This is brilliant! I'm always curious as to when to buy new shoes for DS so I take him into the store and have them measure him. This is easier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2161190 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:27:11 +0000 Pirouette 2161190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>never saw this! of course, LO grows out of her shoes width-wise before length-wise, so i doubt it will help us. but that's neat anyway </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2161119 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 14:46:22 +0000 Ginabean3 2161119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup! All the stride rite shoes that LO has has these! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2161114 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 14:39:59 +0000 Smurfette 2161114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: take the sole out of the shoe and do it. Much easier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2161110 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 14:35:13 +0000 PinkElephant 2161110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cool! I have trouble doing the finger test on DD's stiffer shoes (especially boots), so this is a neat feature. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2161071 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:59:59 +0000 Smurfette 2161071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl: You should be able to fit a finger between the child's toe and the end of the shoe. At least that is what the salesperson at Stride Rite told me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2161067 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:54:58 +0000 cascademom 2161067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've seen the ones in Stride Rite. I didn't realize that they're in the Umis. LO has a pair of them. I'm going to look at his tonight for this. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2161060 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:53:22 +0000 JoJoGirl 2161060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: What's the finger test? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2161053 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:50:17 +0000 artsyfartsy 2161053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's cool!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2161050 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:48:58 +0000 bunnylove08 2161050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>wow never knew this! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2160986 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:13:23 +0000 blackbird 2160986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>the stride rite ones have them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2160979 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:07:04 +0000 Smurfette 2160979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have seen it on a couple pairs. But SKR are my favs and they don't have it. I just go by the finger test. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2160977 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:06:35 +0000 Foodnerd81 2160977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: I mean, it makes sense-- tell people when they need to buy new shoes and they will buy more shoes. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2160973 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:03:37 +0000 autumnlove 2160973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't know! I will check tonight! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-know-this#post-2160969 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:01:11 +0000 Foodnerd81 2160969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did you know some toddler shoe makers have markings on the inside that tell you when you need new shoes? A friend mentioned that stride rite does, so I looked at our Umis and they do too! I had no idea!</p> <p>In case you cant read it it says "markings on the toe, time for new shoes"</p> <p>[attach=2307/15/nnky1z.450x600.image.jpg] </p>
