Customer Reviews Nike Kids Downshifter 8 (Little Kid)

Bought these in a size 11 and my son hadn't worn them so since within 30 days, I returned this style and bought them in a size 11.5. They are a little too big, as far as length, but he's a growing boy and since we have medium to wide feet, I usually have to buy a 1/2 size up in Nike's. These are wider than most Nike's, as the brand is normally narrow. I love the width of these, the material is an easy wipe and clean and my son thinks they make him go fast like Flash. They are a winner!

Our 5 year old son loves these shoes. The Velcro strap makes it easy for him to put them on and off himself - no tying laces.

Fit great! My son has a slightly wider foot and we used to have to order wides, but this style fits his foot well. This is our third pair!

Fits true to size. Great shoe! Very happy with these.

Shipped fast, great price and my son loves them. Super cool new shoes. Great quality and will but again.

3rd pair of downshifters and they’ve all been great

Got them for my 5 yr old. He loves them- comfortable and easy for him to take on and off! Fits true to size

Well constructed, sturdy and my six year old loves it. No complaints from him.

We love these for my 6 year old. Nike's fit him really well and are both light and sturdy. We wore our last Nike's out in just two months, but he wears them almost every day and is very rough on them playing outside. I found these on sale and overall they are worth it for style and comfort. He loves the way they feel and can easily get them on and off himself, which is the most important thing!!

My 6 year old was very happy with these shoes! They look great too!

My son LOVES these Nikes! The downshifter style tends to fit his foot better. We tried a different Nike style in the same size and they were very tight on him but these fit perfectly, so much so we bought him another pair!

Great quality shoes, he says they are more comfy that his last ones.

This is our second pair and my son loves these! Good quality and nice looking shoe. My only complaint is that they do seem a little narrow, even for my sons pretty narrow foot. Definitely wouldn’t wear thick socks with these shoes.

My son loves them. He has narrow feet. If your child has chubby or wide feet, this is not the shoe for you.

Great fit, great shoe!

These are working out great for my son so far. We always try to order new shoes a little bigger than immediately needed, so they will last for more than 2 weeks :) These seem to be comfortable on his foot and don't slip off or trip him up.

My 6 year old son wears these every day and loves them! They are great for school, sports, running etc

My son loves these

My son loves these, especially these squishy bottoms.

Great show for kids.

Super cute and easy to put on. You don’t have to worry about laces, just the Velcro which was super easy and convenient. I returned these simply because I ordered a pair of new balances at the same time and I liked the NB pair better.

Our local stores didn’t have these in my son’s size, so I was happy to find them on Zappos. Luckily with their fast, free shipping they got to us just in time for his first day of Pre-K. My son claims they make him run faster :-), but either way they’re great, sporty little shoes and he loves them.

Great for my 4yo. We only buy Nike for the boys, only shoes that fit nicely.

My 6 year old son has always had nike shoes. These were the worst quality ones we ever had. They didn't last as long as any other styles he's had.

These were a very nice shoe for small kids. We just preferred the Nike Kids Flex Experience Run 7 for our 4-yr old, so we returned this pair. Of the two styles, I would say this pair had a slightly slimmer profile (more like a running shoe than a court shoe).
