About them: pediped® footwear was founded in 2005 by Angela and Brian Edgeworth. Angela wanted a shoe that was comfortable and stylish and that could be worn both indoors and out and that was healthy for her daughter’s feet. Angela discovered that doctors recommended barefoot walking or soft leather sole shoes, but the choices for infants and toddlers were limited.That is when Angela and her husband Brian decided to create the perfect shoe, which would be the “next best thing to bare feet”. pediped® has become one of the fastest growing children’s footwear brands in the U.S.
My son and I had the pleasure of receiving a pair of pediped shoes for review and to include in our Holiday Gift Guide this year. They have so many to choose from that it was a tough decision but we ended up getting the Grip ‘n’ Go Jake Chocolate shoes in size 18-24 months. These shoes are so incredibly cute I can not stand it! They have a nice nubuck leather top and an extremely soft and breathable leather lining. They have a flexible rubber sole that I was a little hesitant about first because they felt slick and we have hardwood throughout our home. They actually have a nice grip to them which is perfect for my son who likes to run everywhere he goes. They have faux laces and a velcro closure that allow them to open up nicely to get even the chunkiest of feet in with ease! I just love everything about these shoes! I think they are absolutely adorable and love that they were approved by the American Podiatric Medical Association for promoting healthy foot development. That is very important to me and the health and safety of my son! Not only are they cute but they go on my son with ease and because they have the velcro closure, they stay nice and snug and do not fall off. Other shoes have caused my son’s feet to sweat profusely but these allow enough airflow that he does not get sweaty feet at all! They are soft and flexible and he seems to really enjoy them. As a mater of fact, he doesn’t like to take them off at all. These Grip ‘n’ Go Jake Chocolate Shoes are made super well! They are high quality and made to last! I absolutely love these pediped shoes and I have received non stop compliments whenever we are out and about and my son is wearing them. If you are looking for a pair of good quality shoes that are healthy for your child to wear, pediped offers a wide variety of shoes for all stages of development. I highly recommend pediped and think they would make a great gift for your loved ones this holiday season!
