My son used to wear vans for the first 3.5 years of his life. But we noticed he walked pigeon toed. After a visit to an orthopedic, he was diagnosed with flat feet, an as result, it was affecting his gait- hence the pigeon toed. He recommended New Balance sneakers, as well as gait plates to correct his walk. These were the first pair I ordered and I am truly happy. The design is really nice- sleek, modern and goes with any type of bottoms. I especially like that the actual inserts are removable and I can stick his plates in there without a problem. He says they are extremely comfortable, even with the plates and the plates themselves are hard plastic. I try to buy them in every color. These do run a little small, so maybe buy a half size up. However, if your kid needs to use inserts, try to buy just the right size to avoid discomfort. These sneakers hold up very well. He wears them everywhere and almost all the time. We have been hiking, to parks and long walks and they still look pretty good. They wash really well too! I don’t think I’m ever going to find something close to this sneaker.

This shoes have been great for my toddler. They are durable and easy for her to get them on by herself. Love the color and how they fit her feet.

My little girl has super wide feet. This is the first pair of shoes that she was willing to wear and walk in without a full blown tantrum. They fit and font hurt her feet.

I didn’t realize how hard it was to find half sizes. i’m glad we found these at size 5.5. They are exactly as pictured. I love the color combination. They fit our daughter comfortably.

Very attractive shoes, seems made well. My 9 year old said they are good but has had more comfortable. However it’s only week one.

My daughter rips through shoes like nobody’s business. I buy shoes every couple months because she is so rough on them, especially tennis shoes. I recently bought myself a pair of New Balance and love them so I thought I would try them for my 5 year old as well. They are super cute but also seem much more structured than other tennis shoes she had in the past. They fit as they should and have held up through playing outside, being a day care, and going in the woods with her dad. I highly recommend these tennis shoes for little kids. I also think they have good support for their little feet.

I buy these shoes for my kids over and over again. The Velcro strap could stand to be longer, but once the shoes conform a bit, they are fine.

My eight-year-old loves to run everywhere and tends to burn through shoes rather quickly. These issues have held up well and he feels they are comfortable and make him really fast. I like that they open wide so he can put them on easily.
Update: The Velcro closure failed on these shoes after 2 months of wear, but is a bummer. The shoe has a rough Velcro, but the strap is a soft fabric-like material. The Velcro will close, but under any pressure from walking or running, it pulls loose. This makes the shoe unwearable, which is unfortunate because my son really liked these shoes.

Came on time, fit perfectly, and rugged enough for a Tasmanian 5yo.
