Bought a pair of these sandals for my grandson last year and he enjoyed wearing them so much (they are so comfortable) that I purchased another pair for him his year!

Did order a 1/2 size bigger to make sure they’d fit & I’m glad I did. I ordered other tennies & sandals in her regular 8.5 WW but these in 9 WW. With the way the heal is cupped in the back, I’d suggest 1/2 sz bigger! The straps are perfect length too.

Love these sandals for my 16mo daughter! Just enough protection for her feet when she has to wear shoes. All the straps are velcro and seem to be holding up well. My daughter hates wearing shoes in the car and can usually manage to take these off which isn't a big deal to me but is something to keep in mind.

I like the curved sole, which is a little better fitting for my 3.5 YO kiddo. She seems to Like them and they’re cute enough in silver that they don’t look like a walking sandal.

Sandals can be tricky for my young toddler who is still unsure on her feet. She needs something sturdy but also breathable on these hot summer days. These fit the bill! The wide is great for her little feet, and the adjustable straps make sure I can get the perfect fit. Love them.

Perfect summer toddler sandal. Three strong Velcro straps makes it easy for my three year old. Cushy footbed and rugged soles to prevent slipping and easy climbing scooting and running. My daughter has wide flat feet and it’s hard to find shoes that she fits and will agree to wear. She otherwise only wears crocs or stride rite wides, maybe see Kai run. These are so cute and so comfy. Worth the price!

I've now purchased 5 pairs of these. We absolutely love them. My oldest got them at 3 and they've been great for us. They are foot shaped and flexible for small feet, but they hold up really well for daily wear. They are easy to keep clean and they go with everything. I've always bought the brown (I have 2 girls) because if the versatility. We fulltime RV and spend most of our time outdoors so they get a lot of rugged use. I will continue to stick with bare steps as long as they make them. It's so hard to find a minimal shoe for toddlers that's not super awkward looking or flat out ugly, and also will hold up to daily wear. I started my eldest at age 3 in a 7 and we have every whole size up to 10. She's now 4 and has moved up to 8. My 2 year old started in a 6 and I will be able to hand them down as she grows since they are so well made.

Got them for my 1.5 year old. The Velcro on each strap is very convenient! Very good quality. The silver pair goes well with fancier outfits and is sturdy enough to withstand all kinds of play. Love the flexibility and room for growing feet.

I bought these sandals for my 2 year old grandson, who typically doesn't like to wear footwear. These sandals fit like a glove and truly follow the shape of the foot to make walking and running a breeze. I would highly recommend these sandals and will purchase them again for next summer!

My daughter walks better in this sandals than her sneakers. They stay on well and are super easy to put on her, not to mention super cute.

I bought these shoes for my daughter. We have such a hard time finding shoes that fit her correctly and these fit amazing. I then got a pair for my son and he loves them too! They fit perfectly by the measurement guide and are very comfortable.

This sandal is one of the first we've tried for our son. They seemed comfortable right from the start. He wore them a full day with no real irritation, etc and I love the way they look. Very happy with this purchase so I also ordered another pair in the next size up for when he grows out of the first pair. < 3

I purchased these for my 3 yr old and she loves them; easy-on, easy-off, easily-adjustable. My 5 yr old is super jealous! I wish Merrell would make more sizes.

I bought these sandals for my daughter in the brown color because I like how it looks more neutral and natural, even though they are meant for boys. The shoes had soft rubber soles, and a nice wide toe box for little toes to move. The bottom had very good traction, so they can be used for walking, running, and even hiking. The straps were strong and the velcro large so it doesn't come undone easily and can be adjusted to the foot size... Which I like.The only issue I ran into was that the shoes were too big, so I exchanged them for a smaller size. Will most likely buy them again next year but I have to see how they hold up after this summer is over. However, I am pretty confident that they will hold up just fine judging by the quality.

I love the bare steps collection. My kids walk so well in them without tripping. The sandals are very nice but run small which is unusual for this brand. My baby wears a 6 in the boots and mesh water bare steps but the sandals her toes were all the way to the tip of the rubber. Great shoes but size up at least half a size.

They fit incredibly good. It’s hard to find wide sandals for my daughter since she has chubby feet. They are wide enough and can adjust to make them narrower or the opposite with the straps. I thought she had no 4 and I bought 4.5. It’s better to purchase half size up. Very satisfied!!

These sandals are the best! My 22 month old is very finicky with shoes, especially sandals, so I was a little nervous about all of the straps. Not only does she love wearing them, she can also move around like she does with sneakers. The Velcro straps make it easy to get the perfect fit. AND, they’re super cute!

My daughter just outgrew her old sandals, but there is a lot of summer left! Saw these on sale and thought I’d give them a try. I couldn’t find anything in stores and anything I found online was expensive or ugly- but these fit the bill perfectly. Nice style, quality construction, and a great fit to size. Look forward to a long summer with these shoes.

This is the perfect summer shoe for my 15 month old son. They are easy to put on, are made with quality material, and he loves walking in them. I was looking for a minimalist style shoe with a zero drop and lots of room for his developing feet! I love these! Will buy him more as he grows.
