The shoe looks fantastic; however, the velcro strap provides a poor fit. Also, the braided raffia did not appear to to be sturdy enough for a child's shoe.

I bought these shorts thinking I might be able to get away with them as gym shorts, but you definitely cannot leave the house in these. The rise in these shorts is extremely low, so it will definitely call attention to your front and back. I would guess New Balance partnered with Aussie Bum or Andrew Christian on these if you get my drift. They are great for around the house and post-workout.
