I was going to but my dd some shoes, she is also 16 months, they wanted to charge $75 for one pair and $90 for another. I said forget it and left. (I really did tell the sales man forget it)

noone guessed yet, queeny I was about to do the same but I really needed shoes for her. I could not bring myself to put it on her today I was thinking if she will scratch it then I'll be upset but for rh I'll be putting it on.

That's why I didn't buy them!!!!!!!!
I just got her soft walkers for like $20, she only started walking a few weeks ago anyways, so she can't pick her feet up in 'real' shoes yet anyways. I gotta get her some nice walkers for yom tov today. IY"H after work!!!!!!

Oh my, my daughter has nice little shoes from Sears for rh that cost $11.98!

that's the price, cause you didn't try to buy them in Boro Park.
I get these comments all the time about if you don't get name brand real support shoes they'll mess up her feet forever. Cheap shoes will destory her feet apparently. I just feel that is all a bunch of baloni.

Oh and just so you know, payless children's shoes are reviewed by a pediatrician just like striderites are and are very similar.

Yep, I also got my 2 year old shoes at Bass, but in Atlantic city. Tons of outlet stores there. I didn't pay so little like Ambassador, but $24 was definitely a lot better than the min. $50 they charge here! I also got my older daughter school shoes for the same price.

There is one store in Boro Park that often has sales racks and bins. I wish I could remember the name, but I bought 3 pairs of Italian leather shoes for my kids and one pair for myself for under $100. I happened to get lucky that they had our sizes on clearance. I suppose this does not help as I have no information! It was run by a mother with her daughter (maybe early 20ish) helping her.

is there outlets for cheap shoes somewhere close to brooklyn which is easy to get via train??

Payless shoes reviewed by pediatricians, that is interesting to hear, where can I get that info so I can tell all of the people who put them down.
