I looove them, and I was thinking they would look okay for boys in a baby hipster sort of way. I'm rethinking now, though. Thoughts?

Writhing in agony. I want these for LMW.
That being said, I voted YAY because I love all things red for boys! Even this faded chambray red. Almost all our baby gear (bought with our first baby who was a boy) is red!!!

I wouldn't get them for R. I would think they are boy shoes.

Ooops I accidentally voted nay (I thought you meant are they too girly and I was saying no they are cute for boys!).

I tried to order them for L on zulily but they were out in our size.

Crap I voted Nay as in "are they too girly?" But I meant to say they look like little boy shoes, sorry! So my vote is wrong

I was going to buy those for M because I think they're GN in case #2 is a boy.

We have the solids toms in red and navy for our b/g twins. Most of the time my son ends up in the red pair Totally fine!

@travellingbee: I had to order size 5, even though we're not there yet. But, I know they'll grow into them eventually!

@NorCalWayfarer: @Bao: It was creator error. I should have put the poll the same question as the title. At least now I know we're at 100% agreement that they're fine for boys.

I did the same as @Bao: and @NorCalWayfarer: So, no, not too girly. They'd look adorable on the Baby Dudes!

I love them for a boy!! I really like red shoes for boys!

@NorCalWayfarer: I did, too...I put nay to answer the question in the title, but yeah, they're ok for boys.

@Smurfette: LOL that's exactly what I thought when i saw them! They look like boy shoes.

I think they look girlier just sitting on their own- paired with a boy's outfit they'd look awesome!

I think they are absolutely adorable.
Also I'm jealous because I promised my husband I would not buy another pair of baby toms on Zulily today even though we only have one pair and I think the other twin needs a pair too.

@twodoghouse: Not to be an enabler, but . . . surely he doesn't want poor little twin #2 to have a complex, right?!? Things like this are one thing I sometimes struggle with about having twins. If I buy one of whatever item at whatever price, it doesn't seem excessive, but if I buy two it starts to seem like a lot of money.

@Smurfette: @lawbee11: Good! I think they're kind of unisex depending on the outfit they're worn with, but I started second guessing myself because a friend saw them and said, "Are those for girls? Is DH going to flip if you put the boys in girl shoes?" Ahh...the peanut gallery.

@Mrs. Blue: That's what I told him this morning! I said he'd have to explain to the one with no Toms why he/she is loved less. He didn't cave to this sort of logic! Also, he thinks they should just be fine with sharing...? Sharing toys and clothes is one thing, but shoes? I don't know. But he said we're going to make them share diapers so... Haha. I bought the first of Toms a year ago during the Zulily sale before we were even pregnant which is why we only have one pair int he first place.

I love these! I definitely think they would be great for boys. I often dress my boys in red, orange, purple etc. Although my oldest has a red and white striped shirt and has been called a girl every single time he wears it, so weird!

I love them for a boy! My husband has a red chambray shirt he wears all the time - totally ok for boys
I bought the same pair on Zulily today - figuring it is gender-neutral!

We have those in blue chambray! I think the red would be fine for a boy. I will say they didn't hold up as nicely as I'd hoped, but I did have to wash like like 4 times, so that could be it.

@twodoghouse: Ha! Ask him if he wants to share underwear and shoes with his sister! (although sharing cloth diapers does undercut my argument.) P.S. What size are the pair of Toms you have? Maybe my dudes can pass down a pair! ETA: I'll totally keep one pair in case we have another LO, but fingers crossed we won't need matching Toms in the future!
@BananaPancakes: Ughh...not good news with my rowdy little tyrants. They always get their shoes and socks filthy. I have no idea how since they are only barely starting to walk!
