Great quality and the styles are supercute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-not-a-fan-of-stride-rite-style#post-966113 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 08:37:13 +0000 prettylizy 966113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't LOVE them but we got her a pair of running shoes that I think of the same way I think of my sneakers, they're for a purpose not to be cute. She needed a rugged daycare shoe that work well as an early walker. I really wish I could have gotten a more neutral colour, but they get the job done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-not-a-fan-of-stride-rite-style#post-966045 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 08:20:45 +0000 Thenetexan 966045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In general I am not a fan. I had go buy them for awhile to accommodate a really wide foot. I had to stop using them because both the sandals and the tennis shoes made my LO's feet stink! It was a really strong horrible smell that has never happened with any other shoe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-not-a-fan-of-stride-rite-style#post-965983 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 08:07:19 +0000 loveisstrange 965983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am not a fan of most of their shoes. I prefer simple, classic colors and styles that go with many different outfits. I'm not a fan of most of their loud color schemes, prints, etc. I think they're kind of ugly.</p> <p>C does have a pair of muted pink t-straps from there (style is Trixie) and they are CUTE though. I think their classic-looking shoes are nice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-not-a-fan-of-stride-rite-style#post-965952 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 07:55:10 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 965952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: I get you. I'm hoping DD will be able to fit/wear DS's shoes and I won't have this problem! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-not-a-fan-of-stride-rite-style#post-965938 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 07:50:29 +0000 Weagle 965938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NaturallyCathy: I do think the boys' styles are better, but I kind of think that for all brands of kids shoes. I love little girl stuff, but I like simple neutral shoes, and it's hard to find anything that's not swimming in pink and glitter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-not-a-fan-of-stride-rite-style#post-965923 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 07:45:31 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 965923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never had any problem but maybe that's because I'm hunting for little boy shoes? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-not-a-fan-of-stride-rite-style#post-965918 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 07:44:14 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 965918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never bought shoes from there, either! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-not-a-fan-of-stride-rite-style#post-965907 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 07:42:04 +0000 Weagle 965907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the quality and that they're good for little feet, but I have a very hard time finding styles that I like. And I usually have coupons that go to waste because of it! </p>
