I bought these for my baby who was just now learning to walk.  He loves them! They are really easy to get off and on. They are really light weight and flexible. These can be worn with or without socks. Stride rite also provided a removable sole insert that has lines on it so you can check the fit! What a great idea! It's so easy to pull it out and put it on the bottom of your child's foot to make sure it fits properly. They grow so fast and  not able to tell you it's too small and you can't always see or feel their little toes in there!
