Not the quality you expect from New Balance

As a fan of New Balance for the support and quality of my own running shoes I am disappointed. Bought these for our little guy five weeks ago and they are already worn out. The velcro has snapped, the sole and sock are worn out and I reckon we probably have about 2 or 3 weeks of use left. His previous pair of Sauconys lasted 5 months and were very worn, he had just put them on. growth spurt. Disappointing that I have to buy another pair before it even got too big.

Pros
  • Love it! Velcro for big kids and great hiking protectors
Cons
  • As another reviewer mentioned, the toe box is not stitched. Clay fell apart after a month of wearing.

Nice design and comfortable shoes

Unfortunately, these sneakers are back. After only 2 weeks of use, the fabric ripped around the ankle exposing some plastic parts. Nice design and comfortable shoes but the quality is terrible.

Pros
  • Big shoes, fit well, not the most beautiful sneakers, but they are practical and comfortable.
Cons
  • Cannot maintain proper running form in some children

Works great for a 6 year old boy

Double strap shoes are hard to find and they are perfect for my son who likes to wear tight shoes. The Velcro lasted 5 months at school. Would definitely buy again.

Pros
  • We simply can't go wrong with New Balance shoes for our little one. Large sizing options equal a great fit!
Cons
  • May not provide enough ankle support for kids who need it

These shoes won't last very long.

Bought several pairs for my kids. These are really good shoes, but they wear out very quickly. The front sock fabric was separating from the material and the pair had to be returned after two weeks.

Pros
  • My son has sensory issues and is picky about shoes. They were very comfortable and true to size.
Cons
  • The fit is a bit large so it might be good for a fast growing baby.

The best in my rating doesn't last long

I received them for my son in the first week of September. He's been wearing them every other day for a month, this is the first week of October and the toe is coming off and there are already holes/tears on the sides.

Pros
  • Good quality shoes, colors as in the photo. My son loves green so he loves these shoes.
Cons
  • Shoelaces often unravel

Wouldn't buy a second time

New Balance usually have great products and we have a lot of their shoes at home and two little guys walking around but I wouldn't buy this particular shoe again. Bright orange is cool for the first week, until your little one inevitably gets them dirty and they look awful. They hide no dirt at all. The velcro tongues ripped the top layer off the velcro backing for the first few weeks so we have to put them on without using the velcro strip or we risk just ripping off the entire tongue to keep…

Pros
  • Imported
Cons
  • Crumpled

Poor quality

I bought several pairs of these shoes for my son. In early September I bought a size smaller and half a size larger. The smaller one fitted well but I left the larger one as I really liked the style and fit. However, the couple split after 6 weeks. At first I blamed my son's use and ordered another pair in the same size. However, the second pair tore after 2 weeks (along the seams and even a piece of the sole broke off). At this point I concluded it was a quality issue and was able to return a…

Pros
  • Rubber sole
Cons
  • I will add later
