Balance bike, shoes

[Blackbear19]

I'm probably over thinking this.
DS needs new trainers. All he seems to do these days is ride the balance bike.
Is he better with runner style trainers or the canvas sort with rubber over the toes.

I keep thinking runners will be better for actually moving the bike, but the rubber toes would better for stopping.

I'd just keep the old ones for biking. They always use their toes to stop themselves!

Brings back memories of putting new shoes on DS aged 2, forgetting about the toe stop. Once down a hill in our village, and the ends were completely gone! They were cheap material trainers. Never made that mistake again...

His old ones are getting too small as well as wrecked with his bike.
