Robeez Infant/Toddler Monkey Slip-On

Customer Reviews

JetWithKids reviewed product

Robeez are the first shoes my son ever wore. Perfect for developing feet and learning to walk, these non-skid, washable, cute, soft leather shoes can't be beat. These are great during the winter months on cold floors or just for protection for new walkers on any floor - these were my sons "house shoes".

Easy to pack and available from newborn to 4 years old, these should be in all carry-on bags for long flights with small children.

This is a "JetWithKids" recommended product!

the best

I might not have purchased these shoes because of the price, so I am grateful that my best friend gave me a pair for the baby shower. I love them so much that I have recently bought 4 more pairs in the next size up! (Different colors and designs of course.) First, they are adorable and everywhere we go (women especially) exclaim how much they love his shoes. What you can't see in the picture is there are little monkey tails stitched on the back of the heels. Second, they are easy to slip on but they don't fall off and he never tries to take them off. My son is 10 1/2 months old and wears size 6-12 mos. Third, I put them on without socks and they keep his feet warm. Fourth, they are sueded leather on the bottom and get good traction. Fifth, they shape themselves to his feet but don't restrict or dig in. I was also given a knock-off pair of "robeez" at the baby shower and I honestly threw them away because they had a ridiculously narrow sole with big fat seams that would have been directly under his feet. Robeez soles are nice and appropriately wide. Finally, I've read that soft shoes are recommended for baby feet up until they reach 2 years old and these certainly fit the bill. If you can afford them, I HIGHLY recommend you get some.

stays on his feet

I purchased the blue version of these after weeks and weeks of trying to get shoes to stay on my son's feet. A friend of mine told me about them, and though I normally don't spend this kind of money for shoes on my 12 month toddler, I think it is well worth the price. The shoes are good quality leather, very durable and flexible. They are sewn well and has elastic that goes around the ankle part of the shoe--which makes taking on and off very easy. It's kind of like a waistband for sweats. I don't regret getting them, though I have to say that I have not tried the one from Target to compare the brands side by side.

Go to Target for the off-brand and save yourself lots of $$

I do really like the Robeez for my baby, but you can buy shoes that are styled very VERY similarly (leather and soft-soled, even look just like Robeez) for half the price at Target. Unless you just *must* have that tiny tag that says "Robeez" on it, save yourself the $$ and go to Target.
