Okay, so I bought these for my nephew's christening and they're seriously the cutest thing ever! The brown color is perfect - not too dark, not too light, just a classic shade that goes with everything.

The PU leather feels surprisingly soft and flexible. My sister was worried they'd be stiff for her 8-month-old, but nope! They bend easily with his little feet movements. Plus those tiny air holes actually work - no sweaty baby feet after wearing them all day at the party.

Now about the fit... They run slightly big (got size 6-12 months for my chubby-footed nephew). The laces help adjust the width nicely though. Pro tip: double knot them because they do come undone easily when babies kick their feet around!

We've used them for three occasions already - the christening, a family photo shoot, and just last weekend for brunch. They still look brand new after multiple wears and washes (yes, I threw them in the washing machine on gentle cycle - came out perfect!).

The only minor complaint? Getting them on wiggly baby feet takes some practice. But once they're on, they stay put! Way better than those sock shoes that always fall off.

Final verdict? 9/10 would recommend to any mom looking for dressy yet practical first shoes. Just maybe order one size down if your baby has narrow feet!
