"I’m really disappointed with my experience with Kaepa. I returned a brand-new sweater in perfect condition, but they denied my refund claiming it was “used,” which is completely untrue. I take care of my items and would never send something back in worn condition. What made things worse was the back-and-forth communication. Instead of resolving the issue, it felt like I was being dismissed and not taken seriously as a customer. There was no real effort to investigate fairly or make things right. I expected better customer service and accountability. Unfortunately, this experience has made me lose trust in ordering from them again."
Double Lace Classic Swirl K
The one that started it all. The Double Lace Classic was Kaepa's very first shoe and the first of its kind to feature our patented Split Vamp Double Lacing System. Born in 1975 and reintroduced for today, it sets a new standard for performance, customization, and self-expression.
With its distinctive split vamp upper and dual lace design, the Double Lace Classic lets you tailor your fit with the fit. Mix and match lace colors. Create your own combinations. No two pairs have to look the same.
This special release keeps the original spirit intact. The "Swirl K" logo, featured on the original 80s design, remains untouched as part of the storytelling. The silhouette has been lightly updated for comfort while preserving its heritage shape. Premium materials ensure durability and a patina that evolves over time. Whether your day is packed or laid back, this shoe adapts and holds its place in your rotation.

"Better than I remembered! I got my first pair on the early 80's. They were the most popular Tennis shoe at the time at my school in Minnesota. Timeless style!"

"Just like the good Ole days. Price is too high though"
Thank you for bringing back this classic shoes
"I’ve wanted these shoes since I was in high school, but back then I couldn’t afford them. Now, almost 40 years later, I finally have a pair, and it feels amazing. Thank you for bringing them back! Are there any plans to re-release the models with the color triangle inserts? Those were iconic. I’d love to see them return!"
Wonderful!!!
"So happy to find these shoes. They changed my life in 6th grade. That was 1984. I was sort of a nerdy type, and not very popular at my middle school. My parents moved us to a new town because of their jobs and bought my a pair as a way to cheer me up for a new school. The shoes were a huge hit and my popularity soared. It truly improved my life in so many ways and made me the confident, success I am today."
"Perfect nostalgia…reminds me of the first day of 6th grade…that’s when i got my first pair"
Love my new classic Kaepas
