I think they do...I always think they are cute and my feel always look terrible in them...I do however have some coach tennis shoes more like the katie sneakers...and they are adorable on.
Thats whats funny about them though..I wore converse lowtops all through high school and college...and I always thought they made my feet look smaller than they are...but these shoes...which I agree remind me of them..make my feet look huge!
