New shoes

Posted on March 7, 2011September 15, 2015 by jenny

Edward was lucky to be sent some lovely Pre Shoes to try. Edward loves them and has worn them every day since they arrived because they stay on his feet!

At 11 months Edward has as many pairs of shoes as I do but he’s worn very few on them more than once, usually because they don’t stay on his feet. The pre shoes however are a firm favourite.

Most importantly they are comfortable. They are made of soft leather with an anti-slip suede sole.

Secondly they stay on. They are a simple slip on (hooray, no laces or buckles) and the elasticated band means they stay on even when Edward is on the move. They are also quite roomy so will last while your child’s feet are growing.

Thirdly they are practical and can be worn indoors or outside. They are so comfortable they can easily be worn all day.

They also wipe clean if you are a mucky 11 month old and spill your dinner on them!

They come in lots of funky designs (boyish, girlish and neutral). We were sent the sporty trainers design which look just like the real thing but are perfect for little feet.

    Thank you. Will definitely get them. Just deciding on a design….
    And seems a waste to get 6-12 months when he’s already nearly 9, so I may have to get 12-18 months and hope he fits into them soon. Sleepsuits are 9-12 months so he shoul do. He’s been weight bearing for ages so I think he’ll be an early walker so these would be ideal.

    Love them! x

    I’ve now read 2 more great reviews on pre-shoes and have finally decided and ordered the tractor ones xxx
    Can’t wait for them to arrive and see if Aaron likes them as much as I know I am going to.
