Synopsis

Until the Los Angeles Olympics , China had never won an Olympic gold medal; today , she is one of the major medal contenders. China's sudden emergence as a sporting super power came as a surprise to many people. In reality, she has a long history of sports.

Polo, wrestling, soccer, diving, acrobatics, martial arts, archery, marathon races, tug of war, swimming, ice skating, and weight lifting were all popular sports in ancient China. Some sports were invented by the Chinese; other such as polo and marathon-style racing were developed by the different ethic groups on the borders of the country and became popular within China as well.

Runs small
Size: 11 Wide Big Kid, Color: Black/White, Size: 11 Wide Big Kid, Color: Black/White
Runs extremely small, but does look like a nice shoe. I ordered 11W for my grandson. The image shows a different brand size 10 red shoe. As you can see the red one is bigger and wider than the new one ordered.

Good. Just good.
Overage at best. Not a bad sneaker for running and courts. The bottoms wore out faster than I thought but they are comfortable.

Sturdy, supportive, wish they were a bit more breathable
Bought these for my seven year old after he tore through a cheaper pair of tennis shoes in a month. These have held up very well, still looking decent after several months of heavy use, just a few minor scuffs. The fit is great and they are very comfortable for him. My only complaint is that they are not as breathable as I would expect and my son’s feet get hot and sweaty very easily inside. Overall, they’ve been very durable and I would buy again.
