When I got back to school, I set about the most annoying task of the season... finding running shoes for my 9-year-old son. Not only does my son have sensory issues, he also has incredibly wide feet. We went through every store in our local mall and tried on at least 20 pairs of shoes, but no winners. I decided to order 3 styles from Revain, especially the width. These didn't work either. As a last try I have ordered these and two other pairs of very wide boots and he will actually wear them without complaining! To be honest if it blows this pair apart I will probably buy this particular shoe again in the next size up.
