Slightly hard to get on but maybe just need to be broken in. Very cool first day of school shoes!

I ordered the wide width based on the width of the sole of my child's foot and expected it would provide a wider toe box (as size charts, the word width and the widest part of a human's foot would suggest) but these are not made this way.
Suitable if your child has a high volume foot! As in if you typically can't get the velcro closed on their shoes, they have big ankles or if they have assistive devices which need space.

Overall they are cute. But suggested to go either a half or whole size up because the banded shoe strings. Very difficult to put on and tight

Cute shoes but advertised for wide feet and didn't even get halfway on my son's feet so I had to send them back

We tried nike with no luck, did some research and decided on these, turned out great. We would recommend.

My little girl loves these! She’s just turning 4, can easily get these on and off easily, and they stay on her feet when she plays. They look way better in person than in the pictures and fit well.

Great stability and stay on capacity on our 12th month's old little boy! A stylish way to discover the world! Easy to put on also! Fits great with our baby's feet (little bump/thick on the top of the foot)

My toddler son inherited very wide hobbit feet from myself. He doesn't like wearing shoes and takes them off any time he can. These shoes are so light and fit him so well. He has been running and playing without ever messing with his feet. I'm very impressed with these shoes. Definitely need to buy more for him as he grows.

Easy to slip on/off and appear to be true to size.

My daughter just loves purple so of course we had to buy these shoes. They’re super light and have a flexible sole and overall seem to be a good shoe. Of course you can never get a review from a toddler except ‘I love these purple shoes’ (lol) I ended up going up a half size for her since we’re in between sizes and they fit great. I would say they’re true to their size

My grandson is 5 yrs old. He has to wear wide shoes. I'm so glad I found wide shoes.

We love these shoes! I used the printable size guide off the new balance website to measure my daughters feet. The paper gave us a size 7.5 so we were very surprised that when we received them the 7.5 was huge! I see a lot of reviews about them running small and being hard to put on but we didn't have that issue at all. They are super easy to slide on. My daughter has chunky feet so we order the wide size which may be the reason they are easy to get her foot into? Either way these are amazing and we just ordered a size down to see if that fit is better

My daughter absolutely loves these shoes and so do I. They seem to be good quality, they’re easy for her to get on and take off, and they are very cute! I will say however, make sure that you go with the wide width when you order. My daughter has narrow feet and I ordered the regular width first, but they were wayy too narrow. I returned and then reordered the wide width and they fit perfect! Other than width they are true to size. So order your kids size but in a wide and you’ll be set!

The shoes are really cute for a 2 yr old girl. I was very disappointed they didn’t come in original packaging. I hope they are new?

These look really comfortable and stylish. The only issue is getting them onto a toddler's foot - They don't really loosen enough to do this easily so we'll probably return to the velcro straps. A shame as they're much better looking than the velcro styles.

We have only had these shoes for 2 weeks and they are already falling apart and fraying in multiple places.
