Review on Merrell Mix Master Jam Running Girls' Shoes by Liberty Nayak

My son usually wears Keens sneakers and they last at least three quarters of the school year. He really liked her style and color. As a fan of the Merrell brand (I own a pair myself) and based on the good reviews I bought him two pairs a half size apart as children grow so quickly at this age. School starts at the end of August. By Thanksgiving, the shoes were falling apart, with holes in the upper mesh in multiple places. He switched to a new/larger pair (which was a good fit until then). They've already started falling apart in the same way, and it's not even Valentine's Day yet. At $45 each, the shoes lasted less than 90 days. Not the best value for money.
