening Ceremony and Keds Animal Print Collection features the typical low rise that Keds is known for. As well, the pony hair leopard or zebra prints have some sweet vintage touches that make them covet worthy.
