These sneakers for my son are perfect. He's a tall child with yes long wide feet. These look more expensive than what I PAID. They got here fast and he's been wearing them everyday -even in rain and they are still great looking. I think these will last past the school year and maybe the summer. His first sneakers were of a more popular brandname and fell a part in a few months I was so upset. These sneaks are very sturdy. Great buy
