Gentle Shoes for Tiny Feet

owl.jpgIs it a federal parenting law that toddlers have to wear Robeez? They’re soft and flexible and all, but they sure are fug: Shiny and decorated with graphics that put me in mind of that horrible whiner Calliou. Shudder.

Simple’s Infant’s Weegee is a lot like Hanna Andersson’s popular Swedish moccasin, an all-in-one shoe-and-sock combo for the colder months. But to my eye this particular model is a lot more subtle than any of Hanna’s, which are all afflicted by the Hanna Andersson Eye-Watering Color Combo Syndrome. Simple’s Weegee, like Simple’s adult shoes, is made from eco-friendly materials, in this case suede from an eco-certified tannery, recycled plastic and natural latex, and a soft, plushy organic cotton fleece lining. They’re washable, comfy, and almost as soft as your infant’s tiny feet.
