Here is a cute crib shoe for little boys. The deep navy color and space theme caught my eye while I was browsing for shoes for my littlest girl. I think these are very attractive, but also practical in that the design is subdued enough that it won’t clash with the clothing in your little one’s wardrobe. You can purchase a pair of these great Umi shoes on sale for $33.45 (down from $43) at shoebuy.com.

There are some expensive children’s shoes that I love, but for which I just can’t justify the price. Then there are others that leave me scratching my head. I’m afraid that these crib shoes from D & G fall into the latter category. Retailing for $126, these shoes are made from leather and feature the D & G logo framed in pink. I just don’t find these attractive in any way, shape, or form. I don’t think they even look comfortable, or likely to stay on squirmy baby feet. If you really love the look (or crave the status that they perhaps confer), you can purchase them at Zappos.com. However, if you really want to spend $126 on baby shoes, I’d recommend you stock up on Robeez. You could purchase at least 4 pairs for that price!

Here is a cute footwear option that won’t break the bank. These crib shoes offer the same features as name brands like Robeez at about half the price. Made from leather with suede soles, these shoes feature an elasticized back to keep them on wiggly feet.

They offer flexibility and breathability so growing feet get off to the right start. We have one pair of these that I bought on clearance at my local Target for less than $4! Although I find then to be slightly less soft than our Robeez, they look great and fit like the more expensive brand.

The normal retail price is $12.99. You can purchase them at Target stores or online at target.com. A number of colors and designs are available.  I thought this giraffe pair was quite cute.

If you want your little one to stand out as just a little bit hipper and edgier than other babies, check out these trendy dragon crib shoes from Me in Mind.  Made from soft suede, these grey leather shoes feature black trim and dragons. The elasticized back helps keep them on busy little feet.  They are available in infant sizes and can be purchased for $24 at LaLaLing.com.

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Umi offers these great Adore crib shoes.  The shoes feature a leather upper and lining.  They close with a Velcro closure which makes them easy to get on and off, and the collar and tongue are well-padded for added comfort.  A leather outsole with rubber pads keeps mobile infants and walkers safe. 

Embroidered heart accents make these shoes perfect for your little sweetheart and will fit in well with her wardrobe even after Valentine’s Day.  They are available in sizes up to a toddler 5.  You can purchase a pair on sale for $29.99 at piperlime.com.

European designer Oilily is known for its fun and often over-the-top designs. These crib shoes are a great example of their style. The pale pink shoes are adorned with a deer at the toe, and are edged with green velour ribbon.

The strap and heel are decorated with a flower print. The sole is made to be flexible for babies who are learning to crawl or walk. They are definitely something extra-special, and I would have loved to have had them when my girls were the right age for them.

The only possible drawback is the price—at $92, they are definitely a luxury item. You can buy a pair at sobebabies.com.
