Kids’ summer shoes have to be versatile and play a lot of roles. Kids want them to be fun, cool and comfortable. While schools and camps typically require closed-toe shoes. Finding the balance can be hard!
Moms need them to be all.the.things—durable, quick drying and able to be worn anywhere! Shoes that can take our child from the playground, to the beach and then to family dinner at a local restaurant.
