Customer Reviews New Balance Kids FuelCore Reveal (Little Kid)

Great shoe. Most intuitive design...because you know, kids don’t tie shoes anymore. That said, it’s better than traditional laces or Velcro because my son can adjust the dial to exactly the right tightness, which is hard to accommodate when you’re narrow or wide. And they look fantastic. I wish they made them for girls.

These are wonderful, easy shoes for kids. The boa technology works perfectly each time, and my 6 year old loves adjusting them. They also look great! We’ve had them for his past two pairs of tennies. First time he had blue and now has read. Can’t say enough good things. ??

My 7 year old loves these. He knows how to tie shoes but he is always on the go so these were perfect. Will be purchasing same style for a new school year. They held up very well, even in the wash.

Awesome shoes my kids love them

Ordered these for my 6 year old son with very wide feet and high arches. The wide fit perfect on him and are super comfortable. He can easily adjust them and love that they breathe well and his feet don’t stink at the end of the day. Had to get the younger child a pair as well. Perfect for my 4 year old to put on and take off my himself. Morning timesaver!!! They were pricey but worth it. I hope they hold up until they outgrow them.

Love this shoe! Wish they had them for adults. My son loves the button tie on the shoes.

My son is picky about his shoes. He is almost 5, but big for his age (he wears a size 8 in clothes). He has been wearing the New Balance velcro shoes, but recently with his new pair the tongue hasn't been laying right/the seams have been bothering him. He was readjusting his shoes frequently. I was so happy to find these and they were a success! They look very comfortable.

Bought these for my 4 yr old.. He has wide thick feet... these go on VERY EASY and the BOA adjustment is awesome! I will buy more of these in the future if they continue to make them!

Our picky little one loved these shoes.

The youngest grandson was not comfortable in his shoe. He has a wider foot. The oldest grandson LOVES the shoe. He likes to have the shoe tightened on his foot. This works great for him!!

5 year old loves this shoe!!!

4 year old boy loves this shoe

My son loves these!! He is almost 6 and thinks the little adjustment knob is awesome. In fact, his little brother is dying for a pair too! We aren’t quite ready to start tying yet, so these are an awesome alternative to Velcro. Velcro always gets filled with fuzz abs eventually loses its stick! I am hopeful these will last a long time. Also, there isn’t a tongue to keep pulling out so they are super easy to put on! Love them!

My son loves these and thinks the tightening mechanism is really cool. The blue is bright without being too purple. I hope the knob lasts but time will tell.

Found these while looking for a wide, no tie shoe. My kids both love these shoes! They've never loved shoes before. The coolness factor of the dial system is unparalleled. They find them very comfortable and would rather not take them off. Ever. My youngest wears a little kids standard width and my oldest wears a big kid wide. Fit is great on both. I hope they hold up well!

My 7 year old loves this - easy to tighten and loosen for kiddos - not a winter shoe probably

My son loved the dial!

I got these for my son who still has trouble with laces but felt “too old” for Velcro shoes. He loved them! They have the great fit of New Balance shoes with an extra “cool factor” of the dial. I definitely recommend these shoes for a child that may have sensory issues or challenges tying shoes! Highly recommend!

My son loooooves these shoes for school. He has never said that about any shoes ever! He says they r super cool ?? and comfortable and he loves the fact that he doesn’t have to tie his shoes:)

Good fit and easy for my son to wear.

These are a great option for my son who didn't want velcro shoes but still struggles to tie laces on his own. The dial works very easy to tighten shoes and my son figured out how to tighten/remove within a minute. We ordered a W size and it fit his foot easily. A stylish option and a cool closure for all ages.

My 5 year old loves these. Not much arch support or cushion on the bottom, but that seems par for the course on kid's shoes these days.

My son absolutely loves these shoes

My son absolutely loved these! Easy to get on and he loves the no laces! Really cool and easy to secure. Fit was true to size. My other kids want pairs now too!

My 7 year old really wanted these shoes, to match his bestie. Both boys seem to love them, and never complain that they're uncomfortable. They seem fairly durable, including the closure. I like that a wide width is available, as I think these run a little narrow.
