Customer Reviews New Balance Kids Rave Run v2 Bungee Lace with Hook-and-Loop Top Strap (Little Kid/Big Kid)

These shoes look great and my daughter seems to really like them (special needs). BUT - the tongue is not sewn in so she is not able to put them on herself. Well, she can put them on but the tongue gets jammed and folded over. Disappointing.

My daughter loves these sneakers

Nice shoes but the Velcro closure stopped working after about 5 months of wearing which was disappointing

fit and size are great - however the velco strap that closes the shoe wore off in less than a month and now my daughter won't wear them because they keep coming undone.

Good shoe

Bought these for my pre-teen grand daughter - she absolutely loves them. She is hard to fit, but these fit perfectly!

Definitely recommend for kiddos with wider feet

I have a toddler with SUPER wide feet. These are the ONLY shoes we could find that fit him! He loves pink, these are comfortable and have held up well! No complaints!

My adult disabled sister has very small feet, that are very wide. Zappos is the best resource for finding sizes that fit, that don't look too juvenile, yet close with velcro. My sister is always excited to see the Zappos box get delivered!

My daughter loves everything about her shoes. Beautiful and comfortable.

My daughter loves it. She said that it's very comfortable and the most she likes color))

I was hoping for this to last at least a year, but only made it to around 6-7 months. Several parents I have talked to said that it will be normal to go through 2 pairs every school year. The new balance toddler shoes lasted for more than a year, but I guess as children grow up, the life of kids sneakers are shortened. This lasted better than the New Balance Rave Run v2 I replaced it with, but if I had chosen the style without the velcro strap, and just regular shoe laces, it probably would have lasted longer. So parents, for convenience, get the one with the strap; for longevity get the one without the strap. Good luck.

These were great at first, but the velcro closure failed after just four months.

Super cute but so narrow, even the wide size. My 3 year old told me they were too tight.
