Folding Kiddie Kick Scooter Color PINK

Folding Kiddie Kick Scooter Color PINK




Calling the future generation of scooter riders! Now little ones who’ve been envying the big kids’ Razor scooters have one they can call their own. With the Folding Kiddie Kick, Razor has made riding a scooter fun and easy for children six and under. The scooter’s stand-aline, three wheel design makes for a more stable ride and the super slip-resisitant deck keeps kids on their little toes. The new folding mechanism makes it easy to take along to grandma’s or the park. They’re sure to enjoy the fun colors too.

User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars Good starter scooter
I bought this scooter for my 3 year old so he would have a good quality first scooter that also looked like his older brother’s Razor scooter. The first one that arrived in the mail had the plastic around the wheels broken off so we had to return it. The second one arrived and has been fine ever since but I worry about all the plastic. With a boy riding it (and one already arriving broken), I wonder how long the plastic will hold up. Considering the regular Razors are all metal, I’m not sure why the base and unerside has so much plastic on it. That’s my only complaint. Otherwise, it’s a great first scooter.

3 Stars Fancy but not functional
It surely is a fancy scooter I’ve ever seen.

But it was too slow and even risky (handle bar) for my 3 yr old boy.

Shipping was delayed, and the logo on the handle bar was printed on the back, and my boy kept asking me which way the handle was supposed to go.

2 Stars Doesn’t glide but good stability
We got the Razor Jr scooter for our 3 1/2 year old. You have to constantly kick to keep moving - it never glides like a classic Razor scooter. If you are looking for the stability of the 3 wheels with the glide of a classic Razor try the Mini Kick Scooter by Micro Mobility for around $75. If your kid is fairly coordinated and can balance then just get the classic Razor Scooter A.

5 Stars My grandson Jake
Jake thanks you for the many hours of funds he already enjoyed riding his razor. I thank you for a prompt delivery.

4 Stars all good
Its really good, little one likes it a lot. I just wish it was little bit cheaper to deserve 5 stars.

    4 Stars Newport H2 Keens
    I love the color and found the shoe to be very comfortable. I have a bunions and it didn’t bother it at all. I have very hot feet and found the shoe made my feet sweat…maybe the more open Keen would be better for hot feet.

    5 Stars Best all-terrain shoes ever!
    I bought these shoes for both my husband and myself for a 2-week trip through Costa Rica. They handled hiking through jungles, streams, ocean, rocks, and volcanoes equally well. The toe protection is great to prevent stubbed toes, and in my case made me feel a little bit better about not scooping up a scorpion. Best of all, my feet felt great and I had no blisters, even after days of 5 mile hikes. They’re not the prettiest shoes ever, but as far as functionality and comfort goes, I will stick with Keens from now on!

    2 Stars My feet got hot!
    I bought these to take to Jamaica. I had read all the reviews and they sounded like a great pair of shoes.

    I put them on and in a few minutes of just standing my feet were hot. I couldn’t believe how hot my feet got just standing in one place. I walked back and forth across the room and my feet were cool as long as I was walking.

    The the footbed of the shoe was hard and slightly pebbley. After I took them off the bottom of my feet were tender.

    I was a little disappointed in them. Since the shoes were not cheap I decided to return them.

    That same day I ordered a pair of Teva Omnium shoes. The Tevas arrived a few days latter and I love them.

    My recommendation is pass on these shoes and for about the same money buy a pair of Tevas.

    5 Stars Appreciative
    I really enjoy my purchase! The keens are wonderful. THe shipping took a little longer than I had planned for, but I am so glad that I made the purchase!

    5 Stars Great sandal, great foot support!
    Love the sandal. Great foot support. I have flat feet and have some arch problems and this sandal makes it possible for me to wear sandals, and not have aching feet, after wearing them.

    Havaianas Womens Top Flip Flop

    Monday, July 27th, 2009

    Havaianas Womens Top Flip Flop




    Eight juicy colors to collect. You’ll wear them with everything–trust us!

    User Ratings and Reviews

    5 Stars The perfect flip flop
    I’m so happy with these flip flops! They feel very sturdy, yet still lightweight and VERY comfortable. I ordered white and they’re very cute so I’m getting them in two other colors. Sure, you can get cheaper brands of flip flops, but these really feel like they’re well-made and will last a long time. Definite 5-star purchase!

    5 Stars fav sandals
    my fav sandals in black cant match them with anything i love that they r comfy and how they wont slip wheres it wet!

    4 Stars Excellent Flip Flops But Pricey
    I really like these flip flops, but whether they are worth the money is questionable. They are very soft and comfortable, but don’t seem that much different from other flip flops you can get a the drugstore.

    4 Stars Comfortable flip flop
    This is a very comfortable flip flop for a good price. I’ve worn them a few times and do not get that chafing in between toes like with the cheaper ones. I will wear these all summer! Great neutral color with jeans and jean shorts.

    1 Star BEWARE: RETURN POLICY
    Shoes are great. Return policy is non-existent, horrible, awful. I received a pair of shoes that had a disgusting brown stain on the footbed. I called to get my exchange number and was told my shipping would be reimbursed since it was a problem with the shoe. Returned the shoe and called to check on status of my shipping reimbursement and was told this time that they do not pay for return shipping EVEN IF IT IS THEIR ERROR. Is there any way to hold them accountable for this? The only way I can think of is to boycott internet purchases. I love internet shopping and do it frequently. This is the first time I’ve ever encountered a firm that does not reimburse when they are in error. I will never purchase from them again.

    ASICS Womens GEL Kayano 15 Running Shoe

    Saturday, July 25th, 2009

    ASICS Womens GEL Kayano 15 Running Shoe




    The 15th version of the GEL-Kayano series will live up to its reputation of delivering cutting-edge components to complement the shoe’s exceptional performance and comfort. New for 2009 are the additions of ASICS Asymmetrical Lacing Design for improved upper fit and a new midsole platform that delivers the famous GEL-Kayano ride that runners expect.

    User Ratings and Reviews

    3 Stars Runs Small, Narrow Toebox, Good Support
    I have worn Asics for years and “upgraded” to the Kayano 15 after my Nimbus 9’s started to wear out. I usually order my true size, 8.5 B, and don’t need to size up. However, these shoes, even when the laces were loosened to try and increase the toebox area, were still a bit snug across the toes. I ran in them 3 times and developed blisters on both sides of my toes each time. I paid a lot of money for these shoes and have always been very happy with my Asics in the past, but these did not live up to my expectations. They are a bit stiff also, but do provide good cushioning/support as they did alleviate the knee pain I experience when my shoes need to be replaced. I would advise you to go up 1/2 size for maximum comfort in the toebox which runs narrower than the Nimbus and GT2130 shoes.

    4 Stars Slight difference in the Gel Kayano 15 vs the 14
    I have worn the Gel Kayano running shoe for years, but seems to be a slight difference in this version……..comes up a little higher on the ankle and rubs…..not really noticeable with anklets as opposed to no-show socks! Still otherwise comfortable running shoe and best fit for me!

    5 Stars Love them!
    I have had earlier models in the Kayano line, but I love all the up dates! I run over 30 miles a week so I love how cushiony they are. It really saves my joints. The thing that I love most about Asics is that when I put them on I just have the urge to head right out and run. I think it’s the way the toe box curves up, it just makes me want to lean forward and go! I have read complaints on this site about the toe box having too much room in the Kayano 15. I have to disagree with that. The toe box is comfortably snug without making the heel too tight which for me has been a problem with other shoes. Because of this my toe doesn’t slide to the front of the shoe and jamb my toes. On a more superficial note: I also really like the paisley print fabric on the inside of the shoe. It’s those nice visual details that make me want to wear them around town and when doing strength training after their running mileage has long passed! The only complaint I could even give is the price. I wish great running shoes weren’t so expensive but at least you get what you pay for with the Kayano line.

    5 Stars My wife loves this shoe!
    My wife recently purchased this shoe for running on a treadmill and loves it. She gets great support and her heels/balls of feet feel pretty good after a good workout which is unusual for her. The shoe is definitely worth it’s steep price and she would recommend it to anyone.

    5 Stars great running shoes!
    These shoes are all I’ve been wearing for the past few years. I wear .5 size up from my normal size but they fit great and have lots of support. I have damaged my knees from years of track and these shoes allow me to keep running without any pain. My fitness instructor is also a fan and uses only these shoes - I would trust her opinion on anything she is so athletic!

    Converse Chuck Taylor All Star High Top Black M9160

    Saturday, July 25th, 2009

    Converse Chuck Taylor All Star High Top Black M9160




    Classic design that hasn’t changed in years and years and years. Try them for the first time — again.

    User Ratings and Reviews

    5 Stars As many weight trainers will attest…
    …Chuck Taylor All Stars are good for doing squats. That’s why I buy them. A lot of athletic shoes have a good amount of padding on the bottom, which is fine for running, but while doing squats, makes my feet feel slightly wobbly. The Taylors allow my feet to stay firmly planted, which helps me maintain proper technique.

    3 Stars looks great, hurts like hell
    These shoes look fantastic, but they seem to be a different shape to my feet - they’re too long and too narrow, giving me blisters on my pinkie toes.

    5 Stars Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Hip Top
    This company was excellent to deal with. When we received the shoes, they didn’t fit properly. Exchanging them was a breeze and another size was promptly sent to us at no extra charge to us. Very efficient.

    5 Stars I Love these shoes!!
    I love my Chucks!! I have been wearing Chucks none stop since I first saw Wayne’s World when I was 11 or 12 I am 28 now. Great shoes very comfortable especially when they are broken in, feels like not wearing shoes at all. this seller is very fast and cheep I will buy again!

    1 Star Awful quality
    The Chucks one can purchase nowdays only cosmetically resemble the older USA made shoes. The build quality and materials are simply atrocious. I recently bought a new pair, and they completely fell apart after only THREE DAYS. The sole of the shoe came away from the upper, leaving me with gaping holes along the bottom seams of the shoe. My part in causing this? I had the audacity to actually walk in them. No running, no outdoors hiking, no sloshing through puddles. The most rigorous thing I put them through was about 3 miles of level ground walking. It was too much obviously.

    I’ve bought drug store flip flops that have lasted longer. For a shoe who’s storied pedigree started as the worlds first shoe produced for basketball, how do we end up with a product that couldn’t last for a full quarter of a game?

    As I recall, Chucks used to have a significant break-in period, as they had rather rigid canvas. Now, they’re all floppy, right from the box. The stitching seems less robust as well. I’d imagine that cost-cutting, the sale of Converse to Nike, and the move of production to Indonesia were all contributing factors for this decline.

    Hey guys, here’s an idea: [...] Use canvas, and if you’re gluing the sole to the upper, try using a substance that is, oh, I don’t know… sticky? Seriously, it may save you a few bucks to make your shoes out of spun cotton candy and baby girl breath, but at the end… have you made an actual SHOE?

    [...] If he were alive today, I really doubt he’d endorse this product. At this point, I’m starting to think Chuck Taylor must have played the game barefoot.

    Now, I fully understand that people buy these without any idea of actually using them for sports. People buy them because the old-fashioned clown-shoe look is still kinda cool. However, cool takes on another meaning entirely when the shoe has decided to spontaneously ventilate itself by releasing its grip on the sole.

    [...]

    Sorry Converse. I mean, I’ve loved Chucks all my life. Why did you quit making them?
