We're big Robeez fans around here--I'm a firm believer in not forcing a baby who doesn't walk to wear shoes (hard-soled, at least.) There's no reason for it, and it could mess up their feet when they do try to start walking.
But I am a fan of warm feet, and sometimes, you need that extra layer that socks can't provide. I've been using Trumpette socks for Jesslyn (they're so cute!) but at some point, we're going to need something a little more substantial.
Hence the love. What I don't love, though, is the price tag. New Robeez run $30+, though you can usually find a sale and get a pair between $25 and $30. Don't get me wrong, I've NEVER paid that much for a pair. I think the most was $15 or $16 (waited for a clearance at Endless.com, then got $5 off and free overnight shipping... sadly, they no longer give that extra $5 off. But still a great site to buy shoes from!) Jeremiah definitely got our monies worth out of the pairs he wore!
Enter Bugaloo's. Same concept as Robeez (soft-soled, leather, easy to slip on and off, and super cute!) but ONLY $15! Of course, when I see $15 is the regular retail price, then I expect to be able to find it for less (and will probably wait until I do to buy...) But I just found them and wanted to share. :) Plus, 5% of your purchase will go to the International Justice Mission and help fight sex trafficking. Not bad. If you're going to shop and buy something anyways, might as well let a portion go to a good cause.
I would totally get these for a boy. So cute!
