Ultimate Performance: New Balance Kids' Fresh Foam Arishi V3 Lace-up Running Shoe Review

Good: -Light weight -Removable insole -I like the gray color, it's neutral and goes well with most outfits -The laces are the right size, not too long and not too short, about 43 inches long -The soles have good Just. Bad : - The tongue seam is sewn well but the bottom part looks unfinished and dirty. I love these New Balance shoes because they fit me perfectly. I wear women's size 4.5-5 or children's size 2-3. I ordered size 3 in New Balance Arishi V3. I love the style and design of the shoes.

My daughter is in love with these shoes. When she saw the color we yelled a little and she said it was her favorite color. In fact, her favorite color is pink, but she loves lemon and purple. So definitely New Balance quality and I've been wearing New Balance shoes for many years, as has my husband. This is my daughter's first encounter with NB shoes. They're very comfortable, she says. For some reason, she's particularly concerned about the protector on the underside. My daughter has a foot…

I firmly believe in buying good shoes for your children. I've never been like this before, but my kids had constant joint problems and eventually we found out that one kid had juvenile arthritis and the other had hypermobility. . . Both were made worse by the cheaper shoes we bought. I have another daughter who gets shoe burns - she is very athletic and walks about 6 miles a day so she changes a pair of shoes about every 3 months. I quickly realized that buying more expensive shoes would cost…

These shoes were good. She could walk in it. We were happy with the quality. These shoes are very good. You were cute for my kid. They thought they were comfortable. The fit was fine. You could use it in different situations. They were easy to put on and take off. The quality seems to be ok. They looked good on her. she liked them. The price was ok. I would recommend them.

I'll be honest: I've always been one of those moms who hated spending a lot of money on a pair of baby shoes because they could very well outgrow them in a month. However, over the years there have been instances where I have made exceptions. Many of these exceptions were New Balance shoes. Whether shoes for children or adults, NB makes good and comfortable shoes. It has a lightweight gray nylon upper that is definitely breathable and dries quickly when needed. The outsole consists of…

Fantastic shoes! Very comfortable and light - my daughter loves wearing them and these are her favorite shoes. It is ideal for school, playground games and everyday use. It's quite breathable and the color and design are nice too. There is good arch support and a fairly thick insole for cushioning. Has all the qualities I expect from New Balance.

Who doesn't love New Balance? They fit perfectly, look fantastic and are even more comfortable to play with. They go well with whatever outfit he chooses and I know they will last him until he is ready to choose the right size. Highly recommended!

As another mom noted, they hold the butt perfectly. My son says they are very comfortable and we have used them for evening outings.

i love purple Really cute and comfy. True to size for the most part, but slightly narrower than our other brands of children's shoes. Maybe a wide one would be better.

I thought it was velcro. They fit well but my son has special needs and can't tie his laces yet. I think we will keep training. My son is very thin but needs wide shoes. New Balance is the only brand that fits.

I had a very hard time finding new athletic shoes for my 4 year old. Top sizes for toddlers are hard to find and very expensive. I ordered this pair and a pair of shoes from another brand for my daughter to choose from and she chose them. It's not my favorite style but they're quite nice for the price and should be comfortable if she decides to wear them. She's never had wide shoes, but they don't feel wide or fall off the heel, even if they have enough room to grow into them. My daughter is…

These New Balance children's shoes are great for sports, but not for hiking and the like. They fit my daughter as expected. She says they're comfortable and "make them run faster." They have thin material on the toes which I didn't like because she likes to tug on her toes. This quickly ruins the toes of her shoes, which is why the thin material did before. Other than that, it's a great choice. Comfortable. Inexpensive. And sweet!

These are great running shoes. The colors are bright and draw attention. My granddaughter loves these. They also have a soft insole and a bright yellow sole. Super fun and well done.

Luckily they were available for 4 1/2 girls which size is hard to come by. The granddaughter was very happy with the fit and excellent comfort of this brand.

My daughter was so excited when she saw the shoes today. She likes the color, purple is her favorite. The fit of the shoe was perfect compared to other shoes. She said they were very comfortable and looked great. The quality is amazing and exactly what I expected from the new Balance.

The size is right. My son likes them. Not many cushions (kids shoes don't usually have many as they don't last as long as adult shoes). Too mesh shoes / thin, did not know. Suitable for summer option for hiking some creeks as not waterproof but breathable can't have both lol

These are really good shoes. They are very light, very well made and very comfortable according to my son. They have a nice, sleek look - they're not bulky or weird.

These shoes fit great, he is about 6.5 years old and we know he will be a talkative kid with big feet based on genetics. He wore them all over his garden and said they feel good, which I think he means they feel good. The gray is perfect for school and matches his uniform color desires. This is a quality product, I have had New Balance sneakers for many years.

First, this purple is an amazingly bright purple. My daughter loves the look of this shoe. These shoes are very light and have a nice curve/shape that makes walking easier. The insole is also very thin and light and hardly absorbs any odor, which I really like. The laces are the perfect size for little fingers to tie. This is a great pair of running shoes for a child.

We love New Balance for our feet. I especially love these for my kids as I know they don't want to put their developing feet in cheap shoes. They have a nice foam cushion which makes them very comfortable for my (almost) 7 year old feet. The lace holes are great and strong, we've had a pair of kids boots with uncomfortable straps that don't last long, they're perfect. My kid thinks these shoes are pretty cool too. He is very happy with them and I am thankful for a quality shoe that will last my
