I buy each of my two girls a new pair of native shoes every spring for the past 5 years, and that’s about all they wear until October. They are so easy and they love them. They are very easy to keep clean by throwing them in the laundry machine and come out looking new. These are also the only hand-me-down shoes that still look great for my younger daughter, and probably for her little cousins after her. They are eco conscious too! I can’t say enough great things about these shoes!
