Tje mesh ones. Man, I just saw them in perfect.condition at the.goodwill too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-shoes-for-early-walkers#post-784623 Wed, 15 May 2013 22:58:59 +0000 Weagle 784623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tysonja: We have the opposite problem. LO's feet are super narrow. Robeez and Keds are the only shoes that actually fit somewhat correctly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-shoes-for-early-walkers#post-784622 Wed, 15 May 2013 22:58:57 +0000 T-Mom 784622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We buy the Speedo mesh water shoes from target. My DD really did not like her natives ( but saved them for DS so hope he likes them) since they can be slippery if not a perfect fit. and she has also had a pair from lands end. the mesh water shoes get smelly though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-shoes-for-early-walkers#post-784610 Wed, 15 May 2013 22:45:16 +0000 tysonja 784610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with the natives knock offs at old navy. LO has a cute red pair, but unfortunately I can't get his chubby feet into them. Sigh.... He's one next week and has never worn a pair of shoes/sandals because none fit. </p> <p>Hope you find some good ones! </p> <p>The shoes mentioned above don't really have a super flexible sole though, so not sure if that would be an issue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-shoes-for-early-walkers#post-784497 Wed, 15 May 2013 21:19:31 +0000 woodentulip 784497@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with Mrs Bee, but we have had trouble with them staying on our LOs feet while walking! Try them on first!</p> <p>We ended up ordering water shoes from Lands End--they are like sneakers. Unfortunately, the smallest size we could get was a 5...buuuut I can do up the toggle tight so they will stay on! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-shoes-for-early-walkers#post-784486 Wed, 15 May 2013 21:13:28 +0000 Weagle 784486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: That's where I saw those! I'll swing by ON tomorrow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-shoes-for-early-walkers#post-784483 Wed, 15 May 2013 21:11:37 +0000 Mrs. Bee 784483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>natives are really great. we got ones like natives from gap. old navy carries them too. i vastly prefer them to shoes made of fabric because they dry easily. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-shoes-for-early-walkers#post-784458 Wed, 15 May 2013 20:53:59 +0000 Weagle 784458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What water shoes do you have for your LO? I want something that covers her whole foot because she still likes to crawl around a lot too. Oh, and I really don't want to drop a lot of cash, unless saltwater sandals are really worth it. </p>
