Our Take 

The Gel-Excite™ 9 GS (Grade School) running shoe is a lightweight, durable shoe for kids who love to play and offers a fit for the child that has a slender foot.  The shoe offers great breathability with fewer layers on the upper to reduce irritation in the forefoot and the EVA midsole offers good underfoot cushioning.
