Native Shoes, Jefferson Child, Kids Lightweight Sneaker

My daughter is 6 and has sensory processing disorder, with the primary “symptom” being tactile defensiveness (meaning she is INCREDIBLY sensitive to how things physically feel to her). Shoes have always been a nightmare because of the constant contact with her feet, until my SIL introduced us to this brand! I initially wasn’t thrilled about spending $50+ on a single pair of shoes for my rapidly growing child, but they have proven time and time again that they are incredibly durable, (even when worn nearly everyday for 9ish months) and are still nice enough to pass on to smaller cousins when she outgrows them! They’re made out of the same material as Crocs, but are SO MUCH CUTER! The colors and patterns are adorable, and the super lightweight, “soft” foam material does not send my child into a demonic-possession style tantrum, like a standard pair of kids’ tennis shoes! The Jefferson and Miller styles look just like tennis shoes, so she is even allowed to wear them for PE at school! They’re easily worn with or without socks, and are SO EASY to clean! If they get dirty, all I have to do is run a damp soapy sponge over them, and they look good as new! Seems silly to say, but these little shoes have been a saving grace fo my little girl, and have made our daily lives 1000 times less stressful! We just purchased her 5th pair, and I’m sure we will be long-time customers, but I certainly consider it money well spent!

We have loved natives for years, my kids always request to get a new pair every spring break and wear them all summer long. From the park to beach and then to pool even in the mud they wash super nice and are easy for them to take off and put on all by themselves.

These shoes are adorable. They run about a half size bigger then what my child normally wears. Otherwise very happy with my purchase.

My 21 month old granddaughter loves these shoes. She picks them over all her other shoes. They are perfect for summer and beyond. Sandals are tough for toddlers so I would highly suggest these. They are well made and durable. They protect her feet better than a sandal ever would.

Theyre a little too big but super cute!

My daughters love these. They say they are comfortable and I love that they are easy to clean and for them to put on. My youngest wears a 11 1/2 I got her an 11 and they fit. My oldest wears a 1 1/2 and I got her a 1 and they also fit.

Son wears 2.5 I ordered a 1 and it fits great with a little room for easy on and off.

Love the bright color - and our kid lives in these shoes.

Perfect Fit. Granddaughter wants to wear them every day.

This is exactly what my daughter needed! Looks great in person and comfortable for her to run around in.
