Walking Shoes
Does my baby need those traditional white walking shoes?
My baby is 9 months old and walking. We had her measured at Stride Rite, and she is size 3 1/2. They didn't carry any of those walking shoes in her size (at the store). My mom says that she should have those traditional white high ankle style walking shoes to start out with. Are these necessary, because I've seen lots of sneakers in her size, but not that support the ankle. Do babies really need those funny looking white shoes with the ankle support?
Im sure it is a marketing scam by stride rite haha nah but seriously I didn't put my daughter into shoes until after she could walk so it was after even 1yrs old. We did end up buying her the stride rights though because they did go over her ankles which made it harder for her to slide off & because after buying other shoes/sneakers, they seems a little less heavier.
When I would put her in other shoes she would walk like frankenstein taking huge heavy steps & it looked like she had weights connected to her legs, but the stride rites were the first pair that she wore that she actually didn't mind & didn't spend the whole time trying to tear off her feet.
