Seems very well made so far, genuine suede, clean embroidery and stitching. They *might* be a tad narrow as I recall another review mentioning before I bought them, but my daughter has fairly slim feet. No complaints about discomfort. She's worn them to school etc.Most notably I got them for a GREAT price and they look like money and can be dressed up or down. Almost don't want to review them so I can keep my secret 😆
These shoes were for my niece and she absolutely loved them! We got them in Pink Nubuck and they looked exactly as shown in the pictures. As one of the reviewers described, these shoes are good for all activities.I was a little concerned about them being too narrow and got them in a 4 Little Kid and 4.5 Little Kid. The 4.5 were way too big, so returned those. However, the 4 fit perfectly. It turns out these are officially called 4 M Little Kid, it that helps some of you trying to figure out if these would be too narrow. I would definitely suggest using the sizing chart and measuring your child's foot while they are standing, and you should be good to go.
This is a review of: MARC JOSEPH NEW YORK Unisex-Child Leather Ankle Boot Embroidered Star Detail LoaferI ordered these for my granddaughter, Abbey. Unfortunately, they are too large for her, so I cannot evaluate Comfort. Though I cannot be certain, I am nonetheless giving Warmth 4 Stars because of the quality of the leather and inside lining. She and I both are disappointed because these are really good looking ankle boots. The detailed stitching goes throughout the boot. The leather is high quality and is soft and supple. The embroidered Stars on the outside side of each boot are well done with no loose threads and add to the high quality of the product. The shoelaces are more for show, but the zipper allows for easy on and off the foot. The inside of the boot is soft and would be comfortable. I think they are adorable. I could not find a size chart that gave actual measurements, but Size 1 boots are 8 1/2” x 3”. Abbey said she can’t wait until she can wear them. This review was written by LynKin.
This shoe would be perfect if the toe box was more ergonomic and better fitted to the shape of a child's foot. The toe box is too narrow, too pointy to comfortably house a normal shaped foot without squishing the toes together. This is really not a healthy option for a child's growing foot if you want it to develop normally. This was way too narrow and constrictive in the toe box, even for a child that has a fairly narrow foot. What is the designer thinking? The leather is supple, the shoe has great flexibility if only the toe box was wider and rounder. It just had to be returned.
Awesome shoes - very light, great quality, nice design and super cute stars that my boy likes. But they probably would be a little tight on a wider foot.
These shoes are excellent quality. Durable strong sales and sleek leather upper. The fit is true to size
The shoes appeared to be constructed well, but were too narrow. I read several reviews saying that they were too small so I ordered a half size up, but they were still too narrow. Nice shoes though.
Shoes are exactly as I would expect . My 8 year old loves them!
