Overall Rating: (5 stars)

Perfection! I love these shoes! They are made of a beautiful leather, inside and out, and have dual buckles that I find so much nicer than Velcro. They also have non-marking rubber soles for good traction. They fit my daughter's feet like a glove, and she finds them comfortable even though she has very low arches, which can often cause blisters. The bottoms are stiff at first, so I did as the manufacturer recommends, and flexed the forefoot before she wore them. These are great for school, play, or dress up. And what else can you say about Zappos.com?! They go above and beyond great service and quality. Thanks Zappos.com!

In general, I am happy enough with these shoes to keep them, because there are more positives than negatives. Aside from the extra toe guard on the front of the shoe, they are a very nice leather inside and out, and seem to be very comfortable for my daughter... even with her low arches that typically cause blisters. The soles are a nice rubber that gives good traction, and they seem to be true-to-size, and fit her very well. All said, it is still a good, classic shoe, that works well for dress up or play.

I purchased these cuties for my 1 year old son on Monday at noon and they landed on my door step on Tuesday at 11:59 am. Zappos is amazing! I needed to have these by the weekend for my son's Christening. We shopped everywhere to find handsome white shoes (that didn't look orthopedic and weren't sneakers!) to match his little white tux. These shoes are beautiful. They are classic/ traditional/ timeless. They are very well made, quality leather inside and out, non-skid/non-slip soles. They are a little stiff on the toe area as expected, but still flexible. They seem comfortable, too. My son liked them, he didn't fuss or try to remove them. He was like "Happy Feet", stomping around in his fancy new shoes. If only I could post the pictures! The shoes were perfect for his outfit and we will definitely be able to use them again for the holidays and for special outings. They do run half a size bigger, so it might be good to order down instead of up, for a good fit. We have gotten many compliments on these little shoes, and I feel like a proud mommy knowing I only buy the best in quality for my kids. My two boys are always well dressed with handsome shoes to match. It's hard to find nice quality boys clothes and shoes in our area. Thanks Zappos. Little boys grow like weeds, so we'll be back to buy more soon.

Love these shoes. I bought these shoes in navy for my 19 month old grandson and he loves them. Had to size up a 1/2 size though. These are really cute and you can\'t find these shoes anywhere in the stores so I was thrilled to find that someone is still making cute shoes for babies and toddlers. I would have liked the white ones but with fall and winter I decided to go with the navy and love them. Would definitely order these again.

I bought this shoe in pink for my three year old, and love it. It runs extremely big; she is a size 24 and we had to exchange for a 22.

My daughter has a high instep and often needs a wide shoe even though her foot is not technically wide. These shoes were able to accommodate her foot. They are dressy but have a good tread and can be worn to school.

Adorable shoes. I love the reinforced toe. I like the concept of the velcro closure so my daughter can easliy put them on herself, but I think the actualy buckle style looks better.

I experienced amazing customer service. We needed these shoes and couldn't find them anywhere. By the time we did found them, we were running out of time and Zappos got them to us. Thanks from a soon-to-be repeat customer.

These are great shoes that run pretty true to size. They are really cute and comfortable. The extra toe guard really helps as I have a little one who is a go-getter.

These are great shoes. I brought these for my granddaughter last year for school. She goes to a catholic school. Her mom brought different ones this year. She wanted her last year shoes she said. They were more comfortable. So I brought her another pair. Her mom loves the tops they keep the shoe looking great.

Disappointed - Super cute shoes. Fit my daughter very well and were perfect for school. We wear them 3 days a week. HOWEVER - The soles are coming apart at the toe and pieces have broken off. She will not be able to safely wear these much longer. I am definitely disappointed in these shoes for the price.

Finally, success in finding a quality Mary Jane shoe that fits! I have recently tried at least 6 different brands for my 4 year-old daughter, including some very expensive European brands. None fit properly; many were too narrow, although she has a medium width foot. A common complaint from her was that the other brands hurt around the ankle. I also had the requirement that it have a leather lining, and it is getting harder and harder to find shoes with leather inside and out these days! We received the Courtney from FootMates today and are thrilled to find that it fits, has plenty of growing room, and is comfortable! The padded collar goes all around the shoe so that it doesn't dig in anywhere. They seem to be cut a little lower so that it is not hitting the ankle, too. The shoe has a comfortable leather lining that is padded but also offers plenty of support. The toe box is wide and affords ample wiggle room. The lug sole gives a secure grip and doesn't detract from the looks of the shoe as I feared it would. It's a very cute shoe that will go nicely with casual outfits and dresses. I bought the black leather and it goes with everything except the dressiest of dresses. My daughter was recently measured at Stride Rite as a 9.5M, and that is what we ordered in this brand. It seems a wee bit bigger than the Stride Rites we have tried, but not so big that it is a problem. It looks fine and fits fine. Maybe not quite a half-size bigger. She will get plenty of wear out of this shoe!I hope that this shoe does not get discontinued! I will repurchase over and over!

This is the second pair that I purchased for my grandson and I\'m very pleased wtih them. My children wore them 25 yrs ago and I was so excited to find that Zappos had them, since they can no longer be find in stores. Shopping with Zappos is very easy and hassel free. I love the VIP service that I receive with the next day delivery.

True to size, my daughter wears Wide width. This shoe accommodates her foot with a high/wide toe box. Used strictly for school, so far holding up very well with little wear showing.

Reviewer:Jen D from Massachusetts

Overall Rating: (4 stars)

Pros: love the classic look, comes in wide widths, lots of colors and well made. Cons: leather takes a while to break in and there are basically no treads on the bottom of them so it's easy for a toddler to slide or slip in them on hardwood floors or smooth surfaces. Note: I do feel they run about a half size long.

If you are looking for the perfect, classic saddle shoe, these are good quality and good value. Stride Rite stopped making the classic saddle shoe and only makes the tennis shoe version.

This toddler shoe is just great. It was a great find and look even better in real life. It is very comfortable, affordable and most importantly looks really good. My son loves it and he got a lot of compliments on it. Overall I highly recommend the product.

These shoes are a classic. I have ordered them 2 years running for my daughter. They are the cutest school shoes I have found, and they look great with her uniform. She wore them all year last year, and they never wore out. You will be very pleased with the quality if you order this shoe. Thank you Zappos as they are a hard shoe to find!

These shoes are just perfect! They are made very well. The only issue I have with them is that they run a half size larger than my daughter's actual shoe size. Therefore, I would suggest you order a half size smaller then what you normally would order.

This is a great shoe that looks like an adult oxford. It does run big so you probably need to order a 1/2 size smaller than the size your son wears. I love this shoe. It\'s durable leather and looks very classy on my son.
