My son, like so many of your children, wears a uniform to school. This means that he needs both playclothes as well as his uniform clothes. We need to have 2 wardrobes, but that doesn’t mean that we want to spend money like we are Donald Trump. You want the best for your child or children, but you don’t need to break the bank to get them what they want and need for school. You can save a lot of money by shopping at Stride Rite and picking up the new shoes you need, the styles you want, at prices you can afford to pay.
My boy needs brown shoes for school, and these Merrels fit the bill perfectly- they are also slip on (which saves much-needed time in the morning) and easy to clean. They are good in all sorts of weather, and they can easily dress up or down, which is something that I personally love about them. It’s like getting two shoes in one- and with how fast kids grow, it’s just one less thing you need to spend money on. Super durable, these are cute and easy to wear.
Here is a bit more info on the shoes-
“Casual, comfy and ready for anything, the Jungle Moc will easily become your child’s favorite. And, not just because they slip on easily and feel as comfortable their favorite slippers. Or because they have a great sole that grips when they need to. But because whether they are headed to school, a party or just running errands, these shoes are up to the task and will last until you have to insist on a new pair.”
I don’t let him run around in his school shoes after school- I want to keep them in decent condition. He loves superheros, like many boys his age. Stride Rite offers may options and styles in superhero wear- my son’s choice being Spiderman sneakers. He loves these, and they are really adorable in mom’s opinion as well. Again, they are easy to get on (I really hate the literal foot-dragging when you are trying to get out the door, and anything to save time and whining is a plus in my book) which we both like. They go well with most of his clothes, and his friends have actually given him compliments like “cool shoes!” which for 6 and 7 year olds is saying quite a bit.
A bit more info on the shoes-
“Oh what a tangled web! As real as his favorite character on the front of this Marvel by Stride Rite Spider-Man shoe. Featuring mesh linings for comfort and breathability and a lightweight, flexible outsole. Plus, a super fun Spider-Man mask on the alternative closure for easy on/off wear.”
I would for sure buy from Stride Rite- they have stores as well as online shopping available. I like that there are options, but I think I would tend to buy online as long as I know my son’s current shoe size. For those times that they just keep growing and growing and you would really like to get a measurement, find a store near you and head on over. Get what you need, as well as what they want. Everyone is happy! Go on, get your shop on. Visit striderite.com for more.

He looks thrilled with his new shoes! I’ve shopped at Stride Rite a ton for my little kids. We’ve always had a great experience.
You know I never thought to buy these shoes for my boys. I always look at girl shoes but these boy shoes are awesome. They will love them.
These shoes are absolutely adorable, my son would love these.
