Toddler Shoes

I need recommendations for comfy walking shoes for a toddler. We are hitting up Disney next month and although we are bringing the stroller the lil man will want to march around.

TIA

Re: Toddler Shoes

  • Stride rites. Pricey but I know my kids won't get blisters. We do SR almost exclusively until they are 4. My pedi convinced me early on that when they are learning to walk/run, they need GOOD support for their growing feet.

  • We love Pedipeds! I've been able to find them on sale for great deals at both REI and amazon.

  • DS (was 2, almost 3 at the time) alternated between Stride Rite sneakers, Crocs, and Nike running sneakers when we went to Disney in October. Didn't have any issues...make sure you break them in before you go :-)

  • Striderite! For things like sandals try the SmartFit line from Payless. They look like sandals or dress shoes but they have the bottom of a sneaker.

  • Thanks ladies! I'm gonna get my hands on some stride rites :) and perhaps some Disney crocs if they make them. He also wears his converse a lot but I feel they might be too hot with socks.
  • I love See Kai Run! They are also very pricey, but there is a SKR Facebook page and I often get brand new or barley used ones on there for a lot cheaper.

  • We did Stride Rites until he was about 1.5 and then we found Keens. I love the sandals but he also has a pair of hiking shoes.

  • We did Keens at Disney. Just don't get the all plastic ones. You want the more expensive HH2 type. We love Keens.

  • Stride Rite or See Kai Run...I like the SKR because they seem to last a little longer than the SR which she outgrows quickly

    Look around on different websites..I've never paid over $25 for either brand..they're sold at a ton of places

  • Make sure you take him to the SR store to get measured. There have been several times when I thought they were one sz only to find I was way off!

  • I will look into Keens and SKR too.  And thanks for the tip on SR sizing.  I'll take him to get measured.  The store near me sells them for like $45.99 CDN but I've seen them on Amazon.com for $25 US. Much better deal.
  • SandAndsSea I totally agree!
  • Stride Rite, Crocs, SKR, Keens were our go-to footwear for DD while we were in Disney.
