These are great classic sandals for active kids. They hold up well and I feel like they're safer than flip flops which seem to be a tumble waiting to happen. This is the third pair of Hurricanes Ive bought for my toddler; he gets a new pair each spring and wears them out over the summer. I usually just continually check on the listing until I see one go on sale and purchase that. Not too picky on the colors, weve had blue, and green, and this year got black/red... they're subtle patterns and go with everything. I included a picture so you can see how the color isn't super bright. Little dudes got on green shorts, a blue shirt, and the red/black sandals. And they look fine. My only complaint is that they STINK when your kids feet sweat! However, we just throw them in the wash and let them dry in the sun.
