Best wide kids sneaker

The widest width I've found for kids. Bought this style from the NB brand for years. They machine wash well and last a long time.

Pros
  • Easy to read panel
Cons
  • Contact seller

Not durable, fell apart after 2 weeks, small and narrow.

They are very small and slim. The rubber bands are also very short. They fell apart completely after 2 weeks of being worn to school for a few hours a day. I had to beg for a replacement/exchange for a new pair from Revain.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Hard to say

Very poor quality good for shoes

I wonder if this is fake - there are obvious defects (rubber enters at the weld on the heel) and the way of the fabric and in the other it is not even glued, creating a flap into which any dirt will fall. awkward. It all smells pretty funny. Stay away.

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • there are doubts

Pros
  • Synthetic and mesh
Cons
  • Out of style

the stitching was very loose

Some bits of stitching broke when we just received this one but I didn't think it mattered because every time I've bought New Balance sneakers they have been very durable. This time, however, it was not so. It fell apart after just a week of wearing! Oh my God! I can't believe these are real New Balance shoes! I was so disappointed. I should have paid attention and asked for a replacement when I saw the stitching coming undone. My daughter didn't wear this initially and it stayed in the box for

Pros
  • These soft kids' sneakers come in a variety of colors ranging from neutral tones to bold hues and come in a range of shades to suit your child's style and color preferences
Cons
  • Piggy bank prize

Tears at front toe seam

I bought the exact same shoes for one of my twins last day from The Store on the Upper West Side was open before being forced to close due to the pandemic. This boot tore near the front toe seam in less than two weeks. And with the schools closing two days later, there wasn't as much attrition as is usual for a five-year-old boy. I contacted this store and even though they were closed someone went into the store to try and send me a replacement but they were no longer that size. So I shopped at

Pros
  • Strength in simplicity: The New Balance 680v6 running shoes for kids have a minimal leather and open mesh upper for flexible support and airflow
Cons
  • thin
