These shoes are adorable! I wish I had taken the advice of others on the sizing as these run at least a size too big. Will be returning and ordering a size down. Feels like very good quality shoes and my girls are excited to wear them.

I bought a pair for both my girls (2 & 4). They've been wearing them every day. They seem comfortable and durable and are adorable.

I love these shoes. These are our 2nd pair and I will continue to buy these. They are durable and great for running around at parks. They are also neutral and stylish for dress up.

The sandals are for my granddaughter, who lives in Singapore. They are the perfect shoe for the hot, humid weather there, and she can wear them right into the children's play pools found in parks - and even shopping malls. This is her second pair. Her mom loves them.

These were my daughter's "go to" shoes this summer. They are super cute. But I would recommend ordering a size down.

Very cute sandals. It is nice that they adjust at both the ankle and the toes. My daughter says they are very comfortable and she really likes the little cut-out hearts (She\'s 5).

Very nice looking sandal, ok arch support, but definitely runs large. Had to return them and will order a full size smaller.

The shoes are beautiful and look great on but the leather is hard and made a cut on my daughters foot. I so wanted her to keep and wear these shoes so I was disappointed in the fit of the straps on top.

Super cute sandals! The buckles are pretty difficult to use and the leather is pretty stiff. Because it’s so stiff, it makes it difficult to buckle at the right sizing for my daughters feet. Hoping they’ll soften up a bit with some wear.

I love this brand for summer because they can be dressed up or casual, and can get drenched without ruining the leather or buckle. My 2 year old has a high arch (aka thick feet) and must have thick ankles, too, because even when I sized up, these shoes will not buckle even on the loosest setting. She won't wear anything tight, although I do think with wear and after getting them wet, they would fit her fine. I had to veer into other brands for her to try and find something adjustable to her chunky feet:) Will try again next year.

Adorable little girl shoes! The buckle is a little on the flimsy side and I'm concerned about it breaking. Otherwise I'm happy.

The sandal fit perfect and my granddaughter loved them but after two days of my granddaughter wearing them they started to wrinkle at the tip of the sandal.

These sandals are darling. My three-year-old wanted to keep them so badly but alas they were too small. The detailing of the cut-out heart is so cute. Ultimately, we were in a pinch for time and settled with a cheaper off-brand sandal. I really wanted to keep these, though - if only they had fit!

Love these sandals but they do not fit around my daughter’s ankles. My 4 year old loves them, but they are too snug for my 2 year old. Is there an alternative that has a bigger ankle strap?

We ended up going with a different style. These felt a little too 'young' for my kid; the hearts were not very subtle. But this whole line of shoes is great.

Great looking shoe, but remember you are buckling them yourself---no velcro. Not sure if this is an issue for the child who is wearing the shoe. Unfortunately, i was looking for a shoe that would fit my daughter who has an 11.5 foot. The 12 in this shoe was too large and the 11 too small. Needless to say the shoe fit to size. Overall, though, adorable shoe that is stylish and cute. The bronze is a great color!

This is the second pair of this style sandal that I bought for my daughter. She loved the purple ones. Her only complaint is the stiffness of the leather when the sandals are new. I had her walk through a puddle per the suggestion of the company to soften the leather. It helped a little but not much. The other pair took a few wearings before they softened up.

I have a very active toddler, and wanted to get something that would last the whole summer. I also wanted to find something to fit her narrow feet. Other sandals that didn't fit well gave her blisters. These cute sandals are perfect. They fit well since you can adjust the straps, and they are good quality, and worth the investment.

Cute style, these will be great for summer. The ankle strap is a little tight on my toddler's chubby feet but I think we'll make them work.

These are adorable! Giving 4 stars because they rubbed a small blister on my baby's heel after a couple of hours of wear. We are going to try to break them in slowly, a couple of hours every few days so she'll be ready to rock them when weather is warm. Otherwise they're cute and well made. Definitely a half size larger, maybe even 3/4 size larger.

Excellent shoes that I've purchased over again for my girls, wear well and are comfortable. Only drawback are the buckles, which can be tricky for little fingers. If theses were faux buckles with velcro they would be five stars.

I ordered these and a pair of original style Saltwaters for my toddler daughter, and decided to keep the originals and return these. I thought these might be better for her feet because they had a thicker sole, but it didn't seem to make a difference when she tried them on, and I thought the other ones looked cuter. FYI- these run a half size large.
