BF needed new shoes. She's grown out of the soft sole kind and needed something with a more sturdy yet flexible sole. Of course we could have taken her to this great "Littles" store we have in Pittsburgh but MF and I like to shop together, and since we live apart...we do it on line.
Our first thought was Merrells and then Keens. Looking at the REI website we found a pair of cute Keens that looked just like the adult kind so we ordered them. Not sure if this would be a good choice I did more searching. I ended up on some site and I honestly don't remember how I got there. Click here, click there etc.
There was a blog about shoes for toddlers and one comment was, "WTF, my daughter is three years old and they are showing heels for her. What happened to those adorable little kids shoes with a rounded toe..." and on and on it went. I read the responses many whole heartedly agreeing with her comments. Then there was one person who talked about this shoe --See Kai Run-- leather and flexible. Never heard of it.
So what does any tech savvy Grammie do...a Google search. There it was See Kai Run. The most adorable kids shoes round toes, sandals, booties, in soft lined leather with a firm yet flexible sole. I could have bought BF half a dozen pairs, but used restraint and ordered two. I figured MF can see what fits best and send back what she doesn't like/need.
There are stores that carry these shoes according to the See Kai Run website in both Baltimore (Bratt Decor)and Pittsburgh (Ona Boutique in the South Hills-no website found). I could not find any shoes on the Bratt Decor website and for me...ordering on line is much easier than going down to the South Hills.
MF received the two pair and LOVED them (I purchased a purple sandal and an outrageous orange sandal!!). BF put them on and was up and away immediately. What a great find. If you folks have other great finds, let us know, we want to spread the word about See Kai Run and other exciting finds!
Now I can't wait to help buy her fall shoes and winter bootie!

I also think that Pediped flexi sole shoes are great too. As far as I know they're available in many stores. In fact they seem to be available in similar stores, such as babystyle. :) Thanks for sharing!
