Hawkwell Outdoor Hiking Little Orange Boys' Shoes for Outdoor Review

The velcro on the boots came loose within a month of wearing the shoes. We tried to be very careful with the velcro but by the age of 3 months it completely failed. Shoes cannot be worn without Velcro. Otherwise the shoes seem to be of good quality and my child really likes them. Maybe I can get velcro and sew creatively. Edit: The manufacturer quickly contacted me and offered to exchange the shoes. They apologized and showed support for their product. Excellent customer service from Hawkwell.

We've had these shoes for 5 weeks (just outside the return window) and have done 2 hikes. The soles are already falling apart. With all the 4 and 5 star reviews I figured this would be our new hiking choice. They were awesome while they lasted but I expect a pair of shoes to go over 5 miles.

Shoes are durable. Ideal for hiking or for school. But they are a bit wide. Not the best choice for narrow feet. Good for medium width.

Bought these in June, didn't use them until mid-August for our trip, the velcro fell off mid-September so the shoes are not reliable. A complete waste of money. I tried unsuccessfully to find out how to contact them here, went to their main page and they said I need to go back to be restored.

I buy them for my daughter every summer. If you are someone who walks a lot or plays in the park a lot, they are perfect. The shoes turned out Really cheap not worth wasting money on. After a week velcro came out, and shoes become use less..

Good and decent shoes, the only problem is that the small side is narrow and it rubs so much that it feels damp and tender after 8 hours in it.

My daughter chose this among the $60 Merrill backpackers. We needed these for a short trip to California and haven't worn them much to say if they hold up overtime, but they fit well, don't blister and are perfect for the first hiker.

My son wore these shoes for 5 days and they are completely torn. Terrible quality! Not even heavy use, just regular wearing!

I bought them because I'm in the so-called rain state. So far they always come home dry (it's autumn/winter). I have noticed that they are starting to wear out and a replacement in a few months would be likely. Good thing this is for a child's foot and not for continuous use depending on the growth rate.

I bought them for my son for Christmas. Now, in mid-February, they are literally falling apart. The entire outsole comes off the toe and is now halfway up the foot.

I ordered these shoes for my son for school. He had his first in less than 3 months. They split up. He liked them so much because of the velcro that I decided to try again as they weren't too expensive and he insisted. This photo is the second pair that didn't even last as long as the others. Please don't waste your money.

I love these shoes! Very well finished, the sizes are perfect and they arrived very quickly. My daughter is obsessed with it and wears it at every opportunity. Definitely recommend!

After a month of wearing, holes formed on them. Initially I was very happy with their appearance until my son showed me the holes that have formed inside. I expect "hiking shoes" to last longer.

They appear to be true to size. Our four year old loved these for outdoor summer camp. They are easy to attach and are of very good quality.

These shoes look good and are waterproof as advertised but the velcro didn't last long. They're already bad and won't last long, hence 3 stars. Now I have to buy new shoes.

These shows are excellent. My boyfriend travels a lot and is very picky about his clothes and shoes. Those shots held up well and gave him great traction. Fits as expected. And the price is unbeatable! I got two pairs for him, I was so impressed!

Bought for my son for everyday use. At first everything looked perfect, but after a month the synthetic rubber band broke and the material weakened. My child is not an active child so there is no hard use of it at all. I thought the base was non-slip but it does slip on gym surfaces. I just threw it in the trash after 3 months.

I bought these for my daughter for our trip to Kauai. We wanted to go camping and it was great! My daughter has narrow feet and has a hard time finding shoes, but this allowed her to tighten or loosen them as needed. The sole has good grip!

Ideal for toddlers when hiking! My 4 year old has wide and large feet, other size 12 shoes are too narrow. They are wide enough and do not hurt the legs. We walked 6 miles and no complaints of "tired" or "sore" legs. I will definitely buy for my daughter when she is ready.

These shoes started out well but got wider so the ankle area was too big. Tongue slips everywhere and now my daughter is uncomfortable with them. waste of money.
