My 7 year daughter loves them and thinks they are comfortable and she is particular! She likes the sparkly straps, too. What I like about these is they don't have any vinyl pieces sewn on top of the shoe too close to where her foot bends near the toes. I've had problems in the past with both my daughter's and son's
Skecher sneakers where they started to come apart wherever the vinyl was stitched on top near those areas. These don't have that design flaw. I'd get these again.
