Without socks, my little one got red blisters on the inside of both feet where the straps were rubbing against her skin. The socks served their purpose and are otherwise adorable.

We love gay shoes. This was to be our 6th pair for our 2 year old. Our daughter runs and plays a lot so after a month of use we hand washed her denim shoes like any other pair. Not only were they faded, but the dirt seemed to hide their wear. I expected them to last a few months like all the others we had. Really disappointed.

Overall I love the Pediped brand and it's the only shoe we buy more. However, only four stars because the flap over the bow has a very narrow Velcro strip. My daughter has a foot with a fairly high arch which means that while she is still that length she has outgrown the length of the strap. Many other models have longer Velcro straps that offer a little more space.

These are the cutest shoes! Over the years we've bought quite a few gay shoes for my daughters and son. I needed wider shoes for my 1 year old. After speaking to customer service on the pediped website I was told that this is the widest style they carry for girls. My 4 year old has a matching pair, medium width feet and loves them. So they're not too wide for the average foot and I was skeptical. My 1 year old needed 2 different sizes. I wanted something cute and I liked that it would match her
