Have always loved these sandals! When a new pair broke within a week, Zappos overnighted a new pair at no charge. Love the shoes, love Zappos!

Perfect! Bought these last year for my 2 year old and they held up great so we bought them again for this summer. Very well made, and a classic look...with no velcro, yay! She wore them right out of the box and refused to take them off after a stroll around the block.

My 5 year old daughter loves these shoes! I but at least 2 colors every spring since she's been. 2. Super cute, comfortable and very well made. She learned how to buckle them herself this year!

I love these summer sandals. They are sturdy and comfortable. The leather makes them suitable for summer special occasions. I have machine washed mine without trouble. I think that the price is very reasonable.

Success! My daughter has wider toes (really, they're just the natural width that toes are supposed to be if they were never squished into pointed shoes - she is predominantly barefoot). We tried the Wide width in Jumping Jack sandals, and they were still too narrow across her toes. I ordered these as a last resort before going to Stride Rite, and they fit, and she approves! The front toe area does seem a bit long like some other reviewers mentioned, but at least her toes won't hang off the front if her foot shifts forward. Not sure I'm going to let her wear these on the beach, though, because they're too pretty to destroy! The purple color is a beautiful violet purple. These do not have arch support, though, if that's something you're looking for. I was looking for none but still with a cushioned sole, and these fit the bill!

This is the best kids sandal made. Hands down. Does everything a little girl (and her parents) want. Literally a product that makes my job easier.

Best sandals for kids! Ever! Extremely comfortable, never leave marks or rub. Can be worn in the water. Can be worn dressed up or dressed down! In love with these sandals & so is my daughter. She has worn them for the past 4 summers!

I love these shoes for my daughter, best in size and comfort since I can adjust both buckles. Very glad they are real buckles because then she can take them off.

These are so cute! I love them for our three year old daughter. The leather is a bit stiff at first but will loosen up quickly. I wish they were available in half sizes though. As the half size too big does cause the front/foot bed of the sandal to get ruined easily. I love the white inside.

The perfect sandal for my 3 year old. Very sturdy but soft and supple leather and a well cushioned sole. I think we'll be buying these every summer for many years.

This picture doesn't do them enough justice. Too cute on my two-year-old, and she loves them. She has wide feet and these are perfect for any width!

I bought these sandals for my daughter (age 1 1/2 years). I measured her feet using the size guide provided on the Hoy Shoes website. According to the size guide she was a 6. The sandals are a little big, and there is some room between her toes and the tip of the sandal, but she seems to have no problems walking and running in them. I would be hesitant to go to a smaller size. The leather is soft and they don't rub around her ankles or heel. I really like the thick rubber sole, it's flexible and has a good amount of grip so no slipping. The orange is more florescent in person, but we like it. Really good quality overall.

The perfect sandal. I buy these every year for my daughters....classic, comfortable, and inexpensive. (I am willing to pay a lot for good shoes but don't have too!) And Zappos ...well, who isn't in love with Zappos?

Very cute shoes of good quality. The shoes were 1 and maybe even 2 sizes smaller than listed. Also, not velcro. This is my second child and I have learned that buckles shoes don't work for us when kids are toddlers.

These are our go-to sandals for summer! Love them. Sizing runs a bit small and the straps really should be longer, but we keep coming back for more.

Let me start by saying that we love these sandals for our 4 yr old and we’ve been repurchasing for her since she first started walking. That being said I decided to switch it up and get her the rose gold this time instead of the brown or white that I’d always ordered in the past and the material is completely different. I like the look of them but the straps aren’t soft and she can’t buckle them herself since they’re so stiff. She says that they’re still comfortable but they haven’t been worn for more than a few minutes so I’m hoping that they’ll soften up with wear.

Very cute sandals. Leather is a bit stiff which my daughter didn’t like, it rubbed too much against her feet.

These sandals are adorable, but there were a few hiccups. We bought the turquoise patent leather with white insoles. The thick sole is more comfortable for my little one’s feet. The white insole gets dirty pretty quickly, and the patent leather starts to peel away from the leather at the buckles if the sandals are worn frequently. We ordered the rose gold in the sweetheart style, the insole is grey-ish which hides the dirt and the uppers are leather (vs. patent) which have held up much better.

Cute sandals. The colors were not as bright or vivid as I had hoped. Ultimately ended up returning because the straps left marks across my LO feet.

This is my second year purchasing these. I felt like the ankle strap on the rose gold is shorter on this pair. I can only buckle on first notch. However they are beautiful in person and I would recommend!

My four year old loves the purple color. The buckle is a little stiff for her to do on her own, but I'm guessing with wear it will become easier.
