Plenty of comfort and lots of support on top of a great-looking shoe. What more could you – or your kids – ask for in a running shoe? The New Balance 455v2 kids' running shoe is a must-have that is equally fit for school, sports practice, playground shenanigans and any other mischief kids can get into. These running shoes for kids are designed to withstand long days of activities, so your little one will love them almost as much as you do. Complete with IMEVA midsole cushioning for premium comfort and rebound, along with a synthetic/mesh upper for top-quality breathability, these New Balance shoes also feature a super-cool design with bright, bold coloring that future trendsetters will want to show off to their friends. As a final finishing touch, the no-sew tip and strong rubber outsole combine to add plenty of durability and traction, which will come in handy during outdoor fun.

Defected
I have trouble finding wide shoes to fit my son I’ve ordered 3 pairs now and these have a factory issue where the shoe laces are. As you can see in one photo there is 3 and the other photo there is 4. My son already put them on they fit but I’m a little disappointed to pay that much with a defect for a 2year olds shoe. :)

Defected pair..
Dear Amazon and New Balance you sent us a defected shoe!!!My son loves these New Balance kids shoes. They fit perfectly and are very comfortable and we love that it comes in a wide option.HOWEVER the shoe came with one foot having a shorter strap across? This is a second pair we have ordered so we KNOW it is a default in the product— one shoe is normal one shoe is defected? I’m really really upset about it specially because the order took a month to get to us. We placed it on the 12th of April and revived it on the 10th of May !! AND I already returned the 1st version I bought because the size was too small.. so my son had already waited two months for these shoes (which he loves and was so excited to finally receive) I did not have the heart to return/replace the item.These shoes are great and I highly recommend them I just wish we did not have the bad luck of receiving a defected pair.

Back heal too high
The back heal lip at the top of the shoe runs high and is made of not very flexible material that ends up pushing into heal.

Perfect fit!
I bought these for my six-year-old daughter. I purchased a 1 1/2 WIDE because other Velcro type shoes don't always fasten how we would like. Getting the wide made all the difference allowing for the Velcro to fasten correctly. She loves them and says they are very comfortable. I purchased the black and purple which won't show dirt as easily.

Run small and tight
Very snug fitting shoes. They fit smaller than expected lengthwise as well. I ordered half a size larger than her current shoes and they're smaller than all of the different brands we have. Only the tip of the velcro strap can fasten, my 2.5yr old complained every time I tried to put these shoes on her. Disappointing to say the least due to the price and they're so darn adorable but my kids demolished the box they came in so that's that.

Perfect shoes for beginner walkers!
My 1 yo is usually whatever as far as wearing shoes. She will take them off and throw them, take them off and chew on them, etc. But always take them off after we put them on. Before this pair we used under armor tennis shoes and as soon as I would latch the velcro she would bend down and rip it back off. With these shoes (the new balance) she keeps them on. There's no issues with her pulling on the velcro and trying to take them off. She loves these shoes. She will go get them and bring them to put them on. They are also super cute. Great shoes for trying to start regular shoe wearing for walking.

Cute!
Very cute look like the pictures. Nice quality. Got them on cyber Monday for a great deal. I’m satisfied for my daughters new shoes. I always machine wash new balance and they are fine if left out to dry. I have a pair for myself similar style in black (adult size obviously) and I love them.

Size up
My girl wears a 6 1/2 extra wide almost 7 extra wide in Stride Rite and the 7.5 wide worked for her perfect. There is a small amount of toe room for growth but not too much but I almost think if I would have went with a 8 wide they might have been a little too big and uncomfortable to walk in so, ultimately I'm happy with the size I went with she said they were comfortable right away and they were easy to put on.Update to add we now are in a size 8 wide and very happy with these shoes will be continue to buy more as she grows.

Nice kicks
Nice to have a velcro option shoe for larger then size 3! Also love the velcro loops thru so my son can pull the shoe tighter if he needs, and that it does not flop around on the top like some velcro shoes.

Great for wide feet!
It's hard to find shoes for my son who has a very wide foot. I had to buy extra wide (XW)in striderite shoes and they are expensive and XW is hard to find. These were more affordable and fit his wide feet.

Great Quailty.. Fits half size to small
I had to reorder a half size bigger. This shoe I did find fit a bit smaller. Still awesome quailty for the price

Good quality, check the measurements before ordering
Great shoe overall. The sizing was too small unfortunately. The wide option didn't seem much better than a regular shoe.
