Best pair of shoes
Love the style and fit of these shoes! They are for my 16-month old that is just beginning to walk. He’s outgrowing a pair of See Kai Run so we wanted to get him a new pair of shoes a size up. Stumbled upon these stride rite ones and the first day or two he had them on he didn’t walk as much, perhaps he needed to get used to them. Then after that, all he wants to do is walk when these shoes are on! It’s nice knowing these shoes are approved by pediatricians and good for their little growing feet. He doesn’t get stinky feet like the See Kai Run pair does. These shoes also looks nice, not too clunky and chunky. Best of all, the gray/blue color really hides the dirtiness! With it being on sale for $20, is a steal. My husband wanted to order an extra pair a size up just so the LO can keep wearing them for a while.

Best-est shoes ever!
The most comfiest, easy to use and toddler friendly shoes ever. Comfortable because the size is well developed, specifically for babies that has different size and features of their feet. Before you order they will provide a sizing guide and as a buyer you'll be able to check and see what size is appropriate for your child. Easy to use because we got the velcro strap type since toddlers are wiggly so putting it on is not that difficult. Toddler friendly because it has memory foam which is really good experience for first time walkers. It looks really cute on any outfit too!

Adorable, Functional Shoes For New Walkers!
These shoes are fantastic. They have all the things you want in a hard soled shoe for a new walker! They are sturdy and structured, yet very flexible. The toe area is nice and round, so my son's toes won't get pinched.I love the velcro closure. It has 2 spots for the velcro to attach, so it allows for it to be secure on the foot. It also allows for slight adjustments, depending on how chubby your child's foot is. The way the shoe is designed, you can pull the tongue forward - farther than laced shoes, making for easy on/off access.These shoes are not only adorable - they are incredibly functional for toddlers! I am very pleased with the quality of this shoe and highly recommend them.

So cute and fit great
So many shoe stores discontinued sizing shoes because of Covid, so I opted to order a number of Stride Rite shoes and physically try them on in the comfort of my home. These fit great, they open so wide and it’s easy to me to put on while the Velcro keeps them securely in place. Perfect first shoe!

Quality Shoes For Toddler
These shoes are awesome! I was very opposed to having my son wear shoes until he was walking because who wants to shove baby feet into shoes? Once he was on the verge of his first steps, however, I decided to do some research and get him a pair he could wear every day. My requirements for his shoes were that they were breathable, lightweight & flexible and had rubber soles. The Kellen Sneaker had all of this and more! I love how easy it is to put these shoes on my son. The mouth of the shoe is very large so it takes very little effort to put his tiny feet inside. These shoes can be dressed up or down and the color goes with everything. I'm so happy with this purchase.

Great Shoe, Easy to put on! Don't get wet!
Bought it for my 1 year old. He outgrew them and I bought the same shoe again. Easy for him to walk in and easy to put on. The tongue opens up almost the entire top of the shoe. We found out the hard way that you cannot get them wet or it will ruin the fabric. My son is now 17 months old and they are getting small. I'm going to buy a different shoe from the same company with hopefully the same fit to try to solve the problem with them getting wet. Good shoe for babies learning to walk just make sure they don't get wet

Great for Wide Feet
My son is 15 months old and needed shoes for daycare. The local Stride Rite store measured his foot at 5.5 Extra Wide. They didn't have any shoes that size, and the ones they did have, he couldn't even get his foot in it because the ankle opening was too small. I took a chance on these in a size 6 Wide, hoping his foot could grow into it a little bit.They fit his foot perfectly and have a little extra room at the end for his toes to grow. The best parts about these shoes are 1) the footbed is soft and flexible, which is great for a new walker like my son, and 2) you can pull the tongue on this shoe all the way forward so fat wide feet don't have to squeeze through a narrow opening.These shoes were more than I was wanting to pay, but they were the only ones that I could get on his foot. Once he had them on, he had zero trouble walking in them. I will probably continue to buy these in bigger sizes as he gets older.
