SAME question. DD has very wide "apple" feet at 1.5 and the natives leave little dots on her foot - even the style that Natives claims is best for wide feet. She also really protests when I put them on and she doesn't for any other of her shoes.

We got a pair of the stride rite wide size water proof sneakers that are cute and seem to fit well and also got a pair of water shoes (iPlay) for the splash pad.

While I love the pair of Natives I have for DS, they seem like they may be a little narrow on his pudgy feet. When I take them off he has the little circles imprinted on his feet. I think the size is the right length as I can't feel his toe in the end of the shoe. Are there any similar style shoes that come in a wider width?
