Are these good for actual basketball?

They work for casual pickup games and driveway play. The high-top cut and non-marking outsole suit gym use, but the cushioning is basic compared with dedicated performance basketball shoes.

Do they fit true to size?

Most owners find the lace-up fit snug and close to the stated size. If your child has wide feet, consider going up a half size.

Can kids wear them outside?

Yes. The TPR outsole handles pavement and playgrounds, though heavy outdoor use wears the sole faster than gym-only play.

Are they easy to clean?

Yes. The synthetic upper wipes clean with a damp cloth, so scuffs and dirt come off easily.

Do they work for wide feet?

Some parents report a narrow fit. The lace-up closure lets you loosen the upper, but shoppers with wide feet often size up.

They are lace-up sneakers, which lets kids adjust the fit across the top of the foot.

Our take on the AND1 Little & Big Boys Basketball High-Top Sneakers, Lace-Up, Medium Width

These are AND1's boys' high-top basketball sneakers, built for indoor and outdoor play. The synthetic upper, padded tongue and collar, and cushioned footbed aim at comfort during long sessions, and the non-marking TPR outsole keeps them usable in a gym. They are a budget-friendly court shoe for young players, and the high-top cut gives more ankle coverage than low-top sneakers at the same level. Owners rate them well overall, though they are a casual play shoe rather than a performance model.
