Tsukihoshi Kids

Racer (Toddler/Little Kid)

Other reviews said this ran big, but that doesn't seem to be the case for us (size 10.5). These are very cute, with a little bit of a chunky look. The velcro strap does not offer a lot of tightness, which could be a problem if sizing up. The tongue is attached on one side under the strap, making these a little different from most similar styles - but once you get used to it, it's an improvement because it means the tongue doesn't get pushed down when the kids put their shoes on. Pink color scuffs quickly.

Runs narrow for this brand. This style also runs about 1/2-1 size small

My daughter had the infant/toddler version of this shoe and it fit perfectly on her foot. She has a really high instep and it is pretty difficult to find shoes that fit her feet height wise. I assumed that the toddler/kid version of this shoe would fit the same but the part of the shoe that covers the top of your foot above your toe was so low and tight that I couldn’t get her foot in it so it had to be returned. I love this brand and these shoes are great quality but if your child has a high instep these will not work. I ended up getting her some plae shoes which are not as nice quality wise but they do fit her foot.

Very sad that this cute shoe turned out to provide very poor support. The soles don’t actually support my child’s foot, so that her feet were rolling inward significantly. The sole just isn’t wide enough at the heel and doesn’t align to where her heels rest. Terrible alignment, so unfortunately would not recommend.
