I have recently noticed that the quality of the children's shoes and heels leaves a lot to be desired. Either the soles and/or the Velcro fasteners of the last three pairs of shoes (2 x children's finches, 1 x sandals) are coming loose. With superglue, the sandals are now holding together reasonably well; we had to dispose of the heels. I'm not talking about cheap shoes here, but about the mid-price segment.
A real shame.
