Expandable Shoes a Stretch?

Saturday, May 17, 2008

A new shoe expands with kids' feet--and so does the price tag.

Kids seem to grow everyday--especially their feet. Instead of buying shoes sizes too big and forcing them to walk wearing giant clown shoes, Inch Worm Shoes are designed to stretch into three different sizes with a push of a button. Nice idea. Not so nice price. The shoes run about 80 bucks. Hey, we're no mathematicians, but we figure we could by our kids three DIFFERENT pairs of shoes for the same price.

What do you think? Great idea, or kick it to the curb?

cool idea but another reason for new shoes is that they get dirty and smelly. I don’t want my kid in the same shoes for a year.

The thing with kids shoes is more often than not they wear out before they’re outgrown anyways… These look like a waste of money/gimmick to me.

I do like this idea. My 10 year old went from a 2 to an 8 this school year. I would say, didn’t we just buy shoes?
