These have worked out well for my six year old son. They wash well. He finds them comfortable and the all important "fast". They are super flexible. I think he could eventually wear down the bottom treads, but made any different, I don't think the shoe would be so flexible. Of course, he could just use the brakes on his bike instead of his shoes and it wouldn't be an issue.

Both my son and I love these sneakers. They look great, wear well, and they are light and comfortable. The velcro strap makes it easy for my seven year old to get them on and off himself. The best part: they are washable, so I can keep them looking reasonably respectable even during baseball season! Careful, though, these shoes run very wide. My son wears a wide and these are roomy even for him.

A very light but sturdy shoe for active youngsters. Best review from the boy "I can run faster and jump higher!" Excellent advice for sizing down. No problem with shipping.

We LOVE these shoes! They are super lightweight, washable, quick drying, easy to put on by kids, and so colorful (particularly for a kid who adores orange). They do run big, so we\'ve bought them about a size smaller than we would other shoes. I\'ve bought two pairs of these for my son and another pair for my daughter in pink/white. These are the only shoes they want to wear.

These are the best shoes ever! I lost track how many pairs we bought (at least 4 or 5), but as soon as my son outgrew them, we bought another pair same red color in a bigger size. They are lightweight, bendable, and so comfortable. Easy on and off. My son has a wide instep and it has been hard to find shoes that fit, until we found these. They are the best! Very stylish, too.

Lightweight, cool, balanced, supportive - Great shoe for kids, easy to put on, supportive but very lightweight. Kids wore them everyday to camp this summer, still in decent shape. Seems to be good for lots of different feet – one son has wide feet, one narrower, both love these shoes.

Great shoes. Very easy on and off and they go right in the washing machine. These are not for a child with a narrow foot though--they would be a little too wide.

These sneakers are the best! They are cut a little on the wide side which is perfect for both of my children. They are machine washable and come out looking like new. They are light as a feather which my son swears helps him run faster than a cheetah! I have been buying these sneakers for a couple of seasons now locally, what is so great about Zappos is they carry so many more colors and styles than my local shoe stores, or Nordstrom for that matter. The kids enjoy picking out their favorite color and style by looking at the pictures and anxiously await their arrival at our home each day. Cannot say enough about these fantastic sneakers and the great service from Zappos!

My son loves these sneakers. They are his second pair, exact same style. Very lightweight and machine washable.

My 11 year old son loves his new shoes! He has wide feet and these fit him perfectly. They are very light and he loves running in them and the color/design. We would buy them again. Zappos is great, wonderful customer service and fast shipment!

My 6 year old son loves these shoes! The bright blue looks really cool. Very very easy to put on (one Velcro strip). Also they are very light weight. Good for hot fl weather. He has gotten a lot of compliments.

My boys love wearing these shoes. They are lightweight, flexible and durable enough to stand up to youth boys activities. We have passed on used ones to friends, and sold them on Tsukihoshi - we only wish they would make them for adults, too!

For the kid, they're stylish, comfortably light-weight, and there are no laces to trip over. For the mom, they're washable and long-lasting. I thought the silver/black color would get dirty, or be too bright, but it has a nice look to it. There aren't a lot of options for Velcro in bigger sizes. These hold up better than the Saucony Cohesion, and they're lighter than the Stride Rite styles. We tried the Tsukihoshi Speed, but my son, whose feet are extra wide, prefers the Tora model. I hesitated to write a review, because I was worried these would sell out at Zappos. But I'll just have to hope that Tsukihoshi will increase production! These are great shoes!

My son loved these shoes and so do I. I bought them on the fact that you could throw them in the wash. I had to put that to the test when my son decided to jump in a mud puddle. They came out clean and smelled fresh. These shoes have held up better than other brands I have bought. I would buy again.

We love these shoes! Lightweight and easy to put on, they are a win-win in our home. We have bought this brand in the past. It is one of the few brands that can stand the everyday wear and tear of my 7 year old. They run large, though, and it took a few orders to get the right fit.

My son loves these shoes, so much so that I bought 2 pairs. He has a wide foot, and Tsukihoshi is a perfect fit. We\\\'ve owned this brand before and they wash beautifully, which is great for active kids.

My son loves these shoes and so do I! They are light so, according to my son whose 7, they make him the fastest in the playground. I like them because I can throw them in the wash after he\'d trudged through puddles and mud during hikes. Ever since I\'ve discovered Tsukihoshi, I don\'t think I\'ve bought any other brand of shoes because of the washability. Only thing I wish is that they would make shoes with actual laces to tie. It took us a while to learn how to tie laces because he didn\'t have the practice.

Great sneakers! Light as air; pretty cool styling and they don’t look like clunky velcro shoes that my kids hate. These are great for camp--the boys won’t be tripping over laces that have come undone. They seem to fit true to size. So glad I found them; haven’t seen them anywhere else other than Zappos.

My son loves this brand because the shoes are very, very light weight. These fit just right and he says they are just as "cool" as they look.

My son loves these sneakers. They are very light weight and comfortable. In fact, he\'s on his second pair he likes them so much. We order a half size larger than his regular size and that works out well for us.

Love these shoes. Expensive, but worth it. Very flexible, very lightweight, very easy for my 7 and 10 year old boys to put on. They love them and won't wear anything else!

Son loves these shoes -
I ordered these shoes for my 8y.o., but they ended up fitting my 10yo. They run very large. I ordered a 3 for my son who wears a 3-4. My son who wears a 5 ended up wearing them. I even tried them on and they fit me; I wear a size 6 1/2 to 7 in women's shoes. My son loves them and I received a call from a mom from school wanting to know where I got them because her son saw them at school and wanted to get a pair.

Tora in blue and white -
I ordered these for my son in blue/white. Nice light shoe. Doesn't look like little kiddie shoe, looks like a big kid shoe even with Velcro close. My son loves them. He has wide feet and these fit him great, seemed to run a little big.

NICE! (Get them in Orange and Black!)
My nearly 5yo fell in LOVE with these "FAST" shoes as he calls them. I can't get him to wear anything else. The shoe is so light and stylish. DO HEED the warning of selecting a full size downward - I did and my son still has room to grow. Thanks Zappos for introducing us to Tsukihoshi Kids!
