text: It is a good shoe for running around. Like the color and style & grip.<br />But, 3 stars because<br />-velcro is coming off :(<br />- besides velcro, the edges on the top side seem to be 'opening up'/tearing so we need to retire it sooner than we thought. Def not passing it on to another kid. My son didn't even wear this THAT regularly & yet. He also plays mostly on turf surface & his school palyground has the soft rubber material.
