Poor shoe quality and poorer customer service
As my son was starting Kindergarten, I was happy to purchase him some light shoes. He chose these as his favorite color is red.The shoe fits as it should, it's hard to keep it on my kid because he has skinny feet and the Velcro only gets so tight. This happens on all shoes that aren't laced up.When they arrived, I was happy to see they had an on/off button. This would be great so he could turn them off at school and also help save the batteries.After approx. 3 weeks of wearing these just to school, my son showed me a few lights on the left shoe had gone out. As most of them still worked, I told him not to worry about it as it was bound to happen.After about 6 weeks of wearing them, I noticed that only one shoe was lighting up. I told him to turn them both on and he said they were already both on. I hit the button and nothing. They usually flash a few times to let you know they're on. The lights had all gone out! Only 6 weeks of regular kid wear (no regular sports or extreme conditions) and one shoe was now lightless. I expected the lights to stop working eventually but not so soon.The right shoe works fine and all the little lights still light up.I emailed Sketchers asking what I could to do fix this problem. Three weeks later I got an email apologizing for the delay but they had a lot of customer queries and they were behind. That was over a month ago and I still haven't heard a thing.Last week my son told me there was a hole in the bottom of his shoe. Well my 6yr old tends to exaggerate and I thought maybe there was a deep dent. Nope, it was a hole. The rubber sole had already worn through and the plastic framework type structure that the lights appeared to be in was open. both shoes had this problem. My son is of average height and weight and doesn't do anything that would cause unusual wear on these shoes.So it's barely three months after I purchased these shoes, one no longer lights up and they both have holes in the bottom. For the same price I paid, I could have purchased some Nike or Adidas or another name brand that has quality behind it. (I did think Sketchers were quality before I purchased these)I would definitely not purchase these for my kids at full retail price, perhaps half price. Your buying the lights and the don't last very long, the quality of the shoe is poor.

Surprising Results!
Okay, they're shoes right? All kids wear shoes, especially sneakers. These, I thought, were a bit pricey; now, I believe, I definitely got my money's worth. I bought a red pair and a green pair for my twin, 5 year old, grandsons who saw the commercial on TV and begged Grandma for them. I can still hear the high pitched squeals as they saw and opened the boxes. They couldn't get the packing out fast enough for them to put on -- and then they found the switch to "turn on" the plentiful, bright colored lights. Then the search was on to find a dark room in the house so they could watch their feet glow. This, then, turned into a "rehearsal" for the "Laser Shoe Show." The family was invited to attend and the boys put on a show with their glowing feet involving gymnastics, karate moves, jumps, and more. What seemed like an ordinary shoe purchase turned into being a creative spark that spurred little imaginations into actions. What surprising results!! Buy! Buy! Buy them!

The kids love it, so I love it
Let's face it, no little boy's shoes are going to last nomatter how well they're built. These have held up pretty well so far to their first week of intense abuse. I expect that they will reach the end of their lives at about the same rate as every other shoe, but because they light up and have a 'button' on them, they are delighting more than any shoe to date.Differentiators:- great sturdy velcro strap that I don't forsee breaking before the shoes wear out (which often happens - especially with other Sketchers)- nice fit- fun button feature for kids (and good feature for preschool teachers who are tired of looking at feet lighting up)- nice design and colors- should last a few months at leastRecommend these despite the lofty price tag.

PERFECT!! Loved the on/off button
This shoes are awesome and the on/off button is great for saving the battery life of the lights. The soles are a little heavy at first but I like the solid feel of the bottoms and hope they stand up better to my 3yr old boy, who puts every item of clothing through the ringer. The gray/clear sole doesn't stay gray for long. within one day the soles are more of a dirty tan color and don't wipe clean. My only regret was maybe picking the lighter colored soles; otherwise, I love this shoes and so does my son.

Son like them.
My son likes these shoes a lot. The right shoe seems to be just slightly looser than the other, but he wears them anyways. They light up pretty good, although not as bright as they are depicted on Skechers website. I would recommend, as long as you are buying them on Amazon because they are cheaper than if bought elsewhere (at the moment 03/20/14).

Shoes look great! My first grader loved them
Loved them! Lights are bright. Love the look & seem like they are sturdy & should last for awhil. I was worried they wouldn't be here in time for back to school but shipping was very fast. The only concern I had was the shoes were shipped without a box. They were in new condition so I'm satisfied.

My son loves these shoes
My 5 year old asked for these shoes, so we went to three stores before getting them online, his size was sold out elsewhere. We did have to buy one half-size larger than what he wears in other brands of shoes, so for us these ran small. He likes the fact that these light up alot compared to other light-up shoes, and that they "look cool". We've had these for two weeks now, so far so good. This is our first pair of Skechers, and we will be buying this brand again.

One of the buttoms doesn't work any more
My kid was happy when we receive his skechers but since the beggining I notice that one of the buttoms of the shoes was not working properly... It was hard to put it in on or off... two days later, it doesn't work any more... I bought another pair for my other kid, and that one is working fine... The shoes are just beautiful and the kids love them... I want to return only the ones that have the problem, but I don't know if I can do it, since he used them for two days... Karen

Very happy
My son loves these trainers and he loves the lights in them. They are very easy to put on and take off with the velcro strap so he can put them on independently. We are very happy. Initially I received a pair and the lights were not working in one of the shoes but I returned them and a replacement pair were sent to us (without being charged) before they had even received the damaged pair. I am very happy with this service. Thank you very much.

All good, kinda.
Bought these for my 8yr old son and upon delivery the lights on one of the trainers flickered instead of lighting for a couple of seconds as the other one does, no great issue but it would have been nice if both trainers lit up the same, my son likes them so won't bother returning them too much hassle, other than that they're as expected so it's all good.
