FINALLY! A children's shoe that is zero drop, WIDE, flexible, AND AFFORDABLE!! I've spent so much money and time over the years buying shoes and having to return them when they don't fit or their quality is nowhere near the purchase price point. I resorted to making my kids' shoes myself (which is super fun, but time consuming, and school was a little leery of homemade shoes over mainstream looking gym shoes). I own whitins for myself, so I was over the moon when I saw they made a children's shoe. My kiddo was so happy to have shoes that fit his feet and that were flexible enough for him to move in!My only "con" for the shoes is if your kid has skinny ankles the foot opening might be pretty big on them until the shoes break in enough for you to tighten the velcro all the way. Wearing socks with the shoes filled the gap and sped up break in time. It makes for long and floppy velcro, but I don't mind that since my kid is able to put them on independently because of the generous opening.I hope whitin takes this amazing shoe and turns it into more styles and sizes—hello rain and snow boots and toddler shoes!

On our third pair because as my kid grows out of them I buy the next size. They’re nice and wide for her feet, light and flexible and not too slippery on wet surfaces. The Velcro wears out a bit but holds up better than other toddler shoes. My kid is 2 and can easily get these on and off by herself.

Muy buenos

4.0 out of 5 stars Durable toddler shoes

Lightweight and durable. Held up well for my 2 year old. Sole provides good support and traction. Good value for toddler shoes considering how well they've held up.I appreciate the wide toe box but the heel is also very wide so they were too big , I probably won't purchase again. Would work well for a wide foot.

These are great kids shoes with plenty of room for toe-splay and acceptably flexible soles. There is a little bit of padding for comfort inside, but no unnecessary stuff like arch support. The velcro and construction seems to be good quality, not cheap. By all accounts these look sturdy and I hope will have good longevity (I'll update this review later if we run into any problems but so far so good). The best thing is that they are half the price of kids shoes from bigger barefoot brands, making them accessible to the average family.Sizing seems to be essentially accurate, though maybe a smidge short on insole length. I sized up my oldest who has been consistently wearing a big kid size 3 into a 4 and that left some comfortable growing room. The size 3 was a little close on the toes for them. My 2nd child is only a 1/4" behind in foot length and should hopefully be good in a 3 for the rest of the year and I think a 4 would have been too big in their case. I have no hesitation buying the next size up when we do need it. Width-wise, the shoes are a good average-wide width. My oldest has much narrower feet than my 2nd child and slips around in wide shoes but is able to wear these without feeling loose or encumbered thanks to the double velcro straps. If I could suggest an improvement, it would be to offer more colorways. I ended up buying the navy for both children (a boy and a girl) and let them personalize with paint pens to differentiate.

These shoes have been excellent for our son. The wide toe box allows the feet to splay naturally, and the lightweight design makes them easy to move in without feeling restricted. They’re comfortable, flexible, and work well for everyday wear. A solid option for growing feet! Also super easy to clean when he gets them muddy.

These are amazing shoes. This is my third pair for my kid, and I honestly don’t want him wearing regular kids’ shoes at all. We started him off in barefoot shoes like these, and they’ve been working so well for his walking, balance, and overall comfort. The wide toe box and flexible sole really let his feet move naturally. The quality is excellent for the price—great value for money. My only wish is that they’d come out with more cute and fun color options. Other than that, we’re sticking with these for sure!
