New Balance KV624 comfortable but cheaply made

Reviewer: KG from Cary, NC
THese shoes are just OK. I purchased them because my sons need uniform shoes and the options were slim. i have worn New Balance athletic shoes before with no problem at all. Therefore I felt they would be a smart purchase for my sons. They found the shoes to be comfortable but could not stand up to my 8yr old. The threads were always hanging and the velcor straps had to be reglued. the front of the shoe where the toe is had started to peel apart. My 11 yr old did not experience any defects at all? I have since reordered these same schools to be worn for the next 5 months. I am assuming that the first pair was defected?

Bought these for my son as his other shoes fell apart. They are all leather, which is hard to find in his size, and appear to be pretty comfortable for him. Would have been nice if they looked more like a tennis shoe, but the price was right.

I purchased a pair of these shoes for each my two boys 10 & 6. They destroy cheap $15-type shoes from the big-box stores in a matter of a few months. Their last pairs of shoes were the KX623 model but since those became difficult to find, I tried buying the KX624. So far so good. Fit and quality appear similar. Construction is noticeably different in the toe area, but I don't see any problems with it yet. My kids say that the shoes are comfortable. No complaints wearing them full days at school, after-school activities, running around at home, or long walks with the dogs.
