My son wore these as his school uniform shoes in his Pre-K class. That means he wore them just about every day between August and May. They wore wonderfully and he could run and play in them, water resistant, and still looked nice until the last day. And he is not nice to shoes. The only reason I'm buying a new pair is because he grew out of them. These are the best shoes!

I bought these for my son who has a wide foot. They are wonderful. They still look new after a farm boy has played in them! Very durable.

These are really nice looking shoes. The pic makes them look like hiking boots, but they look nice enough to be dress-casual and look great with khakis, cords, and jeans. They fit well and are true to size. They are supposed to fit wide feet, but my son has narrow feet and they still fit well. The heel is normal to narrow so there is no slippage despite a wide forefoot area. There is a lot of room in the toe box (forefoot area) which is great because my son tends to get ingrown toe nails. He has had no problems recently with this. The shoes also hold up well after getting wet, but I did spray them first. I will definitely purchase this brand again.

I've purchased several pairs of Keens for myself in the past. As soon as he put these on his feet, my son no longer felt sad they don't light up or have characters on them. He ran around the house, yelling, "They are so comfy! You made a good choice, mama!" They are easy for him to get on and they fit very well and a much better choice than the cheap awful Spiderman shoes he'd talked me into previously, only to have them stretch out so loose on his feet he could barely walk.

I bought these shoes for my six year old son who wears out a typical pair of tennis shoes in about six weeks. He wears the same size in these shoes as he does in his Keen's sandals, and so far they are holding up very well. We have had them for about a month. He finds them very comfortable and wants to wear them every day. I have been very pleased with the purchase - well worth the money.

My 4 year-old son loves these shoes. He has a wide foot and they fit perfectly. He especially likes the "laces" that make him feel like he's wearing big boy shoes (they are just for looks - they don't actually tie). The velcro strap is great and they're easy for him to get on and take off by himself. He has a size 12 and I plan to get him the next size up.

I decided upon this shoe for my 5 year old son. They fit him perfectly with adequate room in the toe box. I love the easy on Velcro and the overall durability of this shoe plus they look cool!

We love these shoes. We have just purchased our second pair. They are easy for a small child to put on and once you wipe up the dust, they hardly show any wear.

Bought these Keens for my son a year ago and he wore them all of the time until he outgrew them. They are are durable and rugged and perfect for toddlers. Unfortunately they do not come in half sizes, so I ordered a size up - which is rather large. He will have to wait a bit to wear this pair, but I liked them enough to not send them back.

This is our second pair of these. They are sturdy and keep their good looks. Good for children with wider feet. Keep the feet pretty dry in our Pacific Northwest weather.

My soon to be 3 year old resists new shoes at the change of season. These are the only pair that he didn't fuss about. The true fitting is difficult to check due to the toe part of the shoe being hard but watching my son play in them I can see the shoes are a good fit and comfortable for him and I love the style.

Great shoe! Comfy on my 3 year old's kinda wide foot, true to size. Cute and tough, an excellent buy. Love Keen's quality materials and design, love Zappos' quality service!

My 3 year old loves these. We've had them for over a month, and they've become the daily shoe for daycare. One great feature is that the tongue of the shoe is velcro'd to the strap to keep it in place. Great design, and great quality. No more blisters!

An awesome shoe, as are most Keen's. Easy on and off, sturdy, good sole, nice colors, light and comfortable. Especially good for a wider foot and high instep. My very picky 4 year old loves these shoes! One note: runs about a full size smaller than marked.

This is actually our second purchase if these shoes, and my two year old son loves them! He has a rather wide foot, but this shoe fits him perfectly, despite it's regular width. The elastic closure at the front end and Velcro closure allow him to put the shoes on himself. This shoe is comfortable, sturdy and stylish. It's another incredible product from Keen!

Very sturdy shoe. I have bought brands that are a lot more money than this shoe and the velcro strap sewing comes apart. This shoe is well made and comfortable. I think overall it is a great shoe. I think if I put my son in a sport that I would recommend a real athletic running shoe - this is more of an everyday shoe - but I think it is on the wide side and does not have the arch support needed for say, floor hockey, or basketball.

Great shoes! My son is very picky about what is on his feet and he seems to love these shoes as much as his tennis shoes.

These are fantastic kids shoes, and we find them well worth the price, considering our son really only has one pair of shoes at a time. The color of these makes them perfect as sneakers, light hikers, and even w/little khakis for a more dressed-up look. They're well-shaped for a little kid's foot, well-made, and easy to get on and off. We'll definitely be buying them again.

I love these shoes. My son has a wide and thick foot and I have found that Keens are the only shoes that fit him perfect. Not only are they stylish, but I don't have to worry about his feet hurting from being cramped! The velcro is great for easy on and off, too! I highly recommend these shoes! Also, I love Zappos because their prices are so reasonable and you can't beat the free shipping both ways! Thanks Zappos!

OK, this is the cutest, roughest, toughest, \'school\' shoe our 3 year old could dream up! It\'s easy enough for him to put on all by himself and such great colors (black olive w/ orange accents) for his fall wardrobe. We went up a half size, but with socks and the nice padded collar, it fits great. This was a natural progression from a summer spent in Keen sandals AND his uncle even has the \'big man\' version of Austin!

Our boys also wear Vincent, Converse and Nike shoes.
