These work great for my 13 mo son. He has very chubby feet and the wides fit really well, and easy to walk with even for a beginner walker.
My son did not experience any rubbing by the Velcro like the other reviewer mentioned. The tongue of the shoe is definitely long enough to protect the foot from the Velcro, goes about 1/3 inch beyond the Velcro.

Pros:
Super easy to wear, even for the squirmiest of the babies.
The front of the shoe (where the toes are) is slightly rounded upwards. Minimizes the falls drastically!
The rubber in front of the toes gives them much more durability.
The sole is soft enough for comfortable walking.
The shoe fabric is soft and comfortable.
Pretty.

Just to note, before switching to these shoes the baby should learn to walk in a soft sole shoes or barefoot (good for the feet development). We switched to these shoes about 5-7 weeks after our son started walking, and was steady on his feet.
