This is the second pair I have bought for my 6 year old.  I only had to get a second pair because we like them so much!  They lasted a whole summer of camp and are not falling apart a bit.  They also still look good after several months of everyday wear.  I wish Skechers would make more athletic slip on styles! Update: Third pair! My now 7 year old still loves them and was sooo excited for a new pair!
