Perfect wide toe box for natural toddler feet!
These shoes are PERFECT for my little ones. My daughter picked out this color after I found shoes that I thought would allow her little toes to spread out naturally, like they are designed to do. We generally favor barefoot or minimal shoes, but my girls needed some good sneakers for playing. I'm so glad we found these! Many shoes for toddlers have a too-narrow toe box and an elevated heel, but these do not. My girls have a good, natural gait in these, and on the first outing in these shoes (a hike right away), my daughter kept saying over and over, "I do love my new shoes!" I'd say that's a win all around.The regular price is a little much in my personal opinion, since they grow so fast, but we got these on a super sale. This is definitely our favorite go-to style for sneakers at this point! Easy to put on, comfortable according to the kiddos, and super cute.

Comfy, cute, and they stay on!
My one-year-old son seems to like these shoes! They fit as expected, are easy to put on and remove (for me, not for him 😎), and go with everything. I thought the price was great too, $20 when I bought them. I did quite a bit of shopping around before buying these, and for Stride Rite shoes these are a great value.

Just as good as more expensive brands
Perfect first walkers. No worse than a higher price brand we bought.

Not really able to assess beyond looks & fit D/T UNEXPECTED CANCER Diagnosis 😥
First pair was too small but 2nd fit good (WHEN he STOPPED CURLING his toes,Lol!!) He is OBSESSED WITH ELMO!! On a more SERIOUS NOTE: HE UNFORTUNATELY wasn't able to wear them very long(maybe TWICE?) As he VERY QUICKLY became UNABLE to walk & Was then Diagnosed with an AGGRESSIVE & Malignant Brain tumor!! He & we all loved these shoes, However, now that he's been getting treatment for his Cancer, walking took a back seat for a while and I don't believe they will even fit anymore (will retry now that he's getting physical therapy while he "lives at Children's hospital" for these AWFUL treatments. In the meantime, I got him some NO SLIP, ELMO socks to start with during PT. Hopefully with treatment,physical therapy & lots of prayers...I will get to buy him another (larger) pair in the near future 🤔. I DO think that YOU will be VERY HAPPY with your purchase!!

Best sneaker for a toddler
We purchased this sneaker after extensive research and input from family and friends. Stride Rite is FANTASTIC when it comes to comfort, durability, and ease of care. This sneaker supported my daughter's feet as she learned to walk yet allowed her freedom of movement. These sneakers were easy to clean by just tossing them in the wash. The colors went easily with every outfit she had, and she got tons of compliments as well. I'm so sad they're discontinuing these shoes. However, I already purchased her next stride rites. Highly recommend.

The only shoes I'll buy my son as a toddler
Toddler feet are fat wide and not use to walking at first. That's why I will spend triple the amount on these shoes than I'd ever spend on myself. And within the first 2 years they grow half a size every 2 months or so. But they're definitely worth it! Until they're feet aren't so fat and can walk in shoes better. Helps that the quality is so great and the colors are amazing.

Great for 1st pair
I purchased these for my son's 1st pair of shoes. I love that they are super flexible it helps with kids just learning to walk. They are light weight so the kids don't struggle with lifting their feet. They can be a little of a struggle to get on but I think most baby shoes are a struggle. The strap on thr shoes makes it really easy to secure the shoes. Highly suggest these shoes for kids that are learning to walk.
