Boots or toddler sandals aren’t always in season, and unless your tot has an exceptionally full social life he won’t need fancier footwear all that often. Some things to keep in mind when shopping for the best sneakers for your toddler:Think safety (his) and sanity (yours). Lace-up shoes can be tricky — if they come untied your tot can trip. While double-knotting the laces can help prevent that, of course, remember that you and your tot’s caregivers will be the ones tying up those laces for the next four or five years. So make it easier on yourself and opt for Velcro closures when you’re buying toddler sneakers. Another plus to Velcro: As your tot takes steps toward learning to stand on his own two feet, he’ll be looking to show off his toddler independence by beginning to put on and take off his shoes by himself. The downside: If your sweetie likes to take his shoes off a lot (no matter the weather or place), double-knotted laces may be a better choice, at least until he’s past the feet-baring stage.
Go for some flexibility. The best sneakers for toddlers should bend easily. Since your child will wear them for stretches at a time, a too-stiff shoe can be uncomfortable, hard for your tot to toddle in, and even interfere with proper foot development by not allowing the foot to bend and move naturally.Look for shoes that have textured soles so they’re less likely to be slippery. But steer clear of too-deeply grooved soles when buying toddler shoes, as they can catch on uneven surfaces and trip up your child.Don’t obsess over ankle support. Years ago a baby’s first shoes were always high-tops — you’ve probably seen bronzed versions of such shoes at, say, your grandmother’s house. The thinking was, brand-new walkers needed footwear that stabilized their wobbly ankles for walking safety purposes. But high-tops aren’t necessarily the best sneakers for toddlers. If you see a high-topped sneaker that meets the other requirements, however, and the ankle-hugging part isn’t stiff or tight, there’s no reason not to buy them.
Don’t break the bank when you’re buying toddler sneakers. Toddlers’ tootsies grow at breakneck speed. They grow so fast, in fact, that they should be measured every two to three months until age two. That means you may be replacing your tot’s footwear frequently. Buying toddler sneakers every few months can get expensive, so put your foot down: Don’t feel you have to outfit your child’s feet in high-end footwear. Shoes from big-box department stores can be just as fine as those from pricier places.Reach for The Sky(Top) Though scaled down, the distinctive Skytop for kids still towers over its peers. The collar and tongue contain a comfortable, padded mesh lining that provides a snug fit. The authentic vulcanized sole gives a distinguished and classic look.
