Cute shoe but it began tearing up about 3 weeks after purchase. My 2 year old didn't wear it daily-maybe only twice a week but it began tearing in the instep area and the stitching along the toe began to unravel. Maybe it will be more durable on another child. Overall I will give it a 3 only because it started tearing up.

I bought these for my pre-schooler this fall. My son gets many compliments on the look of the shoe...his are black with a neon yellow? However, I agree with the previous posts. At first I thought they looked stylish; however, the fabric on the top of the foot is not sturdy and feels just a bit thicker than a Clorox wipe. My son's shoes have ripped at the toe box and pretty soon his toes will be poking through. My son also complains that they don't fit securely and is always asking me to pull the velcro tighter. We will not be purchasing Nike again, nor velcro.

These shoes are awful. My 23 month old son has had them for 4 weeks and there is already a whole on in the shoe. These are not even his primary pair of shoes. Also, as mentioned earlier, they look a little cheap with the Nike logo not sewn on.

First let me say the shoes look awesome. That's the good part. The bad is they are not made to last. Within 2 weeks holes started to appear on both shoes around the toe area. After 2 more weeks, the holes were holes were huge and the nylon mesh was completely separated from the toe leather. Not what I expected from Nike. Not a kid friendly shoe. Thanks to Zappos for their awesome customer service.

Initially these looked liked a nice pair of shoes at a reasonable price. The color combo was different and cool which is why we bought them. The printed Nike emblem rather than the sewn one gives it such a cheap look that wasn't as apparent until I got them home from the store. My soon enjoyed having them on, however, they have little to no structure or support that I was worried about my son tripping/rolling his ankle. The soles have squished down already and they show wear so easily. Most of his past shoes have been able to be consigned or handed down by the time he was ready for a new size but these are going in the trash and I will never buy Nike shoes again.

This is the cheapest-looking pair of shoes I have ever seen! There is no way I would have looked at this shoe twice if I had seen it in a store! It is nothing but plastic painted over cloth...very tacky and very cheap. I have always bought Nike tennis shoes for my little boy, but these are going back!

I was shocked when I first saw these shoes in person. I expected to be buying a nice, supportive, leather shoe from Nike. I was so disappointed! These shoes are a cheap mesh fabric with basically a sticker made to look like leather simply attached to a sole of a shoe. No support whatsoever! I do not recommend this shoe for the money! I will be returning these.
