5 Stylish School Shoes Your Kids Will Love

I can’t believe summer is almost over and it’s time to shop for back to school already! Today I’m sharing my favorite school shoes for the kids that we’ve been getting year after year. pediped has over 120 designs for both boys and girls between its three lines: Originals, Grip ‘n’ Go & Flex. There’s something for everyone! Read on to see why pediped offers the best school shoes for kids, and how you can adjust them to last you through two shoe sizes instead of just one!

I love pediped’s Flex Fit System™ which allows for extended wear. This means I’m only buying shoes once per school year– or even every other year! The trick is to size up and use the extra insoles to provide the perfect fit. Once the shoe gets snug, remove the extra insole and the shoe instantly has more room to grow into. In my opinion, it’s the smartest shoe design on the market for busy moms. Not only that, these shoes have held up to seasons and seasons of wear between two kids. You simply can’t beat the quality.

Flex Force Shoes

We decided to get the Flex® Force Blue/Silver and the Flex® Force Navy/Fuschia which feature an ultra lightweight design (only 5 oz!) specially made to support kids’ feet in all activities. The flexible natural rubber and phylon sole provide comfort, grip, and maneuverability while on the playground, making them the best school shoes for kids.

The Flex Force line is also machine washable so these shoes will stay looking & smelling like new for many adventures to come! The faux laces and hook & loop fastener makes it a quick & easy option when you have to make it out the door in a snap.

Gabi loved the Flex Babe Champagne immediately– she fell for the fun eye and lips design! The flexible rubber sole allows for comfort and maneuverability on the playground. This shoe is approved by the American Podiatric Medical Association for promoting healthy foot development, so you can feel confident that it’s a good choice for your kiddos.

Adventure Sandals


While the weather is still warm, we got the Flex Canyon Water Shoe in Black and Flex Sahara in Berry. These sandals feature a clarino upper with breathable neoprene lining. This adventure sandal features a flexible rubber sole with a quick-dry EVA footbed which is designed to express water quickly. The hook and loop fastener design makes it quick and easy to get these sandals on in a hurry. These water-safe shoes are light-weight, eco-friendly, and perfect for a day at the pool or the beach.

pediped uses eco-friendly material which is made without any solvents during the manufacturing process. This results in less use of water and energy and reduced carbon dioxide emission. Best of all, Vegan shoes are made with no animal products or by-products. This is another reason you can categorize them as the best school shoes for kids!

I’ve chosen pediped for school shoes ever since the kids have been in school. pediped has over 120 designs for both boys and girls between its three lines: Originals, Grip ‘n’ Go & Flex, so there’s something for everyone! They offer sizes Newborn to 6 Youth, & there are plenty of styles that are perfect for school. Which ones would you pick for your kiddos?
