Review on 👟 SRTech Wes Casual Sneaker: Top Choice for Active Kids - Stride Rite Unisex-Child by Michael Lucas

I was skeptical about buying these shoes because of the elastic laces. My son has swollen feet which I noticed as a baby and I have never been able to get his feet into any of the shoes with these laces which are 90% of children and toddler shoes. So we mainly opted for shoes with velcro, where you can make the hole wider and control the pressure on the foot by adjusting the velcro. But even with them, there are few styles that come in large widths and I'm tired of buying him the same shoes over and over again, so I decided to try them because the brand values the right fit and they offer large sizes. They actually fit my 2.5 year old surprisingly well. I have no problem putting them on or taking them off. He doesn't have the vocabulary yet to tell me how he feels, but the insoles are really soft and he seems comfortable in them. He walks normally in clothes and I don't see any red marks on his legs when I take them off. They feel good and look a little better than traditional athletic shoes. The only thing not great is the price, but I sincerely think the quality should support the higher price. It only stinks because they outgrow it so quickly at that age, but any shoe that doesn't hurt your feet is an asset to us. I also bought them new in an open box which helped offset the sticker shock a bit.
