My Grandson loves the shoes, he has not learned to tie so these are great.

We are on our second pair of New Balance 624v2 shoes. My son wears AFOs, and he also has a diagnosis of Autism. He is 13 years old, and although shoe tying is something we hope he can master one day, it's very difficult for him to master right now. My husband and I felt so fortunate to have found these New Balance 624v2 shoes because he has a wide foot to begin with, but last winter when he had to be fitted with AFOs due to toe walking and then Equinus. When we first laid eyes on the AFOs, we were nervous because we knew there was no way the cumbersome AFOs would fit comfortably into his current wide shoes. These shoes came in an "XW" and also have hook-and-loop closures which is precisely what we needed. Thank you, New Balance! One less thing we special needs parents have to stress out about. ;)

Purchased these in March for my 6 year old and I'm writing this review in June and he's still wearing them. These shoes are worn everyday and the seams and toe of the shoe is still sturdy. Pricier than other shoes but they last.

These shoes look and fit great. I have not really tried them on as they are for school in fall. I will update in the fall.

I have a child with special needs. It is getting harder and harder to find sneakers with Velcro instead of laces in his size. Zappos always comes through and provides a good sneaker at a great price!

Bought these shoes in size 2 wide for my 7 year old. He loves them. Easy to get on/off with the velcro and they are sturdy without being heavy.

New Balance is a winner after trying numerous other companies. Their Sneakers are made to last! They also are true to size and have a great arch.

Great shoes for preK or kindergarten - especially for those who wear uniforms. These shoes fit the bill for what was required with his dress code. He says they are very comfy. Happy we were able to get them in wide!

Very pleased with the quality of the new balance shoes I ordered for my son. My son has special needs and wears AFO's and it is difficult to find shoes for his braces to fit into, but these new balance shoes fit his AFOs perfect!

Love the fit of this shoe and ease of on and off for a preschool, good fit width wise as another brand I have tried was too narrow of a fit. Great and comfortable for a uniform shoe needed in plain black.

These shoes are great for wide small feet. They are easy to put on and look good. They are durable and easy to clean. This is the second pair I've ordered.

If your child needs shoes to wear over DAFO's look no further! My daughter has special needs and wears DAFO's on her ankles. It is very difficult to find shoes that have Velcro (easy to put on) and wide enough to accommodate the DAFO inside. I have tried many shoes/brands and this New Balance Kids KV624 is the best! I bought the all white style in extra wide in her size. There is plenty of room to put the shoe on over her DAFO, even without removing the insole. I love these shoes and will purchase them again!

These are solid school shoes that seem to fit true to size. They are nice for my daughter who still has a tough time tying her shoes under a time crunch. They work for gym too, so they fit the uniform code.

This is the perfect school shoe for my son who does not want to be
bothered lacing a shoe. This
is the third pair I have
purchased and hope it is always available!

This shoe seems high quality, is nice and wide for my toes, very well cushioned, nice to look at, very stable.
The only drawback is that the straps could be a bit longer.
Overall, I will buy more pairs of this shoe.

Great shoe, well made - all leather. XW fits over AFO's well with just the insert removed (other shoes we have to remove foam in the tongue or other places).

Fantastic for us oldsters! I'm an elderly woman with small feet requiring extra wide shoes. My shoe requirements are nearly impossible to find, and these are the first shoes in 40 years that fit me well and don't cause blisters, pressure sores and overall pain. The construction of these shoes is great, with leather uppers (not cheap mesh or plastic), a comfortable "glove" fit, convenient velcro closings, reasonable (not excessive) rises in the back and over the side ankle bones, and a very stable heel. My feet are now pain free, and I hope that these shoes (in my size) come back in other colors besides white.

My family has never dealt with anyone who was more friendly, courteous, and helpful than your customer service representative. He seemed like one of the family we had known for a long time. Our exchange of children shoes was the easiest ever. I give Zappos the best review of any company I have ever dealt with. Keep up the good work!

"The Viking" My 5 1/2 year old Danish son is 48" tall and his feet can only fit in XW. He is currently in size 1. I have tried different shoe manufacturers, i.e. Stride rite and none of them provide shoes that are soft and have a true XW fit. New Balance is the only shoe that fits him. They are comfortable and the heel is just the right height not to put pressure on his ankle. These are great shoes and what counts is that his feet are comfortable and happy. I wish New Balance made smart boy shoes!

I love these sneakers. Very comfortable and has a great cushion. I wear 5 wide and the Velcro closes perfectly. I want a closet full of these sneakers.

This is a really great product. Ordered for son, and wore almost entire school year. He hates to have to tie his shoes, so these does the trick.
