My daughter had been begging for these. I bought them for her 5th birthday, and she was thrilled. Three weeks later, the lights went out on the left shoe(except the flower on the side of the shoe, which burns like a laser without turning off). The vendor was very helpful and is sending a return merchandise authorization and said they would refund or replace the shoe. Unfortunately, I then started reading the reviews on the shoe and found that there are 8 one-star ratings to every 2 five-star ratings. Complaints the lights go out, the fabric separates from the toe cap in a month's time, the decals practically wipe off. Skechers is practically the most expensive shoe in its category, I would expect them to be well made and to last forever. Thanks, Skechers, for ruining my daughter's favorite birthday present!
