User Reviews
good quality, comfy stylish! Have liked them so much have had 2 pairs of this same shoe.
Very good quality, I had to return because ordered 13 when I should have ordered 12. It was discounted when ordered and I would have reorder 12 if discount was still there.
I gave ordering Stride Rite shoes another shot. 1st time the shoes started coming apart after my son worn on 3x.So far these shoes fit my little guy comfortably and they go well with all his outfits. They haven’t started peeling apart and velcro has lasted. Fingers crossed!
these are my son's everyday shoes and they've held up very well for the last few months
Nice ankle support for my grandson. It’s improved his walking ability. Was afraid he was going to twist an ankle while wearing other shoes.
These were great for my son. He was 15-16 months old and still a touch unsteady on his feet. Despite that, he still tried to run all over our tiled floors! We had slips, trips, and all manners of bumps and bruises.. These helped him keep his feet and ankles stable while he waddled about. We noticed far fewer falls and he picked up speed. Even walking without these shoes, we noticed an improvement in his steps and walking. My only complaint is the price point. Of course, these are quality made shoes and the price reflects it. But we're getting close to going up a size and we're not looking forward to the dough we have to shell out in the coming months. Oh well, that's the price we parents have to pay!
My baby just started walking at 16 months. These fit him great and are much easier to put on than some of the trendier Nikes that we have been gifted. The insole is very supportive as well. These meet the expectation I have in mind when I think Stride Rite and they are a great first shoe.
Wow these shoes really add that something to an outfit. In the midwest it's nice to have these protecting the ankles from a chilly breeze. I would definitely buy these again!
