She needed a new pair of sneakers anyway, and she's thrilled to have running shoes like Mommy (her exact words). They are Surprize by Stride Rite. </p> [attach=2564/16/obirjf.600x450.image.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2600021 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 21:25:02 +0000 littlebug 2600021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Got A a pair of super cute hand-made moccs from a local IG shop. I also got her a pair of Pediped originals and D a pair of Pediped sneakers from the Pediped outlet. Will get D a pair of nicer shoes, as well. I usually pick those up at Target or Children's Place. And he keeps asking for a red pair of shoes, so I *might* get him a pair of red converse. Only if I can find a GREAT deal... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2600010 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 21:03:50 +0000 farawayyama 2600010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a couple of pairs of See Kai Run shoes I got on deep discount (about $15 each) - One sneaker and one silver t-strap. I will also need to get a pair of boots. </p> <p>Winters here are long and cold. We dress for cooler weather for a good 7 months of the year (and the rest is stinking hot) so we will likely go through another size by the time winter is over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2599957 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 18:21:29 +0000 mrsjazz 2599957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: ooh I love those black boots.</p> <p>We have to buy all new shoes because she grew a size.

We've bought them 3 years in a row. The pink one is sold out via Nordstrom's anniversary sale but they have them on diapers.com. We've always bought silver bc they are easy to match but this year she really really wants pink so that's what we got her - crazy pink but she really loves them </p> [attach=429/16/obif12.337x600.image.png] [attach=429/16/obif13.337x600.image.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2599943 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 16:33:42 +0000 anonysquire 2599943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am changing my first answer. I went to old navy last night and bought all their boots in my daughters size and then the black ones in my sons size. Can't wait for fall!!! We still need some cute church shoes and some slip on tennies for my son. And snow boots for both </p> [attach=1857/16/obibw6.338x600.image.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2599871 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 12:23:40 +0000 lamariniere 2599871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sandy: the pic didn't load when I looked at this thread earlier. E would flip out for these! I'm going to see if I can find some. :grin: @Foodnerd81: maybe you should get the same ones. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2599810 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 09:57:04 +0000 gingerbebe 2599810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS has wide feet so we always stock up a few sizes ahead whenever there's a Stride Rite sale or when I have rewards. He usually gets 2 pairs of sneakers in each size (one for each car). This fall he has some Saucony and Stride Rite sneakers. Always Velcro strap. But DS is only 23 months. </p> <p>It stays hot here until October so he can wear his current closed toe sandals (I bought them a size up for the summer) and at Christmas we will probably ask Grandma for rain boots for the winter. LO2 will just wear his brother's hand me down Zutano booties. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2599769 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 07:55:20 +0000 Foodnerd81 2599769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: I almost bought DD1 a cute out of SKR sneakers on prime day but when I showed them to her she said she wants sparkly sneakers. And I was like, you know even on sale, if she won't wear them because they aren't sparkly, it's not a good deal. So I'll just wait until she needs the next size and let her pick some pink sparkly thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2599766 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 07:41:47 +0000 Foodnerd81 2599766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: I usually put socks with leggings and Mary Janes- tights are cuter but I feel like they are more slippery and we take shoes off inside. But we do both really. I just try to put the cuter socks on those days. </p> <p>I'm not sure what shoes still fit but I imagine she will need new sneakers, comfy Mary Jane type shoes, and winter boots. my sister already got her a pair of sparkly cowboy boots so I think we are set in the "totally impractical but she will love them" department. 😆 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2599750 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 07:01:51 +0000 lamariniere 2599750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought some Adidas Velcro sneakers for DS today. He picked them out. I'm glad he picked Velcro because he still doesn't know how to tie his shoes and he starts elementary in just a few weeks!</p> <p>No idea what we will get for DD yet. If I let her pick, I'm sure they will be pink. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2599746 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 06:57:31 +0000 fancyfunction 2599746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: I wish I did.

She absolutely loves her current ones, but the company no longer makes it. In fact, the whole company looks like they changed their style completely, even their logo has changed :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2599740 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 06:11:53 +0000 looch 2599740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@fancyfunction: I am having a difficult time finding something like that for my son, a dressier sneaker...do you have any brand ideas that might work? I tried Geox, but they're still very athletic looking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2598739 Thu, 04 Aug 2016 15:11:12 +0000 caterw 2598739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: I usually get riding style or ankle boots from Target- this year I have my eye on some brown boots with a fox face on the toes from Carters. Uggs would be super cute too!!!</p> <p>I tend to put sweater tights with dresses if DD wears Mary Janes, but if she wears leggings I put her socks on under her pants so it doesn't look crazy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2598690 Thu, 04 Aug 2016 14:48:05 +0000 youboots 2598690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got T her first pair of Hunters.

They can't wear nice shoes to school, so hoping her ones from last year still fit for the 1-2 times she'll wear them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2598615 Thu, 04 Aug 2016 13:55:39 +0000 Mrs. Lion 2598615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bumping this because I am hunting for new shoes for my girl! What kinds of boots do you buy for a toddler? Are the Ugg style boots practical for wearing all day at daycare? </p> <p>Also, do you put socks on with those adorable mary janes? We will probably do leggings and dresses all winter...do socks look funny?</p> <p>I swear dressing my boy was so much easier! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2593980 Wed, 27 Jul 2016 19:55:37 +0000 Anagram 2593980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO will need a pair of boots, mary-janes or t-straps in black and brown, and a pair of tennis shoes. But I prefer really plain sneakers, in a solid color like navy or khaki, and those can be hard to find. We found some cute gray ones from the boys' section at Stride Rite last year, but haven't found anything we like this year.</p> <p>LO2 has tons of LO1s hand me down shoes to pick from. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2593899 Wed, 27 Jul 2016 16:36:03 +0000 caterw 2593899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD1 will get a pair of sneakers, a pair of riding-style boots to wear with her dresses, and a pair of dressy shoes. She has her eye on a pair of pink Vans with Andy Warhol bananas on them, which aren't the most practical sneakers but they are darn cute. She already has a pair of sized-up rainboots that double as snow boots with extra socks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2593880 Wed, 27 Jul 2016 15:43:20 +0000 808love 2593880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sandy: LO lived in those mary janes (different color) from Stride Rite during her toddler years. I kept buying the same ones again and again bc they were so awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2593785 Wed, 27 Jul 2016 14:05:42 +0000 rattles 2593785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought them sneakers when a local Stride Rite went out of business, and I bought Livie and Luca and SKR Mary Janes on Prime day. That should hold them through the fall. I'd like to get DD1 boots, but I'm not convinced they're necessary even in the winter down here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2593777 Wed, 27 Jul 2016 13:54:36 +0000 LuLu Mom 2593777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD1: I already bought her a pair of NIke tennis shoes on sale, so I'll get her some ankle booties, some skip on canvas shoes for daycare, and winter boots when the time comes. She lived in her ankle boots last year so I think that should do it. </p> <p>DD2: she has some hand-me-down Nikes from her sister and i'll get her some Mary jane's for every day wear. </p> <p>My goal is to not go over board with shoes, they each need 3 pairs tops. Tennis shoes, nice shoes, causal shoes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-shoes-are-you-buying-lo-for-this-fall#post-2593610 Wed, 27 Jul 2016 11:51:33 +0000 anonysquire 2593610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>These in brown and black. Probably some boots and some ankle booties. I don't like the look of tennis shoes on my daughter. I also bought a pair of t strap clogs in a couple sizes this summer so she could wear them with socks this fall. I tend to go crazy with shoes. But they make such cute shoes for kids!!! </p> [attach=1857/16/oazg5x.338x600.image.png]
