My son has worn these shoes for over a year now and they still look great.  The are very comfortable and light weight.  They are also easy to get on and off, since he is 2.5 he wants to do everything himself and these shoes are perfect.  They are worth the money because they will last.  I have also purchased other pediped and pediped flex and they have all been wonderful shoes, I highly recommend.
I loved these so much that I bought them again for my younger son and he loves them as well.
