We present you a video on the upcoming collaboration between Opening Ceremony and Keds/Pro Keds. The video was produced and directed by Monihan Monihan and is narrated by Humberto Leon of Opening Ceremony. Enjoy!

Designer Richard Chai got together with Keds to design a collection of sneakers. “Chai will offer a variety of high- and low-top styles from Madras canvas to charcoal gray leather, with edgy details such as zippers in lieu of laces. Prices for the shoes, which will hit stores in January, have yet to be determined.” Via WWD.

It looks like the Richard Chai x Keds Footwear Collection will hit stores for Spring/Summer 2010.

Classic footwear label Keds is the latest brand to receive the Opening Ceremony treatment. Staying true to their “penchant for internationalism, each Keds collection will look to a single country for inspiration. First on the roster: The United States. The premier collection of unisex Keds and Pro-Keds incorporates emblems of classic Americana, like bandanna prints, denim, chambray, and bright primary colors with nautical striped laces.” The first collection will be available on September 10th in correlation with Opening Ceremony’s FASHION’S NIGHT OUT festivities. Stay tuned for more from this exciting partnership.

Keds got together with Loomstate to produce their first ever eco-friendly footwear. Rogan Gregory and Scott Hahn designed a collection of sneakers for Keds, that will be distributed exclusively at Barneys New York.

“The shoes are eco-friendly with organic uppers and linings, nickel-free eyelets, recycled insole board and shoe boxes and no tissue paper in the packaging. Also, a percentage of sales go to the Organic Exchange.” Via LA Times.

Prices at 75 USD, the Keds by Loomstate footwear will hit Barneys this coming Monday.

Japanese workwear inspired brand Good Ol’ got together with Keds on a sneaker. In true workwear spirit, the sneaker features a canvas black upper, contrasting white stitching and premium brown leather lining. All in all a very solid and subtle sneaker, that will not let you down. Via Unbar.

An interesting collaboration takes place this Spring/Summer 2009 season between Ked’s and Jeffrey. The sneaker brand and high end retailer kept it really simple and present three canvas sneakers with clean white soles and collaborative logo on the inner sole. Via Interview.

Japanese store Beams collaborated with Keds on the Booster. The outcome is a well priced casual shoe, coming in navy and beige canvas. The gum sole also works well on both colorways. It is now available at Beams.

A nice new model is coming from Keds – the Booter Saddle Shoes. It comes in black and brown, in a mix of leather and suede with some nice elements from classic dress shoes on the leather parts. A nice casual shoe for everyday use.

The Keds Booter Saddle Shoes are now available at Ships.

Today we came across a nice series of Keds Champion OX sneakers, made for Japanese retailer Beams. Just like the previous Beams x Vans Era collaboration, the retailer chose to give this classic a patent leather make-over. The Champion OX comes in red, blue and white, all with a complete patent leather upper, giving them an overall clean and dressed up appearance.
Detailed images of all three colorways follow after the jump.

We present you the Keds Hell Sand. The classic shoe brand presents their own version of the Chukka and does it all right. Keep the silhouette simple, gave a bit more sleek look overall and present it in a nice sand and classic black colorway. All in all a simple and easy to wear lifestyle shoe.
