My son outgrew these sandals a long time ago, but my wife has never outgrown them.  She will forever hold onto them as one of those cherished clothing articles that reminds her of the days when our little boy was still a little boy.  When he is a teenager, she will embarrass him by dragging them out and reminiscing about him.  I will glow, too, remembering those days.  Get some for your little guy, and you'll see.  These are cuter than cute.
