Love these shoes; we have bought them two summers in a row and they would last through at least another kid. My LO has wide feet so she doesn't get too many pairs. She wears them almost every day. My only complaint is that they are not designed to be wet, dispite being labeled a water shoe. The shoes and my kid's feet stink like a high school locker room when they get wet. I have to dribble white vinegar into them until the sole soaks it up and let them dry out for the terrible smell to go away. We Are not excessively hard on these shoes; she doesn't wear them in standing water but she has ran through a puddle, got splashed osoulled from a cup of water onto her feet.
