We used to buy the more expensive k brand of sandals. But with kiddo outgrowing the sandals in a year, I was looking for a close-toed sandal with similar support for his feet, that could work great for water use and varied activities (water play, cycling, hiking), and is more cost effective. I waited for prime day and swooped a few of these pairs in different sizes. What a great deal and most importantly, kiddo loves wearing them!This is by far my favorite style of shoe for my boys each summer. We've bought previously from Carters, Walmart and Target as well as this style this summer. I'll start by saying they are very hard on their shoes and clothes - I only expect one season out of these shoes for sure. But this brand did rub on my 2 year old's heel and cause a blister depending on how they were secured, something previous ones did not do. They probably came in around the same quality and durability as the Walmart shoe but below Target. I'll definitely buy again in the future if Target doesn't have them in their summer line up again!Like that very light and durable. My nephew is very rough on his shoes, this sandals are still holding after a long vacation in Sahara, playing in the ocean, hiking in the mountains.Nice bright color and well worth the money.No dislikes.These are good for everyday use for my daughter and school even with water but when they arrived they had an unpleasant smell to them I have even tried to wash and soak them and the smell still stays with them. Not sure if the material of them but only thing I do not like about them.These are kinda kool. Like the design and material for them. Fit good, but my daughter grew out of really quick. Don’t wear out on a farm though. With the back open, we had a problem with bugs and ants getting her feet. But that is just the area we liveNice and durable shoes but runs smallI ordered a size up so my child could grow into them. She has plenty of room to grow and can still walk great in them because if how the back strap tightens up. I really love these shoes and so does she.These shoes have held up so well for our kiddo! She's worn them to the beach, had bathroom accidents, and everything in between - and after every wash they look good as new!I do wash them with a hose, not with the washing machine, but still, they're great shoes.She loves them, and they're easy to put on.My autistic daughter is very difficult to please as she finds most items of clothing and footwear unbearably uncomfortable, but she absolutely loves these. They've been worn for both PE and on the beach, including in the sea. Highly recommend.I know they aren't trainers but my daughter loves hers and walks through all sorts in them. Rinse off n clean again. Fit as it says.Great value. Look really lovely. Perfect for summer. Did start to smell at the end of summer so popped in washing machine and came up great.Most comfortable shoes I've ever had. Ideal for the heat. Covered toes for safety and adjustable heal strap.My 6 year old got sores on her foot after one use. They also took longer to dry than expected. Will be asking to return
