I bought these in tan as a first pair of shoes for my 9-month-old daughter and am pretty pleased with them. I bought them in a size too large (there's about 1/2" extra room inside the shoe right now), but the elastic ankle still keeps them snugly on her feet through most typical activities. The fur lining is very soft and she appears to be comfortable and warm in them.  The only drawback is that they do get dirty quickly because of the suede-like material.  A few chewings from my daughter when I wasn't looking turned the edges blue-gray.  I washed them as Robeez suggests -- put in the washer on a cold cycle, partially dry in the dryer and then lay flat to finish drying -- and they washed up pretty well.  They kept their shape for the most part (slightly looser around the ankles) and the fur came out nice and fluffy.  The suede is no longer as soft and smooth, and although the individual discolored areas washed clean, the material looks a little dingy overall now.  Still, they are warm, sturdy, and look cute with all of her outfits, so I think we'll be wearing these all winter and buying more Robeez in the spring.
