I bought these Reefs for my 22 mo. old and unfortunately regret it!  First, I like the velcro closure across the top but the back strap is too loose and strappy where it keeps falling down. My son has fallen numerous times wearing them whereas in his other shoes, doesn't seem to catch the front of the shoe on the sidewalk. Maybe he'll grow into them a little better but I'm too gunshy on putting them on him again since them make him trip all the time!  If I could, I would send them back. Definitely not worth the $$ I'm sorry to say.
