Review on Merrell Kid's Bare Steps H2O Water Shoe: Ultimate Protection and Comfort for Your Child's Water Adventures by Bob Schultz

These shoes are fantastic. We've tried every brand of booty, every size and width available and nothing has worked. Our son doesn't have very wide feet, but at 16 months he still has a lot of love handles on the back of his foot so it felt like we had to put on every shoe. Shoes would be too long but very tight and would leave marks on the feet. I was hesitant to try these because they're supposed to be water shoes, but I was desperate for something that would work and be comfortable for him. They look and feel like regular tennis shoes. They arrived today and I knew right away they were perfect. The top opens fully, allowing the entire foot to slide in without resistance, and you can adjust the Velcro on the top if needed. I just wish they came in different color options so I can buy a second pair. These will be our shoes when he grows up.
