👶 Merrell Baby Boy's Bare-Steps Hiker for Toddlers Review

Great shoe for my little hiker. After looking for hiking shoes for my 4 year old I felt smitten. was more than impressed with them. They have amazing traction so she can climb rocks with her older siblings and not slip in the wet areas of our hikes. Now she takes these shoes mainly for all outdoor games. She says they are very comfortable and she can easily put them on. I haven't tested it for waterproofness yet, so I'm giving it 4 stars.

I bought 2 pairs (one pair for my daughter and son... both are 2.5 years old). These shoes are adorable and perfect for PNW weather and kid hikes. I noticed that their regular shoes had no grip on the sole of the shoe, which made it easier for them to slip while walking, running, or playing on gravel/muddy trails. They're also waterproof for the occasional puddle or rain. I still use their wellies for rain but for wet ground...these boots are perfect!

I love it! We are always looking for more minimalistic and flexible shoes for my 3 year old son and they are great. I was concerned about the height of the shoe but that's not an issue and ends up offering more protection. My son has always liked them, he never complains of any discomfort and they seem to offer plenty of room in the sock which is a plus too! We are for shoes and clothing that simply work with you, are hardly noticeable and do not interfere with any activity. Overall very happy…

My feelings are mixed. They seem to fit my wide footed 2.5 year old well enough that he seems less awkward in them than other shoes, but he doesn't seem to like them at all. He's really trying to get rid of her. Maybe he just doesn't like heels, but he has poor ankle stability, so maybe they'll improve his stride and balance. I wish I knew if they really are uncomfortable, but he's too young to tell the truth and they leave no trace of discomfort. My main gripe is that one of the pieces of…

These shoes fit my baby's wide feet perfectly! They are surprisingly easy to put on despite being large. The flexible sole allows my child to walk naturally. Some reviews have described poor water resistance, but that's not our experience. We live in PNW and this shoe has seen heavy rain and puddles. Feet haven't gotten wet yet. Thank you Merrell for a great pair of shoes!
