My daughter has had this same style shoe in every size since she first began wearing shoes (in the brown leather with pale pink stitching). We keep coming back to it because it goes with everything and is a healthy shoe for her feet. She wore this latest size for the first time earlier this week and decided to climb a tree in them after school. Her foot got stuck between two branches and I just knew they would be ruined, but they did not even have a scratch. I am continually amazed by the durability of these shoes! The pair she had last year look brand new even after wearing them frequently to church and school. I believe they run true to size, but every pair comes with the flex fit system, which is basically an extra insole that you can add under the regular insole if the shoe is a little on the large side. As your child's foot grows, you just remove it. It is very easy. This also comes in handy when trying to see where your child's toe is hitting. I just take the insoles out, have her stand on them and I can see exactly how much room she has left. No more mashing on her toes and guessing if they fit. I cannot say enough about these shoes. Buy them! You will love them!

I purchased the shoes for my 5 year old daughter. They were too small. I wanted to exchange them. I called Zappos and was able to talk to a real person. They shipped me a bigger size, and I got it the next day! The shoes were exactly as described. In perfect condition. I would recommend Zappos to everyone. Great service, and a website that is easy to navigate! Thank you!

I bought these for my two year old daughter who is a Pediped baby. This is the first brand she wore when she first started walking and has collected over 30 pairs. The Flex style is great because of the insoles that you can add/remove to extend the life of the shoes. The shoes are very comfortable and my daughter loves wearing them.

I got two pairs of these shoes for my 3 1/2 years old and my 2 and 4 months daughters (both of them are a size 9) in 9.5. They come with an extra removable sole to give room for growth, so you end up with a shoe that will fit half a size under and over the regular size your child uses. That's great! I picked these shoes because my kids use them as their first walking shoes and the shoes from Pediped were always super comfortable, soft, flexible, breathable and resistant to scratches and normal wear. My 2 year old did not want to take them off when they arrived. Both of my daughters are very picky with their feet and they both love them. The 2 year old has wide feet but the regular size was perfect for her. They look cute too. The velcro strap is perfect for little fingers also. They don't leave marks on the floors. They are very soft, flexible, like the first walking shoes that I got them from Pediaped (but sturdier, in a good sense). And now about Zappos: the best online store I have found. The service is outstanding. The shoes arrived in a perfect package, the shoe boxes were intact, with all the wrappings and tags. I paid for express mail but I don't think that was really necessary since I just learned from my second experience with them that they shipped really fast (my second order was two pairs of Kenneth Cole girl shoes and I needed to return them because they run a little bit smaller than I expected, and Zappos sent the return next day as a compliment. I used regular mail service for those shoes and they arrive in two days anyway. The return service is impeccable! Just print the papers from your account and send them in the same box. I chose a store credit instead of the return to my card because I know I'm coming back to the store soon!

I bought these for my 3 yr old, and my 6 yr old niece. They run true to size. They wore them right off to church w/o rubbing any spots or complaining afterward. I have always had good luck with Pediped from back to the soft shoe days.

These shoes are great! They go with everything and fit my daughter's feet very well. When she outgrows one size we buy this same style in the next size up.

Great shoes! Both of my daughters have had 2 pairs of these. The insoles allowed them to wear each pair for over a year. After 9 months of wearing one pair almost constantly, a friend said to my daughter, "Oh, how cute! I love your new shoes!" They survived playground and dress-up wear without even a scratch on the leather. I love Pedipeds!

I love this shoe! I am a 1st time parent and prefer a nice quality shoe for my 15 month old daughter. This fits the bill perfectly. I especially love the extra insert which improves the fit if the shoe is slightly large. I prefer this type of classic style that truly reflects a child's shoe. I hate clothing/shoes that are 'adult-ish' or too trendy. BTW, Zappos customer services is the best!

My 3 year old asked Santa for new school shoes, so I had these under the tree on Christmas morning. One look at these and she was thrilled. It's now almost 4 months later and she still adores these shoes. They wear incredibly well. They handle 3-5 days a week of heavy playground play and you'd never know it to look at them.

These shoes looked so cute, but they were scuffed the second day my daughter wore them. They look awful. Pediped are such good shoes; I was so disappointed.

The best shoes. My 6 year old who only wants pink. Loves these. Soft sole, very flexible. You can tell she's comfortable in them. We have had them a couple months now and they still look new. Awesome!

I absolutely adore these shoes. My 5-year old's foot is sometimes hard to fit depending on the shoe, but this brand and style is definitely worth the money! I will order more in other colors. This shoe is a must have if you desire comfort and style for your little girl. My daughter enjoys wearing these to school, and hasn't complained one time.

We got these shoes about a month ago for my daughter, on the recommendation of a friend. I wish I had gotten their shoes when she first started walking. The first time she put them on, she didn't want to take them off. She and I both love the classic style, she's happy to walk long distances in them, and it's already clear that they hold up to a rough and tumble 3 year old lifestyle. As my husband said, "this is one case where you really get what you pay for."

I bought these for my 14 month daughter. There's a couple of things I really like about them, first, they're very easy to put on, even when she's squirming around. The extra insert really helps them fit her feet, and I'm not concerned about having to buy new shoes in 2 months because I bought a little larger than she needs and they still fit well. Also, there's a good velcro strap that stays put while she runs and plays, so many of her other shoes came off within minutes of putting them on, so this is a huge plus for me. She gets a million compliments on these shoes, which is good for her, bad for me - I like to get my grocery shopping done quickly, and people have been coming up to hear to tell her how cute she looks in them every where we go. I guess it's never too early to wear cute shoes.

This is our fourth pair of the same style. As soon as my daughter grows out of it, I buy her a new pair. She has wide feet so finding cute black shoes is really hard. She loves them. Especially because she can put them on herself.

My daughter loves these comfy shoes. The insert is also great. She put them on when they came in the mail & was running around the house in them! She says they are very comfortable.

This is the fourth (and probably final, I just bought the largest size) pair of red patent Isabella shoes I will buy for my daughter. We have had a long and happy relationship with this style of shoe. These are my daughter's "trademark shoes." She loves them so much that when I purchased her a pair of gold sparkly pediped ballet flats instead, just for variety's sake, she opened the box and declared "Mommy! I want my Red shoes!" - The ill-fated gold shoes went right back to Zappos and I bought another pair of Red Patent Isabellas. She (and I) love this style of shoe. It is durable, adorable for both "dressy" things and play. She wears them everywhere, and for everything (bike riding included). These shoes hold up very well and are super comfy. Only in the first pair we owned did the patent leather peel and crack a bit, but that was under pretty extreme and constant wear. I have not one complaint about this shoe. They are comfy and wearable right out of the box, and the removable insole makes for a longer wear-time. I am sad that this is her last pair (unless Pediped starts making them in bigger sizes!)

These shoes are the best! My daughter has worn these shoes every day for the last six months, and they still look like new. She loves her shiny red shoes. No problems, scuffs, or scratches on the patent leather. The red is a gorgeous color. These are her dressy shoes, walking shoes, and outside play shoes all in one. We bought these for a trip to Europe and she walked all the time in these without complaint. I would much rather buy one good pair of shoes instead of several pairs of cheap shoes. I think we'll be buying these again in the next size. They are so much better than the stiff dressy shoes I've seen for kids in other brands.
