Tatum 3

Looking for an easy to wear yet adorable baby shoe? Look no further! These shoes were so cute and my child seemed to think they were very comfortable. They have just enough pop of color to excite little ones yet match a big variety of colors! Extremely easy to put on, wipe off easy for the adventures they will be taken on. We would be back for more of these in other colors.

This is the first time we've tried the Tatum line of shoes from Nike. Right away, my son was super excited and couldn't wait to put them on. He's been wearing them on and off for weeks now. The shoe is easy to put on and take off, but it doesn't have trouble staying on throughout the day like some other shoes we've had. This kid definitely puts the shoes through their paces between running through the rain and climbing all over the jungle gym. He has never said anything about their fit other than they are comfortable, and he really likes them. Being that these are from Nike, we had no concerns over the build quality or materials. I expect that they'll last for quite some time. He will probably grow out of the shoes long before they start to break down due to wear and tear. The shoes run true to size, so there are no issues there. He is still too young to really take the shoes to a basketball court and try them, but they look like they'd be just fine if he did. Upper ankle support is solid, and when they are laced up, they stay good and tight. Overall, these shoes are exactly what we were looking for, and Nike came through for us again. I'd have no issue purchasing the shoes again because I know he likes them, and they'll stand up to whatever he throws at them. My son will be turning three in a few months, and I can't wait to see what new adventures he comes up with to drag the shoes along with him. From a parent's perspective, I like the durability of the shoes. They can be cleaned pretty easily and handle water without issue. He says they are comfortable and he has no issues wearing them for long periods. The design seems good, and he likes the way they look. I don't think I'd change anything about the shoes. I'm sure he would be interested in some other colorways, but there's nothing wrong with the one he has either. This pair was a win for sure.

As always, my concern with these “shrunk” shoes for kids is that it won’t be a good translation from the big version to the little version that requires parents to put them on. These rock! And are really thoughtful. The collapsing heel is excellent and works really well with the stretchy tongue. Despite those stretchy features, it doesn’t feel lose once it’s on. I actually got a size bigger than usual and it’s fit surprisingly well. Our little guy has been running all over with them and having no issues. He’ll even grab them over his other shoes when we get ready to head out the door!
