We live in snowy climate so he does need some warm boots;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-430108 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 20:08:15 +0000 banana 430108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$50. My son has wide, chubby feet so it's hard to find shoes that fit. So we just buy whatever fit his feet, and they're not always on sale. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-430059 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 19:09:06 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 430059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I said $30 because they outgrow them so fast! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-430056 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 19:05:14 +0000 chopsuey 430056@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think 50.<br /> I bought a pair of uggs for I forget how much.. 125 or 150. Couldn't justify letting her keep them :D so I had her wear them for our family Christmas pic (taken at home) and sent them back :D heh </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-430052 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 19:01:42 +0000 luckypenny 430052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lovejoy: I love them on boys too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429762 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:49:01 +0000 Mrs. Bee 429762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: i got the emus in a size 8 i think. charlie flew through size 5-7 in one summer when he was 1 1/2! then it slows down for a while and he's been 8 for quite some time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429728 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:35:37 +0000 rachiecakes 429728@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: Emu Little Creatures are my favorite! I'm trying to wait until he's actually walking to get the shark boots because I know he'll be out of the infant size in a second, but I may cave for Christmas! He already has the classic style and the alligator mocs. </p> <p>I voted $50. I bought three pairs of L.A.M.B. crib shoes when I was pregnant. He also has Vans, Chuck Taylor and New Balance Sneakers and dress shoes from Janie &amp; Jack. What can I say? I'm a shoe girl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429717 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:32:33 +0000 luckypenny 429717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: ahhh! Thanks for the heads up :) I want that wooden camera too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429712 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:30:36 +0000 shopaholic 429712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh! Those Freshly Picked moccasins are SO.FREAKIN.CUTE! I would spend the $51 for it on Brickyard Buffalo for it today if I knew what size Baby Shopaholic would be by the time she could walk! I voted $50, but honestly I would probably spend around $20-$30 for most shoes, with only a couple of special ones more than that (i.e. Hunters, Minnetonkas, Toms, Saltwater Sandals, Uggs, Sorels). And probably the older LO gets, the more you'd have to spend for quality and good-fitting shoes. To date, the most I've spent on shoes for baby include: $20 for EMUs (approx. 1 y/o size), $25 for Stuart Weitzman mary-janes (approx. 1 y/o size), and $25 for a pair of red Hunter Wellies I found at Nordstrom Rack (probably 2 or 3 years old size). For non-walking yet size shoes, less than $20, but we've gotten a few nice pairs as gifts already (SW's and Vans). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429687 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:21:21 +0000 sarac 429687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I put $30 for now when she's still growing so quickly and gets everything filthy. Mostly, I try to thrift new/mostly new high quality brands for cheap. Two pairs of Pedoodles in the last month for $12 each - those are my best finds yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429643 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:07:34 +0000 T-Mom 429643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think the most I ever spent was on a pair of Lelli Kelli shoes for DD (on sale). You have to kind of up your budget as they get older since the shoes get pricier. For DS, I would never spend more than $35 for something I just could not live without, but it would hurt me to do that since they grow so quickly at the toddler age. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429639 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:06:18 +0000 Mrs. Lovejoy 429639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@luckypenny: @Mrs. Bee: The Freshly Picked mocs are the shoes I was thinking of when you posted this! I had them on my Christmas list for our May baby, but DH isn't approving of them since he knows they won't fit the babe for very long. He also doesn't know if he can picture a little boy wearing them. But I think they are so adorable on both boys and girls!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429628 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:00:53 +0000 SAHM0811 429628@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have spent $80 - $90 on toddler Uggs in the past... uh, never again!! I also bought DD really good snow shoes by Ecco for about $75. This was 3 years ago.</p> <p>These days, I spend about $50/pair max... I do love though that DDs can share everything! Perk of having two girls... I feel like everything's half off, in a way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429584 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 14:42:18 +0000 Sweet T 429584@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Normally, I would say $30 to $40 but we just bought DS some Stride Rite tennis shoes and they ended up being $48.95 before tax. I was a little shocked! That's what I get for not looking at the price tag! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429581 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 14:41:12 +0000 Mrs. Bee 429581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@luckypenny: they are on sale today for $51 on a new flash sale site called brickyard buffalo that i was going to blog about today!</p> <p>i really wanted them too.... but since i already bought a pair of minnetonkas, i resisted. i did however, buy a wood camera that's also on sale today! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429554 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 14:31:55 +0000 luckypenny 429554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted $75 because I really want to get her these gold moccasins by Freshly Picked an after shipping and taxes they will prob be 75 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429508 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 14:13:10 +0000 cyndistar3 429508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would spend perhaps 30-40 on snow boots but that's about it... however my sister has a Jordan obsession and lo has about 5 or 6 pairs of them, none of them cost less than $65 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429458 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:50:22 +0000 heffalump 429458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought my answer would be $25 but I had so much trouble finding soft sole shoes that fit her huge feet that it ended up being $40 on Toms. They're gender neutral at least so if we have a boy next he'll be wearing them too, and she's been in them for awhile now so she's gotten a lot of use out of them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429427 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:37:56 +0000 HLK208 429427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe $50...most of the time their shoes are $20-35 though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-you-would-spend-on-a-pair-of-shoes-for-your-lo#post-429423 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:36:03 +0000 Bao 429423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably only $30!

I don't think I would spend that much on shoes again! The max I would spend now would probably be $50, but preferably cheaper. </p> <p>I just bought a pair of Hunter Wellies for Charlie (new but half off on my listserv, so $25) and they're yellow so both Charlie and Olive can wear them. I think I am more thrifty now that I have two kids! </p>
