I noticed my daughter's PE grade was dropping. When I asked her why she blamed her gym shoes. She said they weren't comfortable and she couldn't run fast enough to make the minimum mile time. Never fear - Amazon is here!I searched through a lot of shoes looking for the perfect pair. These came up in my search - the price was perfect, and the shoe seemed to be what she needed.The only hiccup was that I ordered a size 5 and I was shipped a size 1. Amazon gets extra credit for quickly fixing this and shipping me out a pair of size 5s in time for Christmas - because I am THAT mom who would put running shoes under the Christmas tree.The good news is that her running time has improved and her grade is back up. The shoes are comfortable and fit well. She says they make it easier to run since they move with her feet. The fact that they are the perfect shades of pink doesn't hurt. Overall a great purchase and product for the price
