Rebel Athletic Unisex's Rebel Ruthless White Cheer Shoe

I have purchased two of these exact sneakers for both of my children. I had started off with a not so well known brand that I purchased off Amazon. That one cost half the price of this from Rebel. However, after four months those other sneakers were unusable.I then decided to invest in these as they were a known brand, had good reviews and perhaps the hype was true.So far the first pair purchased in September 2023 have lasted and look great.This is my second pair for my other child and they came just like you see in the picture. The shoe lace was ripped. However, the shoe itself was fine. I did speak with Amazon and they refused to provide a small discount for accommodate the need to purchase new shoelaces. Instead, they requested in return the sneakers. My child had already used them once so I didn't feel it right to return a used pair of sneakers that were otherwise in good shape. I had simply felt that, for the price, I shouldn't have had to purchase new shoelaces to begin with. We kept them but have deducted a star due to this.So far these are doing well and my kids find them very comfortable. To be honest they found the less expensive brand just as comfortable too. But, those less expensive ones didn't last longer than four months.Con: price is pretty high.Quality control (see attached picture)I have seen kids with these looking pretty dirty in the mesh section. I have my kids take them off immediately after practice and they do not wear them out on the street. So the sneakers they have still look good.

We bought these shoes for my sophomore daughter, who is in sideline and competition cheer with her high school. She wears these ones only for competition and within three months the sole is separating from the shoe. We were told that these are well-made, sturdy shoes and sadly they have not lived up to their hype. We are just outside of the window to be able to return them otherwise we would.

Daughter loves them for cheer. Says not to heavy for flying

We received this product used and dirty. The shoe bottoms were worn and dirty. The outside was dirty. The insoles were worn and you could see the heel print. We are returning these and ordering direct.
