Oh yes...where do I begin?

I don't do shirts with appliques for my son, because that weird webbing on the inside of the shirt bugs him. He also asks me to cut off all the tags. so I look for clothes with the tags printed on. I wash everything and also put it in the dryer, that helps soften things (even though I would love to line dry in the summer).

My son also won't wear shoes without socks, he insists on them and you know what, I go with it. It actually works in my favor because the camp he's going to this summer requires closed toe, non slip on shoes!

it is a very common issue. olive is like that too.

i've found that most kids with shoe sensitivities like crocs though because they're so wide and comfy.

Yeah, crocs are pretty much on the out list for us as well. I don't see the appeal, really, they're totally not breathable.

Oh, yes. LO is very particular about which shoes she will wear. They're either "too big" or they "tickle." Neither of which is true. If she had her way she would be wearing a pair of brown shoes that are 2 sizes too small every day.

@mediagirl: she doesn't really like sandals. i just let her watch a short video and dress her and i can get away with it usually because she's occupied!

I was going to suggest crocs as well. My youngest sister and 2 of the kids I nanny for have had issues with certain types of clothing/shoes and love wear crocs. For a while I had a hard time getting the boy I nanny for to wear socks/shoes when the weather turned colder.

I know crocs are kinda ugly and people usually hate them, but the girl I watch has some cute Mary Jane/ballet flat style ones.

I think there's a company called Soft Clothing that was originally designed for kids with sensory sensitivities. They can be pricey but I see them on Zulily once in a while!
