OK. Ok. We hear you. You've already read why a baby should not wear baby shoes. In fact, experts want you to do anything with baby shoes except put them on baby feet! But you're thinking baby shoes are irresistibly cute and you demand to know more about choosing a perfect pair of shoes. You demand baby shoe buying tips!

Baby shoes come with all different types of closures, from velcro to laces. Since footwear is not needed before a baby begins walking, it simply does not matter whether baby shoes use laces or velcro. Once infants begin walking, we suggest shoes with velcro closures so baby will not trip over untied laces. If lace-up shoes are preferred, laces should be double knotted or secured with lace locks. You may want to stray from shoes which restrict your baby's ankle movements. These types of shoes include leather high tops or boots.

Are you looking for something extra cute and a bit out of the ordinary? We think sandals are particularly cute on children.

Many people will want to bronze their babies first shoes, creating the most nostalgic of keepsakes. Try a pair of patent leather shoes for girls, as the bronzing will create glossy mirror-like finish. Ankle high booties for boys are a common favorite for bronzing.
