Overall:

The 5 year old girl wore this shoe twice and what would be scuffs on a regular leather shoe turned out to be the top layer of "leather" sheared off like Onion skin. Paste type shoe polish did nothing to help. It's as if the top surface of the shoe was painted on. I've purchased all of this girl's shoes since birth and this is the first time I've been unhappy with a shoe.

Overall:

As usual, these arrived perfectly. We're in Germany & Zappos gets stuff here within about 4 days. Anyway, these shoes are really nice. But the back end is a little hard. If your child has pudgy duck feet (like mine), it's a little bit hard to pull on. After a couple wears, however, they do fit nicely. I recommend maybe putting shoe trees in them. Also, you need to spray these with the waterproofing solution. Otherwise every little stain shows up. They look really cute on my daughter; she put pink laces in them & they look really nice. Great product!

Loved these shoes and the sole is just enough to be worn dressy or with his casual wear. Looks great on.

Overall:

I bought these for my 4 and 6 year old boys to wear to church. They look like Daddy\'s shoes, so they love them. The wides fit great on my wide-footed little guys. They love to jump around and tap in them (though the crepe soles are not loud)! They are very happy with these shoes. We tried Jumping Jacks bucks before, but the very thick part around the opening was really uncomfortable for them. These were also much easier for the kids to put on themselves (since the Jumping Jacks opening was so thick and restrictive).

My children attend private school, and I have been buying this brand of "uniform" shoe for four years. They look great, they're comfortable, and they wear well!

Overall:

These shoes are absolutely adorable. I love the way they look. The only problem is they are very stiff and very hard to get onto my 2 year old’s feet. He actually cries when I’m jamming his foot into them. I’m hoping he breaks them in soon and stops complaining about them.

Overall:

These are fantastic school shoes! This is my 4th purchase of the Prodigy shoes for my daughter, which she wears to private school. I only had to purchase 4 pairs because she outgrows them before outwearing them. Attractive, durable, and she thinks they\'re very comfortable. True to size, too. Highly recommend.

Perfect for pre-school, just a "plain Jane" shoe. I don't like all the fru-fru stuff on them like flowers and bows. I like these shoes because it's a nice plain leather shoe.

Sorry to say, but these shoes looked scuffed from day 2, and badly scuffed from day 3. My daughter has stopped wearing them.

My daughter likes these shoes for their fit, their comfort and their style. I bought them a half size bigger hoping to get through the school year. Their little feet grow so fast!

Great looking and a quality shoe my daughter finds them very comfortable. We purchased the wide width, which is hard to find, because of her wide feet. Zappos shipped them next day at no charge! Thank you very much Zappos!

Overall:

My grandson was the ring bearer at his aunt and uncle's wedding. The shoes given to him by the tuxedo wearhouse were much too small for his feet. I ordered these shoes through Zappos and received them the very next day. They fit perfectly! They are great quality and seem very comfortable for an active little boy!

Overall:

This shoe runs true to size, with a little width to make it comfortable. This is the 2nd year I've purchased this shoe for my son who wears them for school. They last, with the exception of the shoelaces that seem to wear out, due to not staying tied. Other than that, it's a good buy.

Overall:

Nice looking shoe. My son needed shoes for his school uniform. After running around in flip-flops all summer, putting on a full shoe was going to be a challenge. This shoe has a real flexible rubber sole and a soft nubuck upper that did not require much breaking in. They are roomy (wide) with a nice rounded toe.

Reviewer: Christine F. from 'Burbs of Atlanta

Overall:

Purchased these shoes for my son for school, though he only wears them one day a week, when they wear the more formal uniform. The white part seems to resist scuffing, they look great. No complaints about comfort and the size was true. I measured his foot and ordered based on the measurements. I expect them to hold up well enough for his younger brother to wear!

Zappos is the absolute best place to find shoes. The selection is phenominal and they are easy to work with. I bought these saddle shoes for my 4 year old. They fit true to size and he wears them without complaint.

Overall:

I don't like this choice for a school shoe. They are hard to clean &/or keep clean, especially for a overly active 6 year old! But the comfort for her is great and I was glad to find this style in a velcro, because laces and my daughter do not go hand-in-hand. If this is the recommended shoe for your child for school, then I say these are nice. But just to have for casual wear, I say think really hard!

Overall:

I bought these as church shoes for my 7-year old son. I wanted an all-around shoe that he could wear to church and other places as well. He loves them, and I do too. He wore them with his chinos. He looked so handsome. The shoes are really nice. I bought a wide shoe since my son\\\'s feet are wide. They are very light, comfortable, and true to size. The shoes are also reasonably priced. I will probably buy these again when we need another pair of casual shoes. And as always, I was happy with my buying experience at Zappos. I especially like that the shipping was upgraded, and I received the shoes the following day.

Saddle shoe - This shoe is way to bulky for my daughter's feet. Stamped inside the shoe is boy so maybe that is why. When ordering there was no mention of gender.

My son says these shoes are very comfortable. They are also good quality and much cheaper than dress shoes in department stores. Shipping is very fast! I would definitely recommend.

Overall:

PERFECT SHOE for my active 6 year old. And even more perfect in that it\'s navy because he has to have navy shoes for his school uniform requirements. I purposely ordered them a half size bigger because he\'s in that "in between" stage in sizes. Hopefully, they will last the entire school year!

I needed a pair of shoes for my son to wear to a school event and wedding. I ordered on Tuesday - had them on Thursday (event was Friday!) Perfect fit for his wide feet and the best part is my son loves them!
