oneangelwaiting Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I'm getting desperate here. My wee one is 14 months, she has started walking but is more of a crawler. I need shoes of some kind that a) I can get on her feet and b) will stay on. She has chubby feet and ankles and I have really struggled with getting any shoes actually on her feet. At this point I'd be willing to knit something if anyone has a link to a pattern that will work. I'm mainly looking for something to keep her feet warm while we're outside, not necessarily for walking around in. Socks just won't be enough in this winter weather. Links to specific shoes would be much appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happypamama Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Robeez might not be warm enough, but they have always stayed on all five of my babies' chubby feet. They make a boot too, but I have not tried them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilma Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 You've tried Robeez? Those were great for my people, and coupled with socks were tolerably warm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matryoshka Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 (edited) Another vote for Robeez! Loved them. :) And for warm, fuzzy shoes that stay on, I loved Soft Star Shoes... don't know if they're still in business - my kids are going to college next year! ETA: Found them! www.softstarshoes.com . The warm ones are the moccasins - they have sheepskin innersoles.

melbotoast Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Also was going to suggest Robeez/Bobux type shoes. You can find them at Target. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tap Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Robeez! I love the little boots for winter. They are warm and soft, with still having enough of a sole that they can walk a bit outside in them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wathe Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 (edited) I really likes Stonez booties for that age. They are like a weather resistant canvas overboots. They were brilliant over either thick socks or wool slippers. ETA: We used these in Canadian winter weather. They are quite popular in my area.

school17777 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Pediped were my youngest dd's shoes, once she started walking - very flexible and super cute! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdrinca Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Ditto Robeez or similar styles. The entire point of these shoes in our household is to keep socks on. When it was very cold, the little ones would stay in footed pajamas for a lot of the day. (Even up until 14 months...I'm doing my part to reinforce homeschooling stereotypes of pajamas all day.)
