My son loves this shoe and it’s all he wants to wear. The closure is just genius!

We absolutely love these shoes because they fit well and are comfortable. The first pair lasted wearing them every day for 6 months until my son's feet grew and needed new ones. The BOA system is both handy for kids who aren't tying shoes but also a wonderful way to adjust the fit and comfort. We looked everywhere for them and could not find any. I am assuming it was just a supply chain issue and are so happy they are back. Do not discontinue and keep making them and don't stop a little kid sizes. My son is a 6 and he'll want them again when he is a size 7 etc.

My kids are 5 and 10, and they hate tying their shoes. They run around in crocs all day. I convinced them these shoes were going to be more comfortable and they agree they are. I love the BOA system and they do too.

My 8 year old son has Autism and ADHD and struggles with tying his shoes. These are amazing and allow him to put on and take off by himself. He's more confident now in the mornings and doesn't have to worry about asking someone to tie his shoes for him when he's away from home. Thank you for these.

My younger and older son both love these sneakers (both the look and fit!). We have had these sneakers before and will order again.

My son is into Stem and thinks these are cool stem shoes plus no laces to tie because who has time for that! Fits great very durable and he wears them everyday! Wish they came in more colors!

My son loves these sneakers! They are the most comfortable sneakers he's ever had. I like that there was a wide option, how easy they are to put on and take off and, what a nice shoe overall it is.

My 11 year old boy loves these shoes. He has extremely high arches that cause pain in the ball of his foot in most shoes and sensory processing disorder, he hates too tight shoes. These are perfect. This is our 3rd pair and they always last a full year for him. I will continue buying these for him and I hope they don't ever stop making!

The colors are as vibrant as they look. The lack of laces takes a bit to get used to but is rad. My son gets compliments everywhere he goes!

My kid really likes these. He asked for the exact same shoe in the next size up. They're quick to put on for the morning rush.

Amazing shoe, stylish and true to size, my child with a high arch and high instep loves them. The closure system is ingenious, takes a second to put on or take off. I was worried it would be flimsy but it's not, the cable is incredibly strong. My active kid has been wearing them 7 months and they have held up great.

Had already purchased this style but in a different color way before, because it was a perfect fit and rely upon the different widths that New Balance makes available .

Very bright colors and he loves that you don’t have to tie them. These are perfect for kids with disabilities or coordination issues.

Kid felt very cool rocking these colorful shoes. The strings that attach to the crank to tighten seem very thin but so far so good.

My son's favorite shoes. He liked them so much I bought them in the next two sizes before they sold out. Has held up well over the last 6 months of rain, dirt and recess play!

My son hates laces. I was skeptical of durability, especially because the wiry thread didn't seem very durable. I was also concerned the knob would break off. He's had these for nearly 5 months & they are holding up well. The knob did actually pop off one day when it got caught on something. I was pretty upset until my son suddenly exlaimed that he had popped up right back on. That was over a month ago & no problems. Only downside is that the knob is pretty stiff & he sometimes has trouble getting it to pop in & out.
