These were about twice what I would spend on a sneaker and I was expecting them to be good quality. My daughter loves them but they are falling apart before she has even outgrown them. The glitter area is chipping. One of the elastic laces has broken. The soles are coming away in front. Also the tongue has always slipped over to the side.My kid loved this shoe and wore it all the time. Mine held up to the wear and tear very well. It was comfortable, even for a high top which I thought might bother her around the top of her ankles, but she wore it until she outgrew it.
