This one I am rating based on two things: one, they are super, super cute and two, they seem to be structurally sound. I love the old school Mickey and Minnie Mouse on these (One of them is on each flip flop). However, my son absolutely hates them at this point. We've probably done about a quarter of a mile walking with them on his feet, but because this is the first pair of flip flops he's owned without an elastic strap across the heel, and he struggles with motor and muscle control related issues, he's having a much harder time keeping them on his feet because of it. I actually wanted to whoop when we made it a full 30 feet without one of them coming off of his feet. That however, is not a problem with the flip flops...I think the only reason he doesn't like them is they are hard for him to keep on right now when he walks, but I think he will like them better as his motor control of them improves. Because when given a choice of this and the other new pair of shoes I got him for the first time, he actually picked these, so I think he preferred them...until he found out he was going to have to work harder to walk in them.
