How have you found these brand of shoes to be?
I like the fact they are machine washable so my daughter and get them dirty and i don't have to worry that they'll remain that way! Also have a good heal counter and are a made of a natural material.

Thoughts? are they a good shoe or best to try other types/brands.

I found the quality to be okay, but not fantastic. I have had a few pairs of these for my daughter and on one of the pairs, the canvas started separating from the sole in a relatively short period of time. Keds are my personal favorite sneaker - they seem to hold up better than most other brands!

They are good shoes since the toe box is wide (allowing a lot of wiggle room) and the soles are flexible. I've had a few pairs for my daughter and the rubber tends to separate after a couple of months. I've never washed them, but I think they'd hold up pretty well.

The shoes are a good deal when bought on clearance (less than $12), the last couple of pairs I bought were $7. I don't think they are worth the retail price of $18.50+.

I've bought tennis shoes from Target that are just as good.
