Stride Rite Soft Motion Jordana Mary Jane Shoes for Baby & Toddler Girls - Comfortable First Walking Shoes for Playtime & Special Occasions

I love these "soft motion" shoes by Stride Rite. These were some of my daughter's first shoes while she was learning to walk. They were much easier for her to walk in compared to her New Balance tennis shoes (much heavier and bulky). After our experience with these, I continued to buy the "soft motion" shoes in other styles and sizes until she outgrew the largest size they carried "soft motion" shoes in.These are the perfect school shoes for my 18 month old. She fits comfortably in a size 5 - 5.5 now but I bought these in a size up so she could wear them longer. The 6 are just big enough for extended wear time but not too big where she trips over them. Stride Rite always seem very comfortable for my children and the insides don't get stinky like cheaper shoes. The colors are precious and go with most of her clothes. Overall these are a great basic for any toddler girl's wardrobe.The soft motion like is AMAZING. This did rub a blister on my daughter's foot so we have to be sure to wear socks. The leather seems high quality, but the silver accents on the toe scuff and wear down easily. Overall a good shoe for toddler's though. I wish they came in sizes larger than 6.Really cute shoes but my baby's feet were just a little too chubby for the Mary Jane style and they left a mark. Probably better if your baby has really narrow and/or not chubby feet.I love Stride Rite, as they are sturdy and quality children shoes. These can easily be dressed down or worn with nicer dresses. The sole was more flimsy than other styles, but still sturdy.Perfect shoe for a new walker. My daughter was just learning to walk when we got these shoes for her. They actually helped her out a lot since our floors are so slippery they gave her a little more traction. She also doesn't pull these shoes off all the time like she does with her socks, which is an added bonus.Sturdy, adorable, and easy for my toddler to walk in. She loves putting them on herself and they must be comfy or she wouldn't keep them onThe inside is nice and soft material while the outside is easily cleanable. They are also non slip shoes which is what I wanted.These are adorable! They are perfect for my 10 month old! She's starting to walk and loves hearing her shoes on the floor. The soles are cushioned nicely and the stitching is excellent. They are truly striderite quality and are legit brand shoes. The stitching on the outside of the shoe holding the sole on is purple. Goes really good with a purple colored outfit.Stride rite soft motion line is great for beginner walkers. My daughter was able to walk easily and the rounded soles meant she didn't trip as easily. The mary jane style also makes it easy to put on and off. Super cute too.
