Howdy, let’s continue our baby and kids shoes shopping tips & advice series. We’re right in the middle of summer here in Montreal and many young kids are having fun in summer camps. Since it can be quite hot here in the day time, boys sandals are absolutely must-haves for boy to keep their feet cool and comfy. While style and design are some of the most essential elements, I’ll add more to the criteria for trouble-free kids’ sandals shopping. Hope they can help parents.

Back to school shoes are a big part of the kids shoe range; it’s the number one shoe item being purchased by parents and it is also the footwear that could propel kids into the’cool club’. Ballet flats are the must have’s for girls going back to school. This year’s ballet’s offer edgy detailing and studs in a wide variety of colors and materials. Another hit on the back to school shoe range for girls are sporty versions of Mary Jane’s, which are classy and offer a bit of pizazz.

Converse trainers have rarely been fashionable, and if your child is screaming for a pair there are some great new prints available such as glitter, polka-dots and starts or hearts. For skater boys the converse are a must have and as they always seem to line the shelves season to season, they are a welcome investment.

Crocks are still in whether you are a fan or not. There are a lot more choices this season from Mary Jane’s to all-terrain. The perfect footwear for the active kids as they are breathable, comfortable and most importantly durable.

Of course kids like to look like adults wherever possible, so children’s footwear mimics the trends of adults footwear. The gladiator sandals for young girls are catching on. Although a lot more simple than the adult versions, these sandals contain straps and studs to give them a bit more jazz.
