The next round of Keds for Opening Ceremony sneakers see the resurrection of the Keds Camp Oxford with some added French “je-ne-sais-quoi.” Designed by artist Richard Saja, the oxfords feature recontextualized French toile prints embellished with clever, playful twists on monochromatic pastoral scenes.

Anyone familiar with “Toile de Jouy” — a print that originated in 1700s France — would most likely associate it with the sweet, girly Marie Antoinette-style decor of grandma’s dining room, but Richard’s reinterpretations subvert the expected daintiness by inserting figures reminiscent of the artist’s childhood doodles: superheroes, monsters, clowns, and mutants. The end result recalls something else along the lines of fabric graffiti, or comic strip tapestry.

Richard Saja’s customized Keds for Opening Ceremony “France Edition” sneakers will debut next week at Fashion’s Night Out.

Cool Hunting reports on the first shoe (in a series of 10) from Keds’ new Century Collection. “The “Champion Take Flight” tackles the 1910s with a look that’s equal parts dapper menswear and ladylike detailing. Washed sateen lends an unexpected touch of shine, while a cap toe, other leather details and a striped lining speak to a classic early 20th century feel. We can imagine Amelia Earhart sporting the gum soled-footwear, though Keds cites “America’s coming of age during Industrial Revolution” as its inspiration.” Keds will introduce a new sneaker from the Century Collection each month, so look out for more. The Take Flight is limited to 200 pairs and available is now as a Keds.com exclusive.
