text: This is actually our second pair of these shoes.  My 2 yr. old can put them on by himself and will wear them all day - even in the car when he is sitting for a longer period of time and has the opportunity to take them off.  This is the first sneaker he has left on for an extended period of time.  They also look great and hold up really well.  We needed a new pair because he grew out of the first pair - not because of any issues with quality.  Will buy again!
