Vincent Shoes had long been one of my favourite online shops for my kids shoes, and it’s becoming more and more appealing the older they get. When they’re little, I love their Robeez and See Kai Run kicks because they’re just buttery soft and all around awesome, but as they start to wear through a pair of those each month it becomes time to move into the big kid shoes.

Vincent shoes don’t just look good – they last. My children have had several pairs and only one has ever actually looked worn before being outgrown. My son is wearing the Liam toddler boot in brown this fall (pictured) and we’re totally digging it. It’s a stylish low-cut boot that’s perfect for active boys like mine. A mix of leather and suede provides style and comfort, and the velcro closure with bungee laces makes them easy and fast to get on as you’re running out the door. (Is that just me? We never just leisurely walk out the door anymore.) They come in four colours, black, brown, grey & red, and in sizes 5 (toddler, one year-ish) through 13 (child kindergarten-ish).

Vincent has more selection in Euro-style boys shoes than any other affordable shop I’ve ever found, and their sale section always rocks.
