Back-to-School Shoes…..check!

 


Why do all my kids grow a size at the same time? Does this happen to other families as well? Just when I thought I had this whole back-to-school thing handled, I realized that all the boys will be needing new shoes this year since they are all pretty much maxing out on the ones they have now. Truth be told though, I was definitely ready to toss their old shoes anyway. This will forever be known as the summer of the plantars warts and now that we FINALLY have those things beat (knocks on wood) we are ready to move on with some fresh new sneaks for the school year ahead!

At ages 7, 8 and 10, the boys are developing thier own individual styles and they definitely want to pick out their own shoes. Sometimes it can be hard to sit back and let them have full say, but it’s good for them to express themselves in their own way. This year, they each picked something very different from the other brothers. 

 

Skechers shoes for boys

 

The Equalizer 2.0 – Perfect Game shoe has a unique knit fabric in a splashy design. It comes in 4 different colours including this black/lime combo. At first I wasn’t sure about this one, but when it arrived, I LOVED it! It’s a really fun shoe that suits my boy well and comes with my favourite Air Cooled Memory Foam sole. The shoe came with the black laces, but also included a second pair of bright lime ones which were a big hit and he’s decided to switch to those. I love that Skechers gives kids the option to create their own personalized style.

If you’ve never tried Memory Foam shoes you are sadly missing out. They are pretty much my favourite thing ever, I own a couple of pair of shoes and sandals as well that feature it. The soles are so soft and comfy and they breathe really well too. They also tend to absorb a ton of water so be sure to remove them before an epic water battle, lesson learned on our part!

My oldest son opted for the Skech-Air 3.0 shoes in a navy/blue combo. The blue on blue suits him well, as it’s his very favourite colour and the pop of lime sets it all off just right. He likes the ease of the slip on with the look of a lace up.  This shoe is also very comfy with a Gel Infused Memory Foam insole similar to the last pair. The 3D printed synthetic overlays make for a really cool look.

My youngest is still attracted to shiny things and  just had to have a pair of light up shoes. Nothing beats an epic R2D2 shoe, especially for a pint sized Star Wars fan! Meet the Skechers Kids R2D2 Damager III Astronech Sneaker.

 

R2D2 shoes

 

Did I mention these shoes talk? Not only do they light up but they also make beep and whistle sounds just like R2D2. Don’t worry, they only make sound when you press the sound button and they also have an on/off button for the lights right on the strap to keep things on the down low during inappropriate times.
