Some kids wore those same "sneakers" during my growing up years, but I remember them being thought of as shoes for "squares" deck shoes maybe? I don't know the brand, but you found them in the stores, especially chandleries, sold in bins, where you dug through looking for the desired size, hoping they were tied together by the laces. I can only remember that they came in navy,red, a light o.d. green, khaki and black... maybe white too. If you watch some of the early Brady Bunch episodes, you'll see the whole family in them...even Alice the housekeeper. After the '72 Olympics is when kids wouldn't be dead wearing those anymore.
