“Great shoe for my 6yr old daughter to use alongside a more supportive pair of road/play trainers from asics. These give her feet lots of room to spread, and encourage confident off-road running, which she really wanted but had been struggling with in other footwear. The grip is excellent, and they double up perfectly as a mountain bike trainer with that wide stable foot-print. The one lost star is because with the current political and social situation in China, I really prefer to know where products are made BEFORE purchase but this wasn't advertised. The adult Altra's I bought are made in Vietnam, but these are China, which is a shame.”
