Review on New Balance Girls Athletic Running Shoes in Garnet for Girls by Lauren Smith

I bought these because they were recommended as durable and supportive shoes for kids with toe tilt and overpronation. I bought them in a large size to fit my child's small arches which she could use without taking the insoles out of these shoes. She has slightly wide feet. She immediately found these shoes very comfortable. The combination of these shoes and insoles completely relieved her foot pain. Hooray! Amazing win! HOWEVER. The shoes were in tatters after just a month of use. The bottom is falling off, the laces are snapped, the side panels are coming off the boot. They were delivered in September and they were in this condition in less than four weeks (and the weather here in September/October was very mild so she was still wearing her summer sandals or soccer shoes about half of that time). By mid-October they were in such bad condition that she could no longer use them. To say these shoes disappointed is an understatement. 80 bucks down the drain. Attention buyers.
