Although these are very cute shoes, they have a number of drawbacks that lead me to not recommend them. The first is that the velco strap makes them hard to get on little ones who do not want to hold still for long. This is also partly due to the fact that I ordered these in my 12 month old's exact size--maybe if I had ordered a size up it would be easier. The strap does not stretch at all though, so if they fit perfectly then you have to unvelcro the strap to get them on and then they are very hard to revelcro when they are a child's foot who is not holding still. The other negative in my opinion is that the inside sole of the shoe is very textured with bumbs and ridges that I don't think my 12 month old likes. He has probably only worn these a couple of times, and they are definitely not my go-to shoe.
The plus of these shoes is that, like all crocs, they are very lightweight and water proof. Once we get them on they seem easy to walk in, but again, I don't think my son likes they way the bottom feels. I would recommend the croc finn sandal instead. We also purchased those and I like them MUCH better. I would also always recommend going up a little bit in size in crocs, it makes them easier to get on and off.
