When I was first diagnosed with Plantar’s Fasciitis in my feet a while back, I was perplexed at what I was supposed to do to fix it - short of surgery. I received painful injections of cortisone into my feet repeatedly but the agony in my feet never stayed away for long.
So I started looking [...]

Stride Rite: You have a new fan.
I hate buying baby shoes. There, I admitted it. They never fit the way they should. Lets face it, most kids have anatomically weird feet. They are either way wide, very thick or abnormally small, or a combination of the three. My kid has thick and small feet, so when Stride [...]

My daughter has been trying to walk for over a month now and she’s currently only 9 months old. She has been cruising couches and coffee tables and an occasional pant leg and crawls only when she has no other option. She is even to the point where climbing is not only a real possibility, [...]

I’m pleasantly surprised after reviewing the new Robeez 2008 Fall Collection of soft-soled shoes! Honestly, I’ve always stayed away from purchasing the Robeez brand because of the price and instead went for other types of soft-soled shoes. However, now that I’ve actually used them and compared them; I realize just how different the Robeez are.
I [...]

I mentioned that I am a flip flop fanatic. Come summer I live in my flip flops so they have to be stylish and comfortable. Gone are the days of those thin drugstore flip flops that I used to buy in every color and always ended up looking too matchey. They have been replaced by [...]

I love these shoes. I love these shoes. I love these shoes. How’s that for an intro? When my daughter was learning to walk I was introduced to soft sole shoes from Robeez and I loved them. But the shoes I just got for my son from the new Robeez Weekend Collection are phenomenal.
I have [...]

I do not know a mom or dad who wouldn’t benefit from a great pair of tennis shoes. While I know most of us may not be able to spend a lot on a pair of shoes, it is recommended you spend the most you are can afford to ensure you get a great fitting [...]

When Polliwalks were first introduced to me I was angry, because I wish I would have created this type of kid’s shoe. They are beyond cute, but also offer more than just foot protection. Designed in four styles (ducks, lady bugs, gators and frogs) and available in a variety of colors, they certainly mix things [...]

Have you heard about these new Fit Flip Flops? Supposedly they’re all the rave. Although they started in Great Britain they have made their way to the U.S. through Bath & Body Works where you can only order them online.
They look like normal flip flops other than the extra-thick soles. The claim is that walking [...]

My kids typically have 2 or 3 pairs of shoes at any given time. Since they grow out of them so quickly, we don’t like to buy them more than that, even if they are inexpensive.
Typically we will take a trip to the Stride Rite outlet store a couple of times a year and just [...]
