Our dear little boy grows so fast that most shoes we received as gifts for him became too small for him in no time. Since Nathan wasn't walking, Aaron and I decided not to waste money on the shoes until he start to walk. Even though Nathan is still only crawling backward, he recently shows lots interest in standing. Who knows..maybe he would be one of thoese babies who decided to walk directly instead of crawling. So any way..we decided it's about time to buy him a good pair of shoes so we headed to the nearby outlet.
At first, we went to the Nike shop, for some reason, Nathan really dislike the shoes and tried very hard to kick them off. His response was kind of funny..and I thought maybe I measure it wrong so I asked the sales for help.
The sales told us that his feets belong to the wide type, so their shose may not be comfortable for him and suggested to another shop called "stride rite". Luckily the other shop is at the same mall, so we went. And it really opened my eyes, I didn't know there are so many different stage of shoese for infant/crawler/new toddlers..the buttom of the shoes, texture, purpose are all different..Gee..they really put lots thoughts in the shoes..and some of them are more expensive than adult ones too :-P This shop not only measure length, but width..and their shoes has "standard", "wide" and "extra wide"...and Nathan is the "extra-wide"..Ha..I think he is a really Hakka for his wide feet.
