The best shoes we've ever had

My 2 year old doesn't wear shoes well and they've been holding up great for a few months now. We go to the beach often and they do a great job on sandy and wet beaches.

Pros
  • This is amazing for my 16 month old baby. They fit as expected and she can walk in them without tripping.
Cons
  • The quality is ok, as is the width (great for wide feet). however, it is VERY difficult! Will have to return.

Works little! in my opinion

My daughter once wore them to school and complained that they hurt her legs and were too small. It's just between sizes and I've ordered more but these are too tight.

Pros
  • After 2 months of intense toddler summer wear, they are still going strong.
Cons
  • Good quality shoes but too small! You must order 2 sizes up from your normal size for them to fit.

For me too little

Although the shoes appear to be comfortable, the pair is WAY small. Maybe it would make a big difference if the back strap was adjustable, but they were too tight. I have a 3 year old and I bought a size 7 (he is a size 6 but I wanted him to grow up) and they were a pain to put on. Very disappointed.

Pros
  • Ideal
Cons
  • Looks great and good quality. I will keep them for my youngest grandson as they were very small.

Open for cooling but not flexible.

This is good if you want some pretty stiff summer sandals. They are open at the sides and heel (but not at the toe). They are just as thick and inflexible as full-size running shoes from the same manufacturer. I prefer softer and more flexible children's sandals.

Pros
  • Tilly loves her new shoes. They fit perfectly and look great. They are comfortable and allow her to walk and play with ease.
Cons
  • These are nice shoes but they are uncomfortable for children, the strap digs into the skin.

Baby admitted! the best in my rating

Through trial and error, buying shoes online is not an easy task. My kid loved them after quickly giving up some of the other options due to the poor fit. They fit as expected, true to size. It's been a few weeks now and they're doing great with lots of mud, water, tree climbing, rock crawling and fort building.

Pros
  • comfort
Cons
  • The Columbia Youth Techsun Wave Closed Toe Sandals provide extra protection for your child's feet but also limit ventilation. This can make it uncomfortable to wear for long periods, especially in warm weather.

Great closed-toe sandals for active kids.

I bought these sandals for my boys who are 5 and 7 years old. They were comfortable from the first wear and have held up well throughout the summer. I love that these sandals have real rubber soles and not the "foam soles" that you see on most shoes these days. Your feet breathe well in these shoes and I haven't noticed any odor like some other sandals they've had. I plan to get the next size up for her next summer.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Little things

Nice sandals

My picky son loves these sandals! I usually find it difficult to get him to wear sandals, but that's undisputed. They are true to size, well made and comfortable. I will buy them again next year. Update 2021. I bought them for the second time after my son raised them. They held up so well last summer that we look forward to seeing them again this year! The first sandals I bought him that do not cause blisters and are very comfortable.

Pros
  • Practical
Cons
  • So far so good

Contact/Friction Injuries

I love the style of these sandals. On the advice of the reviewer, I ordered 2 sizes up. It was a risk for us because my son is more on the SM side. Well, the sandals were definitely great. However, we bought them a bit earlier, so we expected him to grow in them. The biggest issue though is that my son suffered a chafing/chafing injury on the inside of his right ankle from the sandals - simply from wearing them for about 30 minutes when we tried them on. That's the main reason I'm sending them…

Pros
  • Decent Performance
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous
