I love Stride Rite shoes for my kids, they hold up so well usually.
These looked great (although I did have to air them our as a previous reviewer mentioned because of a strong smell) and my son wore them to camp for 5 days. After 5 days they looked like he had been wearing them for a year they looked so worn out. The stitching wasn't tight on the velcro and flaps underneath and the leather on the toe was getting frayed on the edges. The last pair he had (stride rite extinction) lasted all summer, fall and winter and when the dog chewed one up this spring they still looked really nice. My 7 year old is very active and wore them often. I am returning these and trying a different style.
