What shoes do you buy for your toddler/preschooler

[Mom2Connor]

We've been buying SR as well because they fit DS's wide feet the best, but I do have to agree that for everyday wear they are not holding up as well as i'd like now that he's wearing them for longer periods of time. He started wearing these in August (they were a little big at the time) and is still wearing them now. We don't buy half sizes, just whole. We always go to the next size up so 8 to a 9 then onward. He's in a 9wide currently.

They basically look ok but some of the stitching has been fraying for a couple months already. I have seen a few other brands (normal brands) that have wide sizing, and have thought about giving one of them a try. They always seem so stiff though compared to the normal SR's.
