Love these kid shoes as a 33 year old woman
The first thing that attracted me to the kids shoes were the colors. Kids shoes always have better colors most of the time than woman's. For some reason the standard colors for women are always pinks, purples and more feminine colors. I've never been a fan of those colors. I've always enjoyed the b...

Disappointed in the quality
Listen! I live by the Hokas that I wear. I own 5 pair of my own so I was excited to see that they make Cliftons in my 8 yr old daughter's size! I bought her a pair for PE at school.

Worst shoes. falling apart within 2 months
Reviewed at
I bought these for my daughter, and they are horrible quality. Less than two months from purchase and the tread is falling off the bottom of the shoe in strips exactly like it would if the glue was inadequate/not present. Sent them back and was told it was "normal wear and tear", less than two months in and apparently it normal for the tread to be coming off in fully intact strips. I guess they would be ok if you only expect them to last for a few weeks, otherwise not a good investment! Should have read the other reviews stating the same issues before wasting my money on these.

We understand how discouraging it would be to encounter this. Due to many different factors such as terrain, frequency of wear and natural elements, some pairs may wear quicker than others. Although we do cover manufacturing and material defects, normal wear and tear is not covered under our warranty.

Material not same quality as Men/Women

Like previous comments mentioned, these Clifton 9 shoes seem to be lighter and not of the same quality as Men/Women Clifton. This is our second pair within a year and I figured my child just really beat them up, but it maybe the quality.

Very light weight. I don't recommend for short people if they are looking for thick cushion.
