After a wash all seams look worn and loose with dangling drawstrings. Not what I expected from this brand. My son's Target brand shoes lasted much better and were $12. You should be able to toss them in the washing machine from time to time to keep them from going bad.

I am very disappointed in the durability of these tennis shoes. I bought these on the 21st October for my then 5 year old son and almost immediately they were rubbing hard on his toes and now 8 months later there are a few holes in the toe box and the material is peeling off the sides. This is the first pair of Stride-Rite shoes that my boy has failed.

The shoes are great and the kid loves them at school this year. Well done. The only criticism of the velcro is that the threads stick out at the edges, but that doesn't bother much. They are worth it for foot support and longevity with all its energy!

It was great...until they were. I don't know why but after a few months my son's feet stank TERRIBLE. He is 6 and has NEVER had this problem. The shoes smelled awful, so I put them outside to air, dried his feet, and turned back to his sneakers. Since then he has had no more problems. I will no longer buy Stride rights.

They fit and seem to last longer than it takes them to grow. This is my fifth pair of Stride Rites and I will continue to buy them.

I bought these shoes for my 2 year old a month ago and they already have a hole in the top of the shoe. He is 2 years old, he runs and crawls outside in kindergarten. These shoes have to withstand it, but they don't.

The size is correct, the quality is excellent. The Velcro runs the full length of the strap which is great for my son's wide foot. The previous pair of Stride Rites only had a small velcro strap and his little fat foot could tear out of it!

Not durable at all. The faux leather material on the toe of the shoe wore out in less than a month. The shoes are wearable but look terrible.

I received these shoes exactly 13 days ago for my toddler who has worn them about 5 times. They are already torn and the thread breaks. For $45 I expect them to last longer and I'm disappointed as there was a Rite of Steps we bought from Nordstrom before and they lasted a long time.

Like many other reviews, my 3 year old had a toe that fell apart within 2 weeks. It looks like it's reinforced with some kind of rubber or leather, but it's actually something like cardboard starch, and the kid, who's a toddler, breaks through it.

These shoes are perfect for my son's everyday play. They protect and cushion his little foot and he can move around in it easily. They are lightweight and durable. quality shoes.

They are much more durable than the shoes I found for my son before. From day one he seemed very comfortable in it and had no walking/tangling issues. They have a wide foot option by simply taking out the insert, which is great if you find them too narrow. My son has wider feet I would say but we didn't have to remove the insoles. They held up much better than the sneakers I had for him before and they were comparable in price.

I heard the Stride Rite kids shoes are good quality and look cute so I bought them for my 4 year old. What mistake! This is by far the worst purchase I have ever made from Revain. My son only uses them a few times a week when he goes to school and the occasional walk and he does NOT wear heavy shoes. The front only started to wear out after 2 weeks but I kept them because they are wide and comfortable. The front openings are getting bigger and today it's just the side hinge that broke. That's…

My son and I loved them when we first got them. However, they only lasted ONE month! He wore them almost every day, but he hasn't started school or kindergarten yet, so he doesn't wear shoes all day - every day. Therefore, they should NOT wear out in such a short time. When I noticed the hole in the sole of the right boot (which is almost flush with the inner lining - if you press the hole with the boot on, you can clearly feel the ball of your foot) we were already two days later the return…
