These are the best toddler shoes. We've bought them multiple times in every color - easy on and off so they can do it themselves.

I bought these sneakers for my 2 and a half year old daughter. She previously had Saucony Kids sneakers, which I loved. But I was looking for something different. These New Balances are great. The fit is true to size, the color is a great neutral, and I love that it only has one velcro strap. She can put them on and take them off easily by herself. It has a sturdy sole and good traction. I would highly recommend.

This is my second pair of these particular shoes. My son loves them and I love that they go with denim, camo, and khaki...and mud! They are true to size and they wear well enough that my younger son could probably wear the hand-me-downs when that time comes.

I have a hard time finding shoes wide enough for my little guy (16 months old) but these are absolutely perfect. He loves them! The velcro is convenient and they're stylish as well.

The New Balance Kids 993 is very nice. The brown/olive color is unique! I love that Zappos offers a variety of color combinations and brands. My grandson said "I like it,"when we tried them on him and he ran around in them. He is 28 months and has never said that about any other pair of sneakers that he has owned. How is that for a review?! I love that New Balance has extra wide width, great for chubby toddler feet! I cannot wait for him to outgrow them so that I can order more. Great customer service Zappos! Next day delivery, thanks !

Very important: easy to put on and hard for the kid to take off. Looks good, resistant to dirt. Highly recommend it.

The shoes are true to size and wonderful for little ones to put on all by themselves! We've now ordered twice from Zappos and love it!

My three year old loves these super fast shoes. He can easily put them on himself. The double Velcro strap that is actually just one strap is a plus. They are so cute, the brown and blue, I am actually thinking of getting them in another color. I wish they had the brown/blue in my youngest son's size!

NB\'s are great shoes. I have been ordering them in a wide for my son since he started walking. I think they are very supportive and comfy. Make sure you order the right size, though- I ordered a little up this time and because of the velcro, they sometimes slip off! Zappos is awesome, the best service around.

We ordered ten pairs of sneakers for my 2.5 year old and these were the winners! Easy on, easy off, very comfy, no blisters, great.

These shoes are perfect for my very active 16 month-old. My son has a wide foot and these shoes fit perfectly. They are so easy to get on and off which makes both of us happy! They\'re so cute and easy for him to walk in. You can\'t go wrong with these shoes!

My two year old has wide feet. It is hard to find good shoes for him. These shoes are the best. I bought two different pair.

So adorable! We get lots of compliments on these sneakers for our daughter (though they'd be cute on a boy too). She seems to like them too, so they must be comfortable.

These are the only shoes that fit my son's "fat feet" This is probably his tenth pair in 20 months and we had been buying only the gray but bought the new olive color. Its a fun change from the normal gray. They hold up well and I know my boy is comfortable! Thanks to new balance and Zappos for carrying wides and extra wides. I don't know what we would do without these shoes! (His feet don't even fit in Crocs and his instep is too high!

These are the fourth pair of New Balance sneakers I have bought for very active 3-year-old. My child runs, jumps, and climbs in these and has no issues. And they are easy to put on and take off without help from me.

Bought these for my 11-month old son. He had no trouble walking with them on his feet from the first moment I put them on. In fact, he clapped his hands and laughed while walking in them! At this point, I think we'll keep buying these shoes as his feet grow.

These shoes are great. They are very adorable and they fit my son's feet well. My son has somewhat fat feet with meat on the top but he seems to be comfortable in these. When I go to put another pair of shoes on him, he grabs for these instead. He is 18 months and fits into a size 6 with just a little room to grow. I love the convenience of the velcro. No more shoelaces until he can tie his own shoes!

Super cute and comfy! I ordered a wide and they are perfect for chubby feet. Also, my son has gotten them dirty several times already and they clean really easily and still look like new!

The New Balance Kids shoes are wonderful. Our son is able to play in them and they are so cute on his little feet! They fit well and don't slip off like other infant shoes!
