These shoes are great. My 2 y.o. was mad when he grew out of these. He loves these shoes. I ordered them again in the next 2 sizes. I love how lightweight they are. My son is a runner so these are perfect. They go with every outfit he has. I will order them until he is out of the toddler sizes.

Great Shoe!!

My husband and I are very critical of our son's footwear. Support of the natural dimensions and functionality of the human foot are very important to us. If we put a pair of shoes on our 3 year old and he whines about them or begins to heel strike while walking or running, we don't buy it.
This is our second purchase of the Saucony Blaze. We bought the next half size up soon after purchasing the first pair. Reasons why we love this shoe: 1) The sizing fits the way you expect. (ie Stride Rite's sizing chart), 2. Available in wide sizes for our son's wide foot. 3.The shoe has a very flexible sole, which helps prevent heel strike. 4.They're also lightweight, and breathable.
What could be improved: the toe box could be more uniform in width. It begins wide, but tapers slightly. This has an effect of pushing the great toe toward the other toes, an unnatural phenomena that sets people up for bunions if they continually wear shoes that do this. Fix the toe box and this is a near-perfect shoe.

Love this shoe!

I absolutely LOVE this shoe! It's perfect for my son. I purchased it when he was 19 months old. It's lightweight, breathable, and stylish. I cannot say enough good things about this shoe. I'm actually going to purchase another pair today (which is why I'm on here), in this exact shoe, just a bigger size as he is now 22 months and have outgrown the original shoe. I definitely would recommend this shoe!

I only buy Saucony sneakers for my son. They last a long time; he is very comfortable in them; they clean easily. For this purchase, I had no other option but to buy them online without having him try them on. They are not available as easily as other brands in stores.(I visited four stores in my area!) Or, they are available in off-sizes. Luckily, I was able to find the ones we liked online, and my son has been wearing them and loves them.

Awesome shoes for my Awesome boy!!

These were my son's first real pair of shoes once he started walking. They are so light weight, probably the lightest I have found. He has a thick foot so we bought the wide width and they go on perfectly. I am actually on the site today to order yet another pair since he has just about out grown them. They are not available at the stores any more so I suggest you go ahead and get them while they last. I am planning on buying the next two sizes.

I bought these for my 20 month old son and absolutely love them! They look great and are very durable. They are lightweight and easy to put on. My son loves them too! I would highly recommend these and plan on purchasing another pair when my son outgrows his current pair.
