"My daughter has inserts and needs wide shoes. She also hates to tie her shoes. These are the best athletic shoes for kids with wide feet! There aren't many good athletic shoes in larger sizes that use Velcro. These are all of those things. We are on pair number 3 as her feet grow. Her physical therapist recommends New Balance and we couldn't be happier."
Pros: wide sizes, velcro for big kids
Cons: only one velcro strap
Yes, I recommend this product.

"Our little girl has wide little feet and we have just gotton her orthodicd to aid in the development of her toes to avoid future foot problems. This shoe has a removable insert and a nice deep interior which leaves plenty of space for her foot and the orthodox. She days her feet feel extra comfy now. You only have one pair of feet so take care of them."
Pros: Breathable, orthodic friendly

"My Daughter and I just love these shoes! My Daughter thinks they are comfortable. I think they are cute (small details on the N) and easy to put on. It's just an all around great shoe. The only thing that seemed a little different to me about the shoe from the picture compared to reality is the color. It looks like a lighter pink online but it's actually a brighter pink...not neon or anything but it is not a soft pink."
Pros: Lightweight, Good traction, Breathable, Durable, adorable
Yes, I recommend this product.
