Re: shoes after 23/7 in the DBB?

[Guest guest]

In general, if everything goes well as expected, your child can wear what every

you and he find comfortable. You can just follow the typical baby-shoe

protocol, what ever fits well and feels good for that age range. I know some

parents aim for the upper-end quality like Stride Rite, but I didn't (don't).

Partly because the Stride Rite dealer near us was the most rude store in the

world....but mostly because my kids just didn't seem to need anything special.

I do avoid stiff shoes, but I'd avoid them on a non-club foot baby too. Really

it's hard to cross this bridge until you get to it.

Sounds like you have a big Christmas ahead of you getting past the casting

phase! Nice way to start a new year!

shoes after 23/7 in the DBB?

This is premature on my part because my son won't be out of casts until

around Christmas, but I am thinking ahead. What kind of shoes can

babies wear after they graduate to wearing the shoes and bar at naps

and night?

I haven't found a sandle Everett can wear yet either but I don't know if that

is the cf or just the baby foot since toddler sandles are built so stiff anyway.

was actually 5 before I found sandles he could wear with out blistering.

I find with Kelsey that it does not matter where I get

the shoe either. It is the shoe that matters and I

have to be very picky about that. She cannot wear

shoes that have a high arch built into them so I am

always looking for shoes with a flatter construction.

Also, as a parent of a toddler, I LOATHE velcro

closures so that also gives me some headaches. Kelsey

also could not wear sandals of any kind this summer.

Everytime I tried a pair, she would get sores on her

feet. I actually have good luck for shoes at KMart

and other places such as this. ONline, I love

pedoodles.com. These shoes are fabulous and Kelsey

loves to wear them. In these I really like the fact

that it is not a big deal that her feet are two

different sizes. Also, try Baby Gap. I have a pair

of navy leather mary janes (in 2 sizes) that I found

there online. THey were on sale, so I only paid $

12.99 for each pair and they are really nice shoes.

If they came in my size, I would wear them.

I bought Grace the cutest little white leather sandals with pink

flowers on them. They were Buster Brown's and the part that covered

the top of the foot was adjustable so I thought, these will be

perfect, that's why I spent something crazy like $30 bucks for them.

She wore them just once and I saw the start of a blister, well that

was it, they got packed away quick.

If anyone does know of a brand of sandal that is comfy and dosent'

seem to cause blisters (maybe a neoprene type material), I would love

to know...would really like to find some sandals for her for next

summer!

I bought some for Kestrel one summer (a year ago?) at

Baby Gap that were neoprene and rubber and we had no

trouble with them. Also got a similar pair at Roots,

too. Maybe check them both out when the summer stuff

comes in?
