Customer Reviews New Balance Kids Fresh Foam Arishi v2 (Little Kid/Big Kid)

My son loves these. The color is bright. The sides are soft and have give so he is comfortable and he didn’t complain about the heel area at all. (A first for him) Overall very pleased.

My son loves these shoes. He says they are comfortable. He is rough on his shoes and these still look great after months of wear.

I bought these for my son and at first he thought there was a wonky piece of foam in the shoe. He didn’t wear them for a very long time but tried them on again and thought he would live with it. They have become his everyday shoe and he reports that he does in fact run a little faster with them on.

Perfect for my sons wide foot. Great selection and price. Fast delivery

My son loves these fun shoes!

Shoe fits my 9 year old son perfectly. His feet are a little wider and these shoes are indeed a little wider as advertised.

My son loved the color and can’t stop running in them

I love these shoes!! I may even buy another pair because I like them so much. They are very comfortable and stylish. They come with regular shoe laces which is great. I hate shoes with Velcros!! Velcro doesn't last long. I had a difficult time finding kid shoes with regular laces. So glad I found these.

The Shoes fit my kiddo perfectly. One shoe had a part on it that was messed up and Zappos was so easy to work with. I called and they got a new pair shipped out and i received them very quickly. Love Zappos and will get shoes only from Zappos.

My son loves the color yellow and had to have this shoe. The fit was perfect and very comfortable.

Our 3 year old loved these as do we! Great color, seems comfortable, but ran a bit small. We traded in for a bigger size and are good to go and of course Zappos is the best!

My son said he feels really awesome wearing these shoes!

Be specific about your likes and dislikes. How was the fit and size? What does the material feel like? How awesome (or not) do you feel wearing them?

very cute shoes and my son loved them. however, the fabric isn’t very sturdy and the toes wore out in a few months. I wouldn’t recommend for active kids who are hard on shoes.

They seemed a little small for being wide.. My son has bear feet and he complained that it was to tight

These were so cute! I"m an adult with small feet so i can wear kids shoes. I wish these fit but they ran VERY NARROW! I ordered a wide and they felt more narrow-medium. I'm going to try to hunt them down in an ex wide if possible. I think the length was probably appropriate but overall they were smaller than expected. The colors were great and i do wish they fit.

Ordered this version by mistake-this is essentially a slip-on, non-adjustable bungie laces

THese are so cute, but the quality is horrible. Really disappointed. Within less than 2 months the New Balance logo stitching had come out and there was a huge hole in the side of the shoe. The fabric over both toe boxes completely broke apart. They were adorable, but the quality just wasn’t there.

We have had them for not even two months and they are completely falling apart. They are ripping in the toe box and are all frayed on both shoes in the exact same spot. That has never happened with any other shoe my son has worn.

The wide size felt narrow.
