New Balance TD 990v6 - Navy / Silver

The padded collar makes these easy to slip on my wiggly one-year-old, and the leather and mesh upper seems sturdy enough for playground wear. They've held up well through a few weeks of crawling and first steps.

My toddler loves running around in these, and the rubber outsole gives me peace of mind on slick floors. The leather and mesh upper seem durable enough for all his adventures.

The padded collar is a lifesaver for my toddler’s wiggly feet—no rubbing even on long stroller walks. The rubber outsole grips well on both pavement and grass, and the flat cotton laces stay tied way better than I expected.
