I purchased these shoes for my 12yr old daughter, she loves them!! They are cute(the colors aren't QUITE as vibrant as the photo shows), functional, and she will actually wear them(she is at "that age"-those of you with girls know what I mean ;-)). They were at a good price point and my drs recommended reebok for me(autoimmune/neuropathy/pain issues), so they are definitely quality shoes for good podiatry/body support-which is good for everyone not just after the problems develop(I've always been a firm believer in "good shoes"-even though I own a closet full of 5+" heels, my comfortable/supportive shoes need to be just that).

My daughter is an active girl, she plays softball and participates in danceline(drill team for those up north) as well as just the normal running around/walking that comes with being 12 and living on 111ac, the shoes work well for all activities.
