Where to buy toddler shoes in Omaha?
I need shoes for the boys. I've been to Caters and Payless with no luck. I tried to order some cute shoes off payless online, but they didn't fit, and I really need a place locally where they can try them on and return easily.
Any suggestions? Sandals were easy, but I've never purchased shoes before!

I've never heard of this Stride Rite place. I shall google, thank you.
I also look at consignment sales, but rule #1 of multiples is to purchase matchign shoes. It's just easier that way.
$46 for THESE?!
(They sure are cute though...)
yea, it's obscenely expensive. My kid has had extra wide feet and these were the only shoes that would fit him. Although his feet are now just wides so I'm super excited that I may be able to buy him inexpensive shoes soon!
They do have BOGO 50% coupons sometimes. Sign up for their email list. Also, you can find Stride Rite shoes discounted online, I buy them from Piperlime, free shipping and free returns. Take them to the store to figure out the size you need and then order online. Also, check out children's place. There are some super cute shoes there right now and most are only $20 (and you can prob find a coupon for 20% off)
Have you tried Kohl's? We buy a lot of Elsie's shoes there. They have all the major brands and Kohl's brand that are pretty cute.
I'm waaaay to cheap to ever pay $46 for kids shoes! The most expensive pair Evan had were his $17.99 Converse from Target.
Pretty soon the boys will be able to locate and match up their own shoes. I wouldn't be hell bent on matching. But then again I only have one to dress and he picks out his own shoes every day.

For DS' main pair of shoes, we go to Stride Rite. Yep, expensive, but I guess I'm convinced that it is worth it. Thank goodness I can get away with really only having one pair at a time - his size changes approx. every 3 months at his age. However, with the BOGO 50% off in July, I bought the current pair and his next size to get the second pair for a better price. I imagine we'll switch to Scheels, Kohls, etc at some point for Nike/Reebok eventually, but for his little feet now, we go with SR. Someone once told me never to buy used shoes for your kiddos, b/c the soles form to their feet. Makes sense to me. So, for me, consignment clothes = ok, but consignment shoes not so much.
For shoes that are not worn daily (i.e., his dress shoes, water shoes for daycare), we bought those at BRU and Target.
Yep. Your kid will be forced to walk based on the old wear patterns...so consignment shoes are great until they start walking
I can't tell you how many times I remember going to the SR store in Denver as a kid...and realize now that my mom must've spent a fortune on my shoes!

This. Tommy had double xw feet for a while (now just xw) and Kolbe wears an xw. If you have the ability to hit a stride rite outlet anytime soon, I suggest that
