I love these moccasins for my son.  This is our second pair.  He is 15 mo and wears them everyday at daycare.  We use them as his inside slippers/shoes.  They are great for kids learning to walk, and comfortable to keep his feet a little warm/dry while running around inside.  I always use them with socks.  I think they have held up extremely well and are exactly as pictured.  The ones he has outgrown can be used as a hand me down, they have no wear.  I ordered multiple brands and debated on which ones, and ended up with these.  The photos people show with wear, must be from heavier use that I can't imagine, or use outside, which I also wouldn't imagine a soft leather like this with no sole is designed for.
