"These are super easy for my son to get on and off and he loves them.The only thing that I do not like is I thought they would look cleaner because they are darker than some of the other shoes I had looked at but they do look really dirty even after one time of playing outside for my son. I know boys get dirty so I just expect it for the most part. I would like to find a shoe that stays looking clean for longer than one day."
Pros: Lightweight
Cons: not as durable as i thought
Yes, I recommend this product.

"I ordered this sneaker in a wide since my son has wide feet, but still the velcro didn't reach far enough to latch on the other side. too bad, since I thought these were a nice, neutral shoe. I ended up ordering a different new balance sneaker and had no problems."
No, I do not recommend this product.

"With a 2 year old wearing the clothes and shoe size of a 4/5 year old, it is hard to keep his closet up to date with a wardrobe he can actually fit. Fortunately Famous Footwear provides fashionable, practical, and supportive shoes at an affordable cost. My growing boy plays with ease and comfort in these New Balance shoes. The color helps to mask the dirt collected from intense outdoor play and she still has room to wiggle his toes and run with ease."
Pros: Good traction, Cushioning, Durable
Yes, I recommend this product.

"Unfortuneately, in my son's size, FF only carries the wide width shoe and it was far too wide for my son's narrow feet; however, NB are still his favorite shoe and we were able to purchase the right width elsewhere. It would be nice is FF would carry the regular size in this shoe."
Yes, I recommend this product.
