When Siah was a baby, I found the most amazing baby products were available. I have no idea if they were available when the first three were little, but I was thrilled at what I found online in 2007/2008.
One thing that I determined to do with Siah was to buy better quality items, but only what we needed. For example, I had probably 5+ pairs of shoes for my little girls and at least that many again for Jeremy. I mean, I needed those cute runners and those fancy shoes and those other fancy shoes and the little sandals and the slip on comfy shoes…and it went on and on and on.
In total, even if I bought the shoes on sale, it still added up.
I remember looking online at a pair of $40 shoes that I was considering buying for Josiah and cringing…and yet, I’m positive that I spent more than that on all the different pairs of shoes for Geli or Xani or even Jeremy….And I’m not talking all together over the first year or two…., I’m talking at one time, if I had 4 pairs of shoes that I paid $10 each for. BAM! Same price!
But, the difference was that I was only planning on getting one pair….less crap to store, they were leather…..better quality, and they were supposed to be better for their developing feet…..soft soles.
I went ahead and bought the shoes for Siah and I’m thrilled I did. I believe that I’ve spent less to shoe Josiah than I had with any of the other kids and I’ve been thrilled with the quality, style, and functionality of the shoes and the contribution to the healthy development of Siah’s feet.
I do like the Robeez brands for both the soft shoes but also the Mini-Shoez and the 1st Stepz but……..no where near as much as I love Pediped Shoes.
I LOOOOOOOVE Pediped shoes. They are by FAR my favorite baby/toddler shoes.
Just recently, Josiah received some birthday money from my parents. I figured that seeing as he’d grown out of his last pair of Pedipeds over the summer that this would be the perfect time to get another pair for the fall/winter.
I went looking at their site and as usual, there are SO MANY cute shoes to choose from.
I went looking in the sale section and found this pair in a size 12 and this pair in a size 11 and figured that I could get both if I chipped in a little to what they had given and covered the shipping. I figure that both shoes should last us for a while especially seeing as his feet measure a size 10 perfectly.
I also liked these shoes, but not as much as the first two.
I placed my order and waited for the package to arrive.
It only took a few days and when I opened the box I was excited to see the two boxes indicating the shoes that I’d ordered.
When we opened the boxes is when we discovered a problem….
Now, I’ve ordered a few times from Pediped and never had any problems before. But, this time, there was a bit of a mix up. I received the brown pair in the correct size but the box that showed the black and red size 11 shoes actually had a size 9 of the blue and white runner that I’d liked but didn’t order.
I contacted pediped by e-mail and they responded right away, like within 15 minutes. I could keep the blue pair to give away or keep and they were sending me the correct pair right away.
So, I actually got 3 pairs of shoes for the price of two and even then….the price of two was pretty good as, it was on sale.
I LOVE Pediped and will continue to buy shoes from them. Amazing Shoes, Amazing Customer Service.
Check out their sale items…..great deals.
ps. I’m not getting comp’ed anything to promote this company. I just love them and wanted to make sure that other’s knew about them too. If you need or want to get some great kids shoes, then check them out.
