Progress comes in so many forms. It doesn’t look the same for any two people, and it certainly isn’t linear. Progress is about taking lessons from our past and moving forward. In fact, looking back at our history is what inspired us to (re)create this handbook.
The Keds Hand-book for Women is a modernization of The Keds Hand-book for Girls series published in the early 1910s-20s. But instead of offering up advice on how to fish or play basketball, we’re giving women the chance to tell their own stories in their own words to show the world that there is no “one” or “right” way to be. It’s not just a handbook—it’s a movement and a platform to encourage women to be their true selves, whatever that means to them. Something Keds has stood for over 100 years.
