Please do NOT waste your money on these shoes, even if you have money to burn!!! My son has 2 other pairs of sneakers that he prefers to wear so he hardly ever wears these (only when we make them cuz we like the way they look). They started to fall apart only within the first few months of him wearing them only a few times per month.  They are also big on him (which is how we bought them), so he's in no way growing out of them. Worst money I've ever spent on a pair of shoes, ever! I've bought shoes that last twice as long from walmart, meijer, and target for way less money. Please spend your money wisely, they may look good, but they don't last!!!!
