Customer Reviews New Balance Kids J4040v4 Baseball (Little Kid/Big Kid)

These cleats are great. My son has wide feet and it is difficult to get comfortable cleats for him. These are the only cleats he has never complained about. Zappos costumer service was great and the shipping was fast.

We have the hardest time finding shoes wide enough for my son's feet. We have bought this product three times, in various sizes. Despite the amount of wear and tear, they've never worn out. With a wash, they almost look like new when they are outgrown. A bargain for the price. Cannot recommend them enough. My first grader loves the "camo" look, which is really nice because we normally don't have much of a style selection for his width.

My 10 year old son has a narrow foot and these seem a little wide on his foot.

This is the second pair I've bought for my son. They last very long with growing feet being the only needs to order a new pair after 3 seasons of LL. The first pair we bought were great, he has wide feet so they were perfect for that and he liked the style. This pair was somewhat disappointing as the tongue seems way to short and just barely keeps the top of the laces off the foot. Also, my son complains that his heels kill him after each game. Not sure why but these shoes seem to have a build issue that I have not seen in NB shoes before. I am going to buy him another pair and will, unfortunately, get just one season out of these shoes. I won't judge these shoes on one bad experience as I've had so may great ones with NB and, of course, Zappos is great.

My son has a Wide foot and we always struggle to find cleats! I ordered these bc I didnt want to argue with him trying on so many pairs in the store. They are Wide enough!!! Thanks!

For a wide width it was not wide. Disappointing. Nice looking shoe but if a wide width isn’t wide then there is no point

My son says it’s way more comfortable than all his previous cleats.

Very cute. Runs small and narrow. Typical of Nike in many styles.

Our daughter has extremely narrow feet and this cleat is the only one that worked- still have to pull laces very tight but she’s an extreme case of narrow

My son takes a 6.5 W in New balance sneakers.I ordered him a 7 W in the cleats and they were too small.They looked great and seemed comfy. Just small.

One of the molded spikes came off the cleat after 4 games. Nice looking cleats but probably would not buy these again.

In mid-March 2019, we purchased three pairs of the New Balance Kids J4040v4 baseball cleats, one for each of our three sons, for the current little league season. After wearing one pair for five times, a cleat/nub snapped off the rear of one of our son's cleats. We checked previous reviews of this brand/model of cleats, and found at least two other instances of this same issue. We called Zappos, and were pleased to be sent a new pair of the same cleats, free of charge. In the meantime, we checked the other two pairs that we purchased for our other two sons, and sure enough found the same issue. After calling customer service a second time, we have been issued full refunds on each of the three pairs of New Balance cleats, and went ahead and purchased different brands of cleats for our three sons from Zappos. All in all, we are very satisfied with the customer service we received from Zappos regarding this issue with the New Balance cleats, and will continue to shop on Zappos. That being said, New Balance products are usually very durable and comfortable, and we all have or had New Balance sneakers in the present/past. It seems that the quality of the cleat material is not of high durability. This is unfortunate, but hopefully this issue will be corrected by New Balance. Thank you Zappos!!!

My daughter loves these cleats, however they are not durable. She is on her second pair this year already. I hoped that the durability issues we're specific to her previous pair. The cleats on her newest pair are already worn significantly, with one cleat completely gone.

These baseball cleats do not hold up unfortunately. They fit well but the cleats themselves are tearing off after only being worn 5 times. I'm really disappointed. We're only one game into baseball season!
