Topic: Baby shoes! Posted: 15 July 2010 at 9:55am |
Just wondering if anyone can recommend baby shoes that actually stay on?? Jarvi has a few pairs but he pulls them off or they just fall off even though they fit him

I only have issues with socks, lol. His shoes- bobux, stay on fine, but socks he loves to pull off! DH tucks Aidens pants into his socks so they stay on better but he looks like a nerd!

easy - dont put shoes on him... they dont need shoes at that age and if you get poor fitting footwear it can affect their feet as the bones are very soft and still developing right up till they are quite a bit older... neither of my boys wore shoes till they were 2.

Yeah we didn't use shoes at that age either. It wasn't until he was walking properly he got "shoes". We did have these slip on leather "shoes" that were totally soft and had no sole whatsoever and they stayed on fine.

Yeah jarvi is nearly walking and want to know ahead what shoes to buy so they stay on.. Waste of money spending $50 on good leather shoes that he can just pull off! Ive found tip toey joey shoes.. they look quite good!

I just LOVE Bobux! DD was always pulling her socks and booties off, got a couple pairs of these and problem solved, they hold her socks on, keep her feet warm and look cute too! Love the bobux boots especially, they are more like soft moccasins than shoes really, stay on really well and go right over pants and socks  We go ours used on trademe there are some great deals to be had...

For anyone in Auckland, the Bobux outlet store is awesome, we got DS's shoes for $15 a pair.

you are probably better off with no shoes instead of spending $50 on shoes that wont last a year.

the bobux 'shoes' at that age are great, if you get them from the outlet shop even better. Plus they have a good resale value on places like TM.
Our boys are walkers now (2) and I've found that their Nike's stay put. Probably helps that they love them though

Bizzy - if your boys didn't wear shoes until they were two what did they wear outside once they were walking? Genuine question
