It's a light weight running shoes, the top open 2-side velcro design make it very easy for little kids to put the shoes on and off. My only complain is the " Wide" is not much wider than the "Median". My son has wide feet, who had to to tolerate the tightness against the toes area when he tried on the new shoes with "Wide" label. Can the manufacture give the kids with wide feet a real design to satisfy their need, not a patch on regular size instead?
