I tend to put my daughter in brands comparable to my own because she is picky like myself. Having been a victim of heel/foot issues in the past, our local running company had reviewed my gait and recommended Saucony's. I found them to be more supportive than most athletic shoes. Having already returned Keen's and Merrell's, I felt we'd see if my 4 year old would like hers as much as I do - she does. They run true to size. Also, they've seemed to hold up very well for our active and wet (read snowy) lifestyle. This has been a complaint of mine in the past for Puma's for little kids, they're much too thin and fall apart. You can't tell these are 3 months old. Perhaps most importantly she loves them because there is no missing the cute pink-white; also easy to independently put on with velcro straps. My picky preschooler and I would both highly recommend these.

My 5 year old daughter loves these tennis shoes to wear with her school uniform. I love that they have held up so well! I was afraid that they would look like shoes for boys but not at all - they are very cute and perfect for all the running and playing at PE and recess.

Shoe is made well with good support and strong Velcro. My daughter said they are very comfortable and she wants to wear them everyday. As her foot grows, I keep getting the same shoe a size larger. She won't wear other athletic shoes now.

Great shoe! Can't go wrong with Saucony. I get wide width for both my kids...2 and 4 years old and every show I get fits perfect and lasts!

My 7 year old daughter loves these shoes. They are quick to put on and provide good traction and stability. She wears them to school and they are good for running too.
