Review on ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ New Balance 680 V6 Hook and Loop Running Shoe - Unisex Youth by Donnie Boss

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Suitable for high insteps and wide feet

My 2.5 year old son has an extremely high instep together with wide feet. New Balance shoes seem to be the only ones that fit him, and don't cost $50 or more for a pair that he'll outgrow in a few months. We can't fully fit his foot into most shoes, let alone close or zip up the top of his foot. I ordered them in size X and his legs fit easily. You can see how high his instep is as the velcro still doesn't fully close, but his shoe stays on and feels comfortable. Note: Not all New Balance shoes are compatible. We had to bring back another style because even though we ordered the wide one, no amount of cramming would allow his heel to sink into the shoe. Although it's great.

Pros
  • Soft underfoot cushioning: ABZORB midsole absorbs shock with a combination of cushioning and compressive strength to keep these kids shoes comfortable all day
Cons
  • Wrinkled packaging
