I bought these boots for my 3 year old son.  I love the deep brown (chocolate) color.  It looks nice and hides dirt and other minor stains most 3 year olds get on their shoes.  The boots stay on my sons feet well when he is running around having fun (this was a problem with other boots he has had).  The quality of the boots is good.  They have not worn out despite my son's active nature and should survive in good condition to be used by my daughter later.
