We ordered two of this same shoe-one for each of my boys. Shoes were used for school and for running at PE only. Withing 6 weeks of having this shoe the netting on the shoe (top all over) started coming apart. I ended up the other day having to cut off with scissors where the netted fabric was hanging off and eventually bought him a pair or Nike's elsewhere. He runs about 15 miles a week in PE at school in 5th grade. I was very disappointed. The other pair for my 6th grader who uses them for the same thing, are holding up ok. I expected better oout of Saucony. Not sure we'll buy again.
