School will be upon us in two weeks which means new clothes and shoes for the kids. Shaun is a sneaker kind of kid so I always try to get him the most comfortable and durable pair I can because after all he is 7 years old which means he destroys everything. My first choice for Shaun is New Balance because that is all I wear and I find them to be extremely comfortable and durable. We were lucky enough to receive a pair of Kids KJ910 New Balance Fierce Trax Lace-Up Shoe in Grey/Lime for review.
I must admit the KJ910 in Grey/Lime is a slick looking sneaker. I was impressed with its look and design right out of the box and when Shaun put them on for the first time they really looked good. Shaun loved how they looked and after he put them on he ran from the living room to the kitchen. I wondered what he was doing and he said he wanted to see if they were comfortable to run in and he said they were. Not sure how much a 20 foot run is going to tell him but if they are like the other 4-5 pair of New Balance sneakers Shaun has had these are going to be perfect for him. The KJ910 have a mesh upper which will keep Shaun’s feet cool and they also have a non-marking outsole making these perfect for gym.
From the new kids’ NB Fierce Trax Collection, this aggressive cheetah-inspired running shoe features N-ergy in the heel and NB GRIP technology on the outsole, bringing you a durable, fashionable and functional treat for your child’s feet.
Another reason that I really like New Balance is because they are more then just a shoe company. They are into awesome causes like being the national sponsor of the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure for the 6th consecutive year and Girls on the Run which is a non-profit prevention program that encourages pre-teen girls to develop self-respect and healthy lifestyles through running.
