As noted by others, we have not had any problems with the Velcro closings.
Our 2 yr old can take his shoes off, and does so after asking or upon 
being requested to do so.  The Velcro has never (to our knowledge) come
undone on its own.  We usually get the cheapest pair we can find at K-Mart
(he outgrows them before we can get them home, or so it seems) and have
no reason (yet) to alter our practice.
