Product Description

Streamlined, flexible and light, this sneaker holds its ground with a non-marking rubber outsole and higher-traction, multi-directional grip. So, it can stand up to whatever little feet can dish out, from the playground to the campground. The Chandler 2 CNX sneakers for kids are built off KEEN's traditional wider footwear form so growing feet have room to spread out. Let them get dirty! Our kids’ shoes for boys and girls are machine washable. KEEN is a values-led, family-owned maker of original hybrid footwear for working and playing outside. Since 2003, KEEN has been consciously creating sandals, boots, shoes, and sneakers in its mission to make the outdoors more accessible for everyone. Every KEEN product is Consciously Created to help leave the planet better than we found it.

Customers like the fit of the shoes. They mention that the material, the way it looks, and the fit are great. The width is awesome, with a bit of room to grow but not overly big. The shoes are foot shaped and have a wide enough toe box so that the toes don't get irritated. The wide toebox is great for comfort and allows for natural foot movement.

Customers are dissatisfied with the laces of the shoes. They mention that the laCES just snapped a month after receiving them, the lace separated from the fabric, and the loops the lace go through tore through. The stretchy laces on one of the shoe came unsewn and now the shoe is too loose. The drawstring for the la laces broke after only a week of wear. The bungee on the shoe snapped so they will not tighten any longer. The build is very rugged, the top shoelace eyelet broke, rendering the shoe useless. The side straps came unstitched, and stitching along the sole of the boot burst.

"...He wore through the strap making the shoe laces useless...." Read more

"...After 4.5 months the sole is separating from the upper (along the big toe joint to arch area)-but considering what my kid puts these through..." Read more

"...My only issue is the laces which can tear after only a few months. I've had to buy a few new pair of laces because they don't last...." Read more

"Great shoes. No laces to tie. Awesome rubber toe. Love the orange pinkish color. Run true to size." Read more

Was great, then broke
3 Stars
Was great, then broke
The shoe was great for about two months, and my son does really like the shoe. However, my hard playing son found the flaw in this shoe design. The strap that goes around the ankle of the shoe is integral to the shoe strings staying tight. However, it’s also a weak point. He wore through the strap making the shoe laces useless. I was able to sew down the broken strap and salvage the shoe, but who wants to have to repair a shoe after 2 months? Because I’m lazy I’m waiting for the other shoe to break before doing the same repair - but you can see it’s almost ready to break (fine I’ll fix it today).Keens— literally like one extra step per shoe and these would be great shoes…
