Any reviews on shoes for my baby?

He is learning to walk but won%26#039;t keep his shoes on. Any good ones that you have tried and the baby is comfortable too.


Also it shouldn%26#039;t be way too expensive since babies outgrow so fast.


Thanks

Any reviews on shoes for my baby?
as close to bare feet as possible.





when some protection is needed, outside and such... leather booties are best.





my favorite brand is Robeez... but they%26#039;re about $25 each... but these are half priced: http://stores.ebay.com/Shoes-Zoo





and many stores like Target are carrying some that are about half the Robeez cost too.





my daughter wore just socks w/ the little rubber designs on the soles to avoid slipping and when we went out she had some of the leather booties.
Reply:I love pediped shoes they are much cuter and just as great and effective and safe as robeez!
Reply:Anything that is soft and bendable is good. Slippers that fit well are fine too.
Reply:When babies are learning to walk it is actually better to not have them wear shoes. I only put the soft cushy sort of shoe things on my son when we were going places so he didn%26#039;t get cold. I think you are suppose to wait until the baby gets an arch in their feet before you start considering shoes. Or until he is walking very well.
Reply:Velcro closures are a must. And thinner, more flexible shoes are more comfortable to toddlers when they%26#039;re not used to walking around in any kind of shoe. Stride-Rite is a good place to find those first walking shoes. They are expensive (around $50) but they give much more than the less expensive shoes, and help toddlers achieve better balance, more natural foot motion, etc., which is great when they are just learning.





When he gets the hang of walking around, you can get him much cheaper shoes on sale at the Children%26#039;s Place. (Don%26#039;t buy into the hype that you have to keep buying those expensive shoes, unless he has a problem with his feet where they don%26#039;t fit right into cheaper ones.)
Reply:Let him go barefoot indoors.





For outside, Robeez are great.

Reply:I agree, Robeez are great shoes. My daughter got a pair as a gift when she was born and they were great then. They are the only shoes that stayed on her feet. So I keep buying them for her.





She started walking independently at 9 months old. I asked her pediatrician about shoes and walking last week as I have heard a few conflicting things. He said that she should walk around the house in bare feet preferably. If I want I can put her in soft-sole shoes like Robeez for about an hour a day to practice in them. Shoes aren%26#039;t necessary when they are small and not walking outdoors.
Reply:I totally love my Robeez shoes. They are expensive, but they come in size ranges so they fit for a long time (months). They are about $25, but you can buy them used on eBay for less. They are worth it. I am a stay-at-home mom and we live on my husband%26#039;s income only, but Robeez are one thing I will spend the money on. They last forever; I have pairs that were handed down to me, worn by my two girls, and still have lots of life in them for more kids. Babies cannot pull them off, they%26#039;re soft so they support the natural development of the foot and, my favorite, they can be thrown in the washing machine and dryer.





You can put Robeez on a baby when they%26#039;re a little floppy in the toe and they can wear them all the way until they%26#039;re too snug, so they last far longer than hard-soled or other kinds of shoes.





Other people like Bobux, which are also like Robeez. I have tried cheap brands, such as Cute Baby Shoes or the ones at Target, but they fall apart right away so were not worth it.
