These shoes are great! My 4 year old has fat feet and these shoes are easy for him to get off and on alone. They withstand a lot of abuse. I have another pair for my 2 year old and they are great too! I highly recommend them.

Love these shoes. My son's feet are very wide, and the extra wide works perfectly. These are the only shoes that are comfortable to him, and we have tried everything. No more fights to put on shoes.

Great shoes -- sturdy and fit my son's XW feet very well (and they are cute)!

These (as well as all other new balance) kids shoes fit perfectly on my very wide-footed almost-two-year-old. they are comfy, he can almost put them on himself, and they are very easy getting on. Truly wide, unlike others.

These are my 2-year-old son's play shoes and he loves them. He wears them indoors and out. They're comfortable and durable. The color is great, it's neutral and goes with everything, plus it's just a cool color. One minor complaint -- the velcro should start a bit closer to the middle of the shoe. It's right over on the side and so you have to really stretch the strap all the way over, and it sometimes comes loose. Not a big deal. Great shoe.

These are totally cute, great shoes. Fit my 2 1/2 year old perfect. And it doesn't get easier than a hook and loop style.

My son has verrryy wide, fat feet, and these fit him perfectly. I ordered a size too big at first, Zappos service is AMAZING. I will not shop anywhere else for my sons shoes. I ordered for an exchange on Tuesday morning and the replacement shoes were on my doorstep Wednesday! Thank you for a great product and wonderful service.

Among few, if not only sneaker I've found with the width to accommodate my 2 year old son's wide feet. Color goes with almost everything in his wardrobe. Velcro patches could be a touch longer/wider to accommodate extra wide feet or thick socks.

My toddler really loves these shoes. It is very hard to find wide shoes to accommodate his feet but I know his feet are comfortable in these. Overall, I am satisfied with this purchase.

Great sneakers. We are in our second pair. I bought the same ones different color when my son outgrew the last pair. Fit well, easy on and off, and keep clean.

My 4 yr old son has a very thick/wide foot and these are the only brand of shoe so far that fit him really well. Even the stride rite shoes he says hurt his feet. Just ordered his third pair of these. He loves the fit and the colors theycome in and I love how they wash.

These shoes are adorable and my 3 year old son has no problems putting them on and taking them off by himself. They do tend to run small, so order a size up.

This is my son's 4th pair of these shoes. They are perfect and fit great. Each time, we just try different colors. We are really happy with the durability of these shoes.

This is my son's second pair of these shoes. They are comfortable, easy to get on and off, and super durable. His first pair was extra wide, but they seemed too wide so this time we ordered a wide and they are a little snug. But at least he can't kick them off so easily. Overall, a great sneaker.

Absolutely love these shoes! They fit perfect and my 3 year old approves - he has named them his superhero shoes - much better flexibility than the Vans and Converse he was wearing and perfect for the playground. About to place an order to another pair.

Love these! My son wore them just about every day for a year or so before they got too tight and then I bought another pair in the next size right away. They are great for every activity and they are just about the only shoe he needs for school. Very durable and easy enough to clean. He has been wearing them since he was 3 (he's 4 now) and they are easy enough for him to get on himself.

My child has really thick feet and can't fit into lace up shoes. The hook and loop really helps get his foot into these shoes. Recommend to anyone who has children with thick of fat feet, plus they are stylish.

Great little shoes! My toddler can put them on himself, though 50% of the time he gets the feet wrong (not the shoes' fault!) Also, they dry overnight after an afternoon of puddle jumping.

Sturdy and built to handle my very busy and on the go toddler. The color is versatile - matched every outfit. My son wore these every day until he didn't fit them and they still look pretty decent after all he does. I plan on buying the next size up.
