I purchased these along with the navy and light brown Jake shoes (total $148.00).  I am extremely disappointed in the quality and workmanship for all of the Jake shoes, but mostly for the white/navy.  I've purchased Pedipeds since my son was an infant so I had full faith and confidence that ordering these shoes would be a good move.  I also liked them because they were tieless which makes it much easier to get shoes on and off.  My three year old wore them and after just the first day had worn the toes off of both shoes.  How a three year old can destroy a pair of shoes at daycare on the first day is beyond me.  He has worn many other shoes at daycare (Nike, Sperrys, cheap Target and Wal-Mart brands, etc.) and I have never had the problems that I've had with the Pedipeds.  The leather (or whatever the material is) is extremely soft and as thin as an onion skin.  Also, the white/navy Jake shoe does not have a toe guard as do the navy and light brown.  But even if this pair did have a toe guard if they are anything like the navy and light brown the toe guard stitching would have already come out and part of the toe guard torn off.

I don't mind spending money for nice clothes and shoes for my three year old; however, when spending this amount and for them to tear up as easily as they did is aggravating.  I certainly will not purchase another pair and will question myself before purchasing another pair of Pedipeds.
