    poor customer service

    These shoes run small. I tried to initiate a return on these shoes but the website kept forcing me into an exchange, rather than a return. I got the 2.5 kids and needed a size 3 but there were no other (larger) sizes available in the Kids Athens or any other kids shoes for that matter. The website automatically selected a size 12 shoe (3 sizes smaller than what I needed!) for the exchange and wouldn't let me switch to any other shoe or do a return instead. I gave up and reached out to customer service but they immediately rejected my return request so now I have a pair of shoes that my son can never wear and I wasted my money. I'm very disappointed as I've been a loyal Kizik customer for many years, purchasing Kiziks for myself and so many others in my family - husband, kid, sister, niece, dad. You would think they would place a little more value in their customers.

    Pretty but off size

    Lousy. A granddaughter birthday present. Bought in advance. Tried to change a size and Kiki denied the return.

    Elastic laces

    These are good shoes, but why don’t they have tie laces as an option? My daughter had the same model in a smaller size previously and they had tie laces, and every other color in this model also has tie laces available. What’s up with that?
