They all are so cute. I can't wait to see what they have for spring/summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1373421 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 11:37:14 +0000 MsLipGloss 1373421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: And just for grins, here are the other two pairs of sneakers (silver and berry): </p> [attach=2207/14/mzwzi3.350x350.SKR.Adalynn.Berry.jpg] [attach=2207/14/mzwzi4.350x350.SKR.Adalynn.Silver.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1373420 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 11:36:29 +0000 MsLipGloss 1373420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: Soooooo, confession time . . . I just bought the Adalynn in Red in both 3 and 4 . . . Hell, pretty sure this is the only baby I will ever have, so, that's that! But, c'mon . . . . </p> [attach=2207/14/mzwzgt.420x300.SKR.Adalynn.Red.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1373299 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 10:51:03 +0000 MsLipGloss 1373299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: The red heart sneaker isn't available anymore through the web site (it looks like maybe they've sold out of that print?. . . there are a couple of pairs around the web, but they are all full price (and then some in some cases, and I'm not familiar with some of the vendors, so, yeah . . . boooo!). I hope SKR brings it back!</p> <p>They're supposed to start wearing uniforms at around 18 months? But from what I've seen it looks more like 24 months and up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1373242 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 10:35:21 +0000 Smurfette 1373242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: I forgot that center has uniforms. When do they start wearing them? Yeah, I couldn't spend $40 on one pair for LO either. But the others are so cute. I am sure the red hearts will end up on sale. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1373232 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 10:33:04 +0000 MsLipGloss 1373232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: So, I bought both Adalynns (Silver and the Berry) in 3 and 4, and also the navy Reese in a 4 (it will go well with her uniforms when she starts wearing them). *gah* There is another shoe that I REALLY wanted (the Adalynn in red . . . hearts hearts and more hearts!), but in the couple of places I could find it it was about $40 bucks (not including shipping), which is probably too much for just a pair of cute sneakers. I digress . . . </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1372910 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 08:55:12 +0000 Smurfette 1372910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: Nope!! Especially if you know that they go with her clothes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1372898 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 08:50:12 +0000 MsLipGloss 1372898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: Is it completely silly to get the Adalynn Silver and Berry in both size 3 and 4? &gt;.&lt; </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1372880 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 08:44:06 +0000 Smurfette 1372880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: That is a good idea. </p> <p>I got the Charlotte black and silver, Evelyn pink, and Cody Hot pink. Then yesterday I ordered Evelyn navy and Devlin. I really wanted to get the Erica but I told myself she had enough.<br /> My friend has given me some size 3 shoes from her daughter, but they aren't as cute as SKR ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1372866 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 08:37:54 +0000 MsLipGloss 1372866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: Probably, but I won't! :P For a couple of reasons . . . I think they will work well for transition shoes between size 3s and 4s, and in a month or two, they will probably be an okay fit. </p> <p>I have 3 pairs of the 9-12 months . . . I have the Charlotte (again!) in grey and black patent, and the Erica (with the moon/star . . . the pink looks much better in person than what the web site shows). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1372860 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 08:35:01 +0000 Smurfette 1372860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: Do it!!! I think that I am going to be in trouble once R starts wearing shoes every day. She is getting so close to walking.<br /> Can you return the smaller 9-12? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1372856 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 08:33:25 +0000 MsLipGloss 1372856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>And when you look at the sizing, the SKR web site indicates that the 6-9 month size is comparable to the Size 3s. I didn't find that to be accurate at all! But I think I have it figured out now . . . Size 6-9 months, Size 3s, Size 9-12 months, and then Size 4s. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1372846 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 08:31:01 +0000 MsLipGloss 1372846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: I know . . . I am currently drooling over the Adalynn Silver, Berry (stars!), and Red (hearts!) sneakers. :P DH is going to keeeeeeel me . . . . I haven't bought them yet--they are still my mah shopping cart--but they are just so cute! </p> <p>Did I mention that I already bought her 3 pairs of Smaller by SKR? : / (although they are in the 9-12 month size). The 2 pairs of Size 3s I have for her I bought MONTHS ago, before I fully appreciated just how tiny her feet are! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1372828 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 08:24:37 +0000 Smurfette 1372828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: OMG, how adorable are those?? I was going to talk to you about what you did for the next size when R grows out of the 6-9 months Smaller ones.<br /> Did you see they are having another sale? Free shipping if you spend $60 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1372823 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 08:22:41 +0000 MsLipGloss 1372823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: I just put LO in her first pair of See Kai Run Size 3s this morning . . . they're definitely a little big on her, but they seem to be a better fit than the 9-12 month Smaller by See Kai Run shoes that I bought for her (which are a little bigger than the size 3s). Here is what she has on today: </p> [attach=2207/14/mzwqhu.420x300.SKR.JOVYF13GRAY_LG_2.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1368436 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 20:04:00 +0000 Smurfette 1368436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: I bought some more! 0-6 are getting right on her. Big girl wearing 6-9 soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1368417 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 19:57:37 +0000 pinkcupcake 1368417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love stride rites! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1368381 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 19:44:29 +0000 MsLipGloss 1368381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vote for Smaller by See Kai Run. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1368367 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 19:37:46 +0000 hilsy85 1368367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would definitely go to a store so your LO can try them on. My LO ended up walking the best in a pair of stride rites. I didn't get them til he was REALLY walking though. In the just starting to walk stage, I stuck to robeez. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1368342 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 19:29:20 +0000 Smurfette 1368342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the Smaller by See Kai Run. They are soft in the bottom and R is walking great in them. Well with the walker, cruising, and holding our hands. They fit her better then Robeez. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1368240 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 18:35:31 +0000 betsyboop 1368240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We also went to Nordstroms and were pointed towards Stride Rites. LO loved them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1368064 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 17:28:32 +0000 Ginabean3 1368064@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Following because my LO will need shoes soon too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1368049 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 17:19:12 +0000 Periwinkle 1368049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tidybee: Thank you! It's as if he learned how to walk overnight. Yesterday was 6-7 steps and today is halfway across the room. It's amazing how quickly these transitions take place :)</p> <p>C &amp; C will need a walking date soon :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1365255 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 18:16:43 +0000 hellobeeboston 1365255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used Robeez in the beginning which were great! Carter's also had some good soft sole shoes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1365237 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 18:10:09 +0000 mauxie 1365237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you checked out See Kai Run's Smaller line? My LO has those and Robeez Mini shoes.. I think the Smaller ones are more comfy (a bit wider). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1365031 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 16:59:39 +0000 immabeetoo 1365031@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Robeez are best I think, soft soles help them learn. We went from robeez to pedipeds after a month of confident walking. People always comment on how sure footed he is and I think it's due to robeez! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1365003 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 16:51:20 +0000 yoursilverlining 1365003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you have a Nordstrom near you? We've gotten great shoes for LO there; with soft soles for early walkers and rubber/harder soles for once they really master walking. Stride-Rite is one brand I know we like. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1364998 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 16:49:58 +0000 Tidybee 1364998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>P.S. - Go C!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1364996 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 16:49:37 +0000 Tidybee 1364996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD got a pair of "perfection" brand for her first walking shoes. We took her to a mom and pop shoe store to get fitted and the salewoman could tell how she walked in each of the different pairs and which one was best for her. Her next pair was stride rite which she has also done really well in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shoe-recommendations#post-1364922 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 16:20:04 +0000 Periwinkle 1364922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is making his way toward being a walker! He is 14.5 months old and is just now taking more than 3 steps at a time. We are excited but also terrified of the world we're about to enter :)</p> <p>He has been wearing a pair of Pedi-Peds for the past few months but I would like to get him a new pair of shoes to help him learn to walk comfortably and confidently. We have been doing a lot of barefoot walking/practicing, but I'm not sure which kind/brand/style of shoe will be best for us next. </p> <p>Shoe recommendations, please! </p>
