In early February we caught wind of a Spring 2011 PRO-Keds collection that included the 96er low. Today’s PRO-Keds news revolves around the former hip-hop artist by the name of Marcel Hall, better known as Biz Markie. He has teamed up with PRO-Keds on two leather pairs of the 69er low. Biz Markie logo branding can be seen on the tongue, and each pair is set to come in a limited edition pull-out drawer shoe box and with a USB flash drive also inspired by the artist. Participating retailers will begin to release this pack as early as tomorrow.

Keds is currently on the road stopping in nine-cities on a cross country
mobile tour to promote their “How Do You Do” campaign. Keds has created
a city inspired shoe for each stop along the way, that will be sold
exclusively at Keds with a portion of
the proceeds being donated to a local charity from each city.

The shoes will be on display within the travelling, canvas-wrapped shoe
box, alongside a gallery of Keds sneakers and projections of
documentaries showcasing the city’s local talents.

Keds has also collaborated with tastemakers from around the country to
create three special webisodes to promote this campaign through music,
style and art. – Via Keds
