2nd pair this school year...

My 6 year old is required to wear these Mary Janes on chapel days at school which is once a week; however, she wants to wear them every day. With daily use and wear on the school playground of course they are wearing out faster. Because my little girl likes wearing these so much, I went through 3 pairs of these last school year!! This pair will be the 2nd for the current school year. I need to figure out how to make these last longer (I know they would if she only wore them once a week), but she's young and wears them daily, so lots of wear and tear seems to be inevitable.... They are very comfortable for her to wear once broken in.

Best school shoe ever

Best school shoe ever. This is the second pair. The first one lasted two school years but don't fit her anymore so gave them to another child and got this pair. Update. 4.5 and 5 are exactly the same shoe. See pictures. Still best shoe ever just watch for size.

Comfy and loved

These shoes need shined, as they are real leather. But our daughter loves the shoes and wears them all the time! The last pair we ordered a little big, but they lasted about a year and a half. She finally scuffed up the front top when playing and we decided to order the same pair again! Kudos to Stride Rite for making shoes that hold up to kids.

The best shoes ever

The best shoes ever. I had first purchased ones that I thought would be good, just a little cheaper - after 1 week they fell apart. I replaced them with these and they not only lasted the entire school year, but a little polish and they look almost like new. I ordered a new pair for this school year. They are the best and well worth the few extra dollars.

Very comfortable - perfect for school uniform even during PE

Very comfortable shoes and perfect for school uniform. The color will fade in front if teared by the harsh use of kids during recess, but using a navy blue shoe polish will save it easily, as it did for us. My daughter tried different brands and they didn't last longer that this one and were much less comfortable. She always complained on other shoes about the top front that was too tied and she loves these shoes. She even told me that she can run "super fast" with them...

Perfect shoes for school -- stylish, sturdy, and comfortable

As usual, Stride Rite provides an excellent quality shoe, but Amazon provided an even better price! I paid less than $15 for these shoes. These shoes are high quality leather mary-janes with a rubber sole. I purchased them as uniform shoes for school, and they did not disappoint. They have a thick rubber sole to provide comfort and stability, and a supple leather upper to withstand everyday use and roughness to the shoe. The inside has a soft, cushiony lining. I expect these shoes to last through the school year and still be in great shape for my younger child to use as a hand-me down.

Rugged, Durable Girls shoe

These are not as durable as the Sketchers mary janes, but it was the best I could find for my daughter at the time. The leather starts to show wear early, but they hold together well. The soles are better than Sketchers, so that part has lasted the longest....at least until she grew out of them. That is saying a lot, since this kid really tears up shoes by climbing trees and running with the dogs in the mud.....not a girlie-girls, this one!

Stride Rite doesn’t disappoint!

Stride rite does not disappoint. This is the second year I purchase these rugged yet adorable shoes for my 6 year old. They allow for running/jumping as well as matching her uniform jumper. Do not be dissuaded by other reviewers about the color fading. These are genuine leather shoes. Good leather shoes need a shoe polish every now and again. My daughters shoes became faded and such, too. With a bit of navy shoe polish they look as good as new... but already comfortable and shaped to her tootsie.

Quality Mary Jane

These are great Mary Janes for school. Very nice, quality leather that holds upwell over the course of a year though the shoes take a beating. Bought two pairs this time so she can just go from one pair the next. I particuarly like that the shoes have good support and a solid sole. Can't get a better school shoe. Update: Just got two more pairs. She's going to age out of these at Size 5 :(. We will miss them.

I have bought this model for 6 years in a row

I have been buying this brand and model for my daughter since she was 7 and know She's 12 . This is very wel made pair of shoes and man they are resistant !! I have change them only because her feet grows every year but she barely scratches them after a whole school year . I am very pleased with the brand and model , it's a shame that she has grown up and this brand is only for kids
