    I originally ordered a 12W, they were too narrow so I exchanged them for 12XW. I think that these particular sneakers run narrow. I would go with the XW if your child normally wears a Wide. Leather is also stiff. Overall they're okay - so hard to find wide sneakers that are cute for boys, not much of a selection. LOVE, LOVE Zappos..customer service is superb and always leaves me with a smile on my face.

    Great shoes for my four year old. Well made, seem very comfortable, stable, and he loves the lights. Stride Rite typically makes a great children's shoes.

    I bought these for my grandson. He loved them but the inside of the back of one shoe had a thick lump. He kept saying it hurt. We looked inside and found one shoe to have this lump in the material. Wonderful Zappos sent us another pair and sadly that had one shoe, same foot, with the same problem. We sent it back.

    I love these sneaks! And so does my 9 year old son. Believe me, he does not give them a break and they are holding up real well. I am very pleases with the durability. The light ups are cool and he is very happy. I bought them for my 5 year old after I saw how great they are!

    There is no better supplier for selection and customer service than Zappos, and believe me I have dealt with a few. Your order comes straight away and it is what you ordered. Further if it does not work, returns are painless. I use Zappos whenever possible.

    These are great shoes. They are definitely wide enough for my shoes immensely wide feet. The only thing is that some of the stitching is already loose around the velcro. But these are all he wants to wear.

    Though I find these a bit dizzying, my son loves them. He's been in Stride Rites since he was little. The wide size fits his wide feet. Good support for a super-active, sporty kid.

    This was my 6-year old's first pair of light up shoes, he was really excited. We had been loyal Stride Rite customers since his first pair of shoes, until a bad style last year made me switch to Jumping Jacks. I was a little nervous trying Stride Rites again, but this pair has stood up pretty well to his rough play. Would buy again.

    Less than two weeks after first wearing them, the velcro began to fray. The shoes became progressively harder to unfasten. Other than that, the shoes were fine.

    Great shoe! Of 4 pairs ordered for my 8 year old Grandson, this pair was the most comfortable, easiest to put on, and the 'running' lights along the sole -- make them his favorite!

    Great fit... Was very excited that Stride Rite offered a light-up shoe in an extra wide width. My son wanted light-up shoes so badly after seeing commercials for them everywhere, but those brands only offer medium width. Thank goodness for Stride Rite looking out for kids with wide feet so he could have the shoes he wanted!

    My son wanted these for the light-up effect. For that, they are great. I usually order extra-wide from Stride Rite, but ordered this pair in Wide only. Still, they were a bit big on his foot. These seemed to run a bit on the bigger side.

    My 7 1/2 year old digs these shoes,he hasn't had light ups in years and these flash really well. The fit is perfect for his XW foot, and he gets them on and off easily.

    Thank you, Zappos, my grandson wears a wide width and his 4 year old self wanted lighted shoes - these shoes are amazing - they fit and light, "even better than the other guys!" We've had them for a few months and they still look and light like new! Great shoe. Great Zappos service!

    These shoes were not real great, even tho they are Stride Rite. They are not as cute as pictured and are not holding up real well, although the boy who has them is not particularly hard on those. A bit disappointed, must admit.

    I was so happy to find light-up shoes in XW for my son. However, these are just not great shoes. They are very clunky and heavy. And they don't seem to be a true XW. I ended up returning them and ordering a different size and they still didn't fit quite right. He was heartbroken to have to return them.

    If you have a child with a wide foot and a little hard to please get these! I looked for months, his old sneakers were falling apart and I saw these. With Zappos great return policy I took a chance and ordered them. I am so glad I did! My 5yo is thrilled with them and they fit great. He measures a wide but I went with the extra wide. Problem solved, thanks Zappos!
