Then it was Stride Rites because we were taking him outside to the park. We had a heck of a time finding the right shoe and I was returning to Amazon a million times and it wasn't until I took him to the store to get measured and try on shoes that I realized while his foot measured size 4, his feet were so wide he needed size 5W! So now he basically only wears Stride Rites because of his bread loaf feet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-pair-of-shoes#post-2489356 Wed, 09 Mar 2016 21:56:29 +0000 schubr03 2489356@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just bought my DD first pair of real shoes.

She had been pulling herself up and cruising for about a month and had recently started crawling. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-pair-of-shoes#post-2489086 Wed, 09 Mar 2016 16:40:11 +0000 Mrs. Toad 2489086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>14 months, almost 15 months) when he started trying to walk.

He started pulling up about 2 weeks after he started full on crawling. They help keep him from pulling his socks off, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-pair-of-shoes#post-2489061 Wed, 09 Mar 2016 16:29:52 +0000 snowjewelz 2489061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had mocs for when she started to pull up to stand!</p> <p>ETA: I'd basically get anything with soft flexible soles since they're constantly going from sitting/crawling to standing/cruising. When DD first walked she really didn't like anything with a harder sole like stride rite... But once she was a more confident walker she could wear pretty much anything! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-pair-of-shoes#post-2489053 Wed, 09 Mar 2016 16:24:31 +0000 Mamag511 2489053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When did you buy your baby's first shoes (other than cute outfit accessory shoes. :wink: )? My dd is crawling like a maniac and I haven't needed shoes since it was winter. Now that it's spring and she'll be going outside more, I'm thinking of starting to shoe shop! Did you buy shoes for your crawling baby? Or did you wait until they were walking? </p>
