adidasUnisex-Child Swift Essential Sneaker

My son is extremely (EXTREMELY) picky about what he will allow on his body, haha. Everything he wears has to pass a very strict test of comfort and function. He couldn't care less about how what he wears looks (even though I do)! We are now on our 3rd pair of these exact shoe. Every time he outgrows one pair, I have the next size up in this shoe already purchased and sitting in his closet! Just today we moved up to a new size. It is the first shoe brand and style that checks all of our boxes:* COMFORT* Slip on and off - laces not actually necessary unless you want them tighter. With his last pair we removed the laces completely and he preferred to wear them without! They worked just as well and looked just fine!* DURABLE - This boy wears through clothes and shoes like nobodies business. Up until we found these shoes, we couldn't make a single pair last more than a few months before they had holes in the fabric or the rubber was coming apart. This is the first shoe we found that lasted all the way until he needed the next size. HALLALUJAH!* VERSATILE - These are the only shoes my son wears, and fortunately they're neutral looking enough to go with all his clothes. We even wear the to church. While I'd love for him to wear cute boy dress shoes to church, I'm just grateful I can get him to go at all, so who cares if he wears his adidas!?I am SO glad we found this shoe and I hope they keep making it for years to come as they require no break in and do everything we need them to do! Are they expensive? Yes. But to me they're worth every penny because they actually last where other cheaper shoes don't.I sincerely hope this review has been helpful to someone else! And yes, I pay full price for them. Feel free to ask any questions!

I always buy my child Adidas or Pumas (and have only strayed to a Merrill tennis shoe once). These grey Adidas didn’t quite have the look I anticipated. Although they might be great for someone else. I have always been EXTREMELY satisfied w/Adidas quality however. This instance was just an aesthetic thing as this grey pair had a different shape around the toe and was not particularly flattering with the school uniform.

I bought this for my 9 year old to train and run a 5K. She loves the shoes and says they are comfortable. They are true to size. I bought her half a size larger since she’s using them as a running shoe and I want them to last more than one season. Great little running shoe.

Other than the insoles not being glued or sewn down into the inside of the shoe which makes them slip out and roll up when my kid puts them on, he really loves them. He likes being able to just slip his feet in and out without having to tie or untie them. If the insoles were they way they should be, I'd give it 4 stars but it does create an issue with the slipping in and out which the reason I got him these :/

We love these shoes. They’re super cute. However, they are difficult for my daughter (age 9) to put in her feet. You need an old school shoe horn and they would probably work.

Comfortable, fit as expected and go on my 3yo feets very easily

Happy :)

Very comfy and easy to put on; two very important things for kids. Would definitely buy again.
