The style of the shoe is fine and the length is fine, but these shoes are ridiculously narrow.  After reading the reviews, I ordered the wide width for my daughter who has normal width feet. When we tried them on, the strap would barely close and she cried and said they were too tight. I've never had problems with any shoes being too narrow for her, so I was really surprised by these shoes.  Extremely narrow and I would not recommended unless your child has VERY narrow feet.
