No Lace Trail Model Hiker Waterproof (Toddler/Little Kid/Big Kid)

My daughter has been wearing them for the past couple of weeks. No complaints! I would buy them again.

I own 4 pairs of the tie version trail model hikers (2 insulated and 2 not insulated) and one pair of the low heighth trail model. I was pleased to see the velcro model since I have arthritis and tying is difficult. I am a woman in my mid 70s but wear between a 2 and 2.5 children's shoe. All my previous hikers are a size 4 except for one that is size 3. Since the reviews said this was true to size I ordered a size 3. They just fit with regular socks. I am sending them back to get a size 4 since I want to wear hiking socks and an innersole since there is no arch support. As another reviewer mentioned, these are not made as well and as comfortable as the former models. I started buying these hikers 7 years ago and the structure and materials are better on all my previous pairs. These are not made for rugged hikes. They are too light. However, I will use them for winter walking when it is cold and difficult to lace my other boots or in the summer for trail hiking. I am so please to find a somewhat more rugged shoe with velcro. I have children's Hoka trail shoes with speed laces but wanted these boots for wet and messy conditions. In summary: These boots work well for women with small feet. I wear a size 4 in women's shoes. (They are as difficult to find as a unicorn.) Adults who wear a size 5 or 6 shoe can wear the size 6 or 7 Children's hikers.

When I find a pair of shoes that work fit my kids, we keep sizing up. These are the most comfortable, most protective and supportive shoe for little kids. Mine have worn them to school, hiking, playground, trick or treat, And everywhere else they need to do a lot of walking. I love these shoes. Keep making them!

We bought these for my son in November, (4months ago). He’s worn them every day and is very active. They are still in great condition and completely waterproof. They offer excellent support. They were perfect for puddles, snow, mud, and still wearing them all day at school.

I bought these for my son 10/18/25, received them 10/24. Around 12/5, not even a month and a half later, I noticed the front part of the sole that's glued to the toe box coming unglued. I message LLBean using their own site's email page around 12/10 to let them know, asking about next steps, and how to proceed about a return for refund (since the shoes are obviously used I didn't know if the same return process applies) and didn't get a response. Not even an automated email back letting me know they got the message. NOTHING. What kind of company is this, that makes products of such low quality and then simply ignores its customers when a problem comes up? The issue with the sole coming unglued happened even after I noticed my child's feet GETTING WET in these "waterproof" shoes. I was willing to overlook that issue, and was having him wear them only on dry days (very hard to do when you live in the Pacific NW). That means he only wore them maybe 3/4 of the days out of 40, being generous, OR 30 DAYS we owned the shoes. That is $3 PER DAY for the "privilege" of wearing LL Ban shoes!!! I don't think so. This was my first ever purchase and will for sure be my last as well.

Comfortable.

Nice.

Another A+ L.L. Bean purchase: we bought this pair in the store, my kid has had them for about a month and absolutely love them. They are waterproof easy to put on because of the Velcro and extremely comfortable another A+ L.L. Bean purchase.

Great shoes for a small woman. My wife was having trouble keeping her shoestrings tied (no fault of her own) and these solved the problem nicely. She is very petite at 4' 8" and a child's size 3 shoe. She is very happy with both pairs of these hikers that we've purchased from LL Bean.
