I love discovering new brands of shoes that make soft and flexible options for babies and toddlers. Baby T recently received the Chooka Boot from Rileyroos, makers of flexible sole baby shoes, and he now wants to wear them every day! I had to hold him captive on their book shelf for photos otherwise he starts running the moment his feet hit the ground.
This comfy shoe with a soft sole gives the baby enough traction and flexibility for the ultimate comfort and safety. It's flexible enough for healthy foot development, but sturdy enough for rugged outdoor use. We absolutely love the sole design of Rileyroos shoes and they are definitely a really high quality pair. The laces on this shoe are really stretchy, so it's relatively easy to put on.
The only negative I can think of is that Rileyroos shoes only come in sizes up to 24 months, which of course isn't really a negative. I would be thrilled if they made shoes for older children, I would get some comfy soft Mary Janes for almost 5 year old Baby E. In the photos, Baby T is wearing the biggest size they offer at 18-24 months, he will be two in a month and it looks like these have enough room to fit through this fall, winter, and spring.
As you can see, the sole is really neat and has a unique design which gives that incredible flexibility toddlers need. Rileyroos has so many styles to choose from, it's so hard to pick one!
Perhaps the latest and the cutest shoes are these Mary Jane shoes that I would absolutely love to get if I had a little girl, my girl isn't so little anymore.
I highly recommend Rileyroos if you're on the quest for a flexible shoe for your pre-walker or toddler, it's the perfect shoe for learning to walk and it's great both indoors and out. The shoes are handmade of genuine leather with non-toxic dyes, made to last. The Rileyroos pricing is fairly reasonable and regular price is anywhere from $28 to $39, but guess what? The sale items section is amazing and you can get a real steal for under $20 a pair

I love the stitching and the fact that theyre leather and soft soled but grippy!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI love that their shoes are so so cute, but also functional with the soft soles! Thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteThese shoes are so cute. And hand made? Wow. I'd love to have a pair of these for my new walker. She's so cute toddling around and a pair of these would just set off her cuteness. :)
ReplyDeletei like that they are soft and look really comfortable for babies first real shoes. especially when they first start to walk, it makes it so much easier for them to get used to.
ReplyDeleteI adore the little turned up toes! They seem European to me. Just adorable!
ReplyDeleteThese shoes look really comfortable. My daughter is walking now, and doesn't usually wear shoes, but when we go out to some public places I want to protect her feet. These would be great.
ReplyDeleteI love these cute little shoes! I'm glad they're flexible and give enough traction.
ReplyDeleteI agree, those Mary Janes are so darn cute!! I would love to put those on my little girl!!
ReplyDeleteThese shoes look so comfy with the soft sole PLUS they are also super cute.

the ones you got are really cute!!! i love how comfty they look and the grippies on the bottom are great for little fast ones!
ReplyDeleteI've been eyeing the Mary Janes in mist for a while now, might just have to scoop them up soon. Love the ones your little guy is wearing too, love orange/brown together. Just perfect!
ReplyDeleteI checked out thestore and there are so many cute shoes! It was really hard to pick a favorite.
ReplyDeleteVery cute shoes from a very awesome company that is offering a fantastic giveaway!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWe have used A LOT of really terrible baby + toddler shoes! These look great! They look like they will stay on the child's feet, while providing the support they needs when playing outside. I also love how stylish they are! Thank you for bringing my attention to this brand!
ReplyDeleteThey look great. I have to agree with your wish for someone to make a good soft-soled shoe in larger sizes. My children are close in age to yours -- 4yo son & 2yo twin girls. One of the twins is tiny and would easily fit in these, but I always wish I could find similar shoes for the other two kids.
ReplyDeleteThese look fantastic. I share your wish that they came in larger sizes. I have 2 1/2 yo twin girls and a 4 yo boy. One of the girls is petite and could wear these for a while. I always wish I could find something comparable for the other 2 (because who doesn't want cute & comfy shoes?)
ReplyDeleteSounds really comfy! I agree- too bad they are only available up to size 24 mths- they are adorable shoes!
ReplyDeleteI love these shoes and really want to chugga boots
ReplyDeleteYour son's shoes are really cute! I love soft-soled baby shoes! I'm pretty sure I would pick the Mist Mary Janes if I won, because they would match my daughter's winter clothes pretty well. She is 9 months now, and already walking along furniture!

These shoes look great for early walkers.
ReplyDeleteThese shoes are so cute! They also look a lot more comfortable for babies when they are in that pre-walking stage. I would love to get a pair of these for my baby girl due in Feb.

I have never heard of these before. They look really comfortable and flexible.
ReplyDeleteThese look like great shoes for a child that is learning to walk. I like how they have rubber soles on the bottom.
ReplyDeletemy only issue with these is they don't seem to offer shoes for children with wide feet as my son does. i would love these for my newborn though who has tiny little feet.
ReplyDeleteI love this style sole! My son will be walking in the next 2 months and these would be great!
ReplyDeleteThese look like great quality. I like that you pointed out the stretchy laces. It can be so challenging getting shoes on my LO, every little bit helps!
