Children's first shoes

3 replies

Hi all,

My 13 month old has been walking for about 5/6 weeks now and we'd like to get him his first pair of shoes now he has the hang of things.

I'm aware this is probably a stupid question but I'd appreciate your help!

What type of shoes do I go for? We are going to get him measured at Clark's, but do we buy hard soled shoes? Or "cruisers" (what even are cruisers!?)

Help!

You still need fairly flexible ones- like their pre walkers (even though theyre walking). Best bet is go in and speak to someone.

Dd is in a similar position so we went in last week and they were really helpful about what to get and what not to get.

They will be able to help you choose in Clark’s. The first walkers are good. Not too soft but flexible enough for beginner walkers! 😊
