These all-purpose boots are a great boot for all year long. Made of a sheepskin cuff and an innersole that keeps feet dry and cool, or warm, during any season or weather, these are machine washable and handmade in the US. One size fits infants through age 12 months. The ankles are adjustable for snugness, and these boots are easy to get baby’s feet in as they slip on. You can purchase them for $39 a pair at OrganicEcho.com.

Part of Livie & Luca’s Spring 2010 collection, these Emilio’s Navy and Tan Loafers are cute shoes for any little boy (or girl, for that matter). These leather loafers have comfortable, flexible soles and velcro closures, so they’re easy for any little one to put on or take off. They are also described as being perfect for kids with wide feet. These shoes come in sizes from 4 to 12 for $45 at LivieandLuca.com.

These cute shoes from Pedoodles are functional and easy to match with just about anything in your little guy’s closet. Their eco-friendly design is made from remnants of premium leather. The soles are made for durability and traction. A wide toe box and flexible sole are great for developing feet. Recycled materials are used in making the sole. These shoes are available in a number of early walker and toddler sizes. You can purchase a pair for $36 at BabyAge.com.

I’ve seen the Ugg booties for infants, which look warm, but not very practical. These “Boo” booties, on the other hand, look as functional as they do warm. These are designed in sizes from infants up to a toddler 7-8, which is what my almost 4-year-old is wearing these days. Elastic at the back keeps them on. At $49.95 these are a lot cheaper than the grown up version, but just as hip. You can purchase a pair at shop.nordstrom.com.

These Hi-Top Velcro Tella Blue Shoes by Kenzo Shoes are super-hip. The bright colors and fun pattern combinations have a bit of 80s flair. Velcro makes them easy to get on and off. Being super-cool, doesn’t come cheap, however. Plan to pay $145.99 to purchase a pair. You can check them out at zandino.com.

These gorgeous baby shoes from Bloch Shoes recently caught my eye. I love the simple styling of these ballet flats. They are made from patent leather for softness and feature a cotton liner for extra comfort. These shoes, which also come in black, are available in infant sizes up to 12 months. I’m not sure how well they will stay on little feet, but they sure are sweet. You can purchase a pair for $46 at RonRobinson.com.

Recently while browsing Etsy seller FrancescaBaby’s shop, I came across these darling Pawprint Booties. Not only do these fleece booties look like they’d keep baby’s feet warm and cozy, but their print is so cute and reminiscent of the holidays. Hand or machine washable, these booties would be easy to care for as well. Best of all, the booties have an adjustable velcro strap to make sure they stay on baby’s feet (the biggest problem I had with baby booties!) You can purchase these at Etsy seller: FrancescaBaby, where they sell for $15 per pair and come in sizes to fit babies’ feet up to age 6-9 months.

I fall in love with every pair of Livie & Luca shoes that I see. The Pio Pio Mary Jane is no exception. I am quite taken with the sweet birdies on these practical mary janes. I buy lots of bird items for my middle daughter, who has a bird name, and these would be a perfect addition to her wardrobe. I’m just a little nervous that her tomboy ways would have these white shoes ruined in a single day. They are available in toddler sizes from 5-11 and retail for $45. You can purchase a pair at globalenfant.com.

Want to to dress your little one with some funky European flair? Check out these Andy Tracks shoes from favorite sock maker Trumpette. Available in infant sizes up to 24 months, these shoes come in a number of bright color combinations. I’m not sure how comfortable these PVC creations would be, but they sure are fun. You can purchase a pair for $29.50 at trumpette.com.

I like these fun blue shoes from Vincent. Easy to get on and off, they are a color of blue that will match with just about anything. I picture them with a denim skirt and some fun tights, but they would look equally great with jeans. The cute little butterflies add an extra touch of fun. They are available in a number of toddler sizes. You can purchase a pair for $23.98 (50% off) at modernmoppet.com.

These Aldabella Scarpa Monica Zebra Shoes are sure to jazz up any outfit. Somehow the zebra print appeals to me when most animal prints turn me off. I can see these looking great with anything from jeans to a funky (or not so funky) dress. They are available in sizes from 5-10 and retail for $46 at aldabellascarpa.com. A slightly different version is available in smaller sizes for $42 at aldabellascarpa.com.

We have had great luck with Robeez crib shoes. I’ve loved the look of the company’s more recent shoe lines, but have never been able to find them in stores to see them in person. Until now, that has kept me from ordering any sight unseen. These cute little boots, however, may be enough to get me to place an online order. I love the practical, dirt concealing color scheme, and the style is as cute as can be. These are available in sizes up to a toddler 7 and retail for $34.95. You can purchase a pair at babyearth.com.

Make cold weather more tolerable with these cheerfulboots from Gervain. Available in toddler sizes, these are made to protect little feet from cold, wet weather. I love the sweet little girl appliqued on each boot–they really make these shoes something special. These highly-giftable boots are currently on sale for $76.50 at shoes.com. Shipping is free, and you can find some good promo codes online for a further discount.

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.

Giesswein makes some of the cutest wool slippers I’ve ever seen. There are, however, rather pricey, and I don’t see them on sale very often. Currently, however, there are a lot of sale and clearance pairs at endless.com. I particularly like this cute pink pair, which has been reduced to $35.72 (from $64.95). Many other discounted styles are also available. You can check out all of the sites Giesswein offerings at endless.com.
