Pediatricians recommended soft-soled footwear for your baby's formative years ... footwear like Robeez. Secure - Slip them on and they stay on. Skid-resistant - The textured suede sole prevents slipping. Durable -- Leather construction stands up to the toughest toddlers. Comfortable -- The quality leather is soft and comfy, heel to toe. Versatile -- Great for indoor or light outdoor use. How to wash you Robeez -- Keep your Robeez looking fresh and bright by machine washing periodically.

For regular upkeep and extended wear, hand wash with mild detergent. For spot cleaning, use mild detergent and a damp cloth.
I bought these in tan as a first pair of shoes for my 9-month-old daughter and am pretty pleased with them. I bought them in a size too large (there's about 1/2" extra room inside the shoe right now), but the elastic ankle still keeps them snugly on her feet through most typical activities. The fur lining is very soft and she appears to be comfortable and warm in them. The only drawback is that they do get dirty quickly because of the suede-like material. A few chewings from my daughter when I wasn't looking turned the edges blue-gray. I washed them as Robeez suggests -- put in the washer on a cold cycle, partially dry in the dryer and then lay flat to finish drying -- and they washed up pretty well. They kept their shape for the most part (slightly looser around the ankles) and the fur came out nice and fluffy. The suede is no longer as soft and smooth, and although the individual discolored areas washed clean, the material looks a little dingy overall now. Still, they are warm, sturdy, and look cute with all of her outfits, so I think we'll be wearing these all winter and buying more Robeez in the spring.
My son received these for his birthday and we love them! They are easy to get on a squirmy 1-year-old, and stay on, even though he is at the mostly crawling/creeping stage that is so hard on clothing. I love that they keep his feet warm but don't let him slide around like socks or footie pajamas would. An added bonus is that the tops are bulky enough to keep the hems of his pants from dragging down around his feet if his pants are a little long--probably my favorite thing about them is not having to constantly roll cuffs. They are so soft and cozy, wish I had a pair.
UPDATE: They fit even better after I took the cotton batting out of the toes! I wonder if that's the source of the problem a previous reviewer had in getting them on baby's feet.
