A well-placed tipster emailed this weekend to tell us that Keds will be collaborating with the Gap this upcoming summer. The shoes, designed by Patrick Robinson, will come in washed-out denims and pastels. Prices haven't been settled yet, but the shoes should debut at a pop-up shop, presumably the one next to the Gap flagship on 54th Street. Keds has previously teamed up with everyone from Nanette Lepore to Opening Ceremony—just this morning we heard about Alice & Olivia's party Keds—but this may be the first time they've ever worked with a company that's equally big and clean-cut. Even thinking about it makes us feel wholesome.
