NEW YORK Keds has signed a deal with actress Mischa Barton for upcoming marketing efforts. As part of this agreement, Barton will appear in national print and outdoor advertising campaigns, direct mail, point of purchase and online efforts, and also will make personal appearances on behalf of the Keds brand. Financial details were not released.

The move is part of the footwear company’s strategy to appeal to hip teens and young men and women. In July, the company signed a deal with Rocawear clothing and Roc-a-fella records, for the distribution of men’s, women’s and children’s footwear under the Pro Keds brand.
