My 2 1/2 year old LOVES these pink boots!  My goodness! She screams and cries when it is time to take them off and put them away at the end of the day.  She'd like nothing more than to wear them all day around the house, and repeatedly practice taking them on and off. These boots run true to size.  My childs foot measures an 8 1/2 and the 9 fits comfortably and will last nicely into this Fall/Winter.  High quality suede and padding. This was my first pair of shoes from the Jumping Jacks company but I think they are much higher quality  than say a Stride Rite boot.
