[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm looking to buy shoes for DC who will be walking soon.  Stride Rite seems to be super popular but I'm on the fence about spending $40 on a pair of shoes that DC will likely grow out of very soon.  Worth the splurge?  Different brand suggestions?  [/quote]

We used Stride Rites a lot until age 4 and felt they offered great support, comfort and sizes for toddlers.  They have 50% off promotions a few times a year plus you earn $10 off with each one or two pair you buy so you keep coming back and then are buying ahead for $15-25 each pair.

Unfortunately SR is going online only and shuttering stores across the country, even the Montgomery Mall one.

In general getting a good pair of kids' sneakers or comfy shoes will retail $40 a pair, and go on sale or on eBay for $20. We used stride rite from size 4 (walking at 11 mos) onward with a mix of sneakers from zappos, sales at nordstroms, etc. By age 3+ the older kid played so hard outside and sat in W that she'd wear out whatever shoe she was wearing - Nike, Saucony, SR, boots, etc.

Enjoy those little shoes and feet![/quote]
