Shoe Shopping....Boys edition

So one of the biggest differences between boys and girls....shoe selection :)

My daughter has more shoes than I do...it is ridiculous. She has boots, flats, strappy sandals, jellies, flip flops, dressy, casual...you name it, she has it. She wears them all too. She is quite girly and loves dressing up and matching shoes to her outfits.

But the boys...they survive on what is needed.

Our go-to pair are our New Balance tennis shoes (and the only pair that still fits):



They are great for playing and the boys love that they can take them off by themselves because of the velco strap. Actually, Bryce takes them off as soon as he gets into the car...everytime!!

We have added 3 more pair to the collection for the spring/summer, and well, as long as their foot will fit into them.

1.Crocs
Katelyn had a pair last year and they got alot of wear, so I thought it was just natural to get the boys a pair. We went with black since it was a great neutral.



They clean easily and let the foot breath during the summer. The boys were a little unsure of them at first, but they seem to like them now. Although, Carter trips himself a little bit ;) Also, I signed up to receive e-mails and got a 20% off coupon! Super affordable!

2. TOMS
I LOVE my TOMS so I thought it would be a great casual shoe for the boys. They spend 65% of their time in khakis and a shirt, so throwing on a pair of TOMS just completes the outfit :)



Not to mention, they are precious!! Also, since we got the boys a pair, we got two pairs for someone else that needed shoes :)

3. Sandals

We went with a GAP pair. Gap was having 20% off, so I figured I would take advantage of a sale since I have to get two pair, and well it is summer...so you have to have sandals. Enough said...



So, we have our shoe collection complete :) We are happy with our selection and super pumped that with sales and all, we were able to purchase 6 pairs of shoes for under $100 bucks!! Not bad!!

What shoes are you wearing this summer??
