My grandson loves to wiggle his toes. During the fall season in New York he needs a little more protection than socks can handle. Since he dislikes the constriction of shoes, this is a prefect product to keep him happy and protected.

These slippers were small for the size. I am waiting on the exchange but they seemed to be fine otherwise. Order a size or two higher. I hope he keeps them on his feet!

Not What I expected

Cons:

Poor Construction

Best Uses:

Indoors

Describe Yourself:

Parent of Two or More Children

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about One Step Ahead Velour Soft Shoes:

Sorry but when I received the order in the mail I was less then satisfied I thought that these shoes were to expensive and they were not what I though they would be. First of all they had barely any fabric in the sole it was like my son was walking on the bare floor. And they slip off his feet and they are still very slippery on the floor. [...] way too much money!!!

Run small

By NikNik

from Wisconsin on 11/9/2009

Gift:

Pros:

Comfortable, Easy To Put On

Cons:

Poor Fit

Best Uses:

Everyday, Indoors, Playtime

Describe Yourself:

Parent of Two or More Children

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about One Step Ahead Velour Soft Shoes:

These would be great if they fit. I ordered size 5-6 even though my daughter was only in size 4 at the time hoping they would last all through the winter. Well, they are already too tight and she is just outgrowing her size 4 shoes now. If you're going to get these, I would definitely order a couple sizes bigger. Ours were barely worn and are now useless.

Not impressed!

By Mom of One

from Owatonna, MN on 11/9/2009

Gift:

Cons:

Flimsy Material, Runs small

Describe Yourself:

Child Care Professional, First Time Parent

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about One Step Ahead Velour Soft Shoes:

I thought these might make a good slipper but they are nothing but a glorified sock. Also, they run small. I even ordered a size up because other reviews said the same and they still weren't big enough. Then to send them back cost me as much as the socks themselves.

Easy on; not as skid proof as I'd hoped

By MassMom

from Boston, MA on 11/9/2009

Gift:

Pros:

Easy To Put On

Cons:

A little slippery

Best Uses:

Indoors

Describe Yourself:

First Time Parent

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about One Step Ahead Velour Soft Shoes:

Definitely buy a size up; especially if you want to fit socks underneath the slippers. I was surprised the non-skid "spots" on the bottom were so tiny and not very rough/gummy - like on non-skid socks. We haven't had too many wipe outs, but they do slide sometimes.

Good but a little small.

By Kasia

from CT on 11/9/2009

Gift:

Pros:

Breathable, Comfortable, Durable, Lightweight

Cons:

Poor Fit

Best Uses:

Indoors, Playtime

Describe Yourself:

First Time Parent

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about One Step Ahead Velour Soft Shoes:

I like these slippers but they are a little difficult to get on which I guess helps them stay put. Also, I would order a size up. My daughter wears a size 7 shoe so I ordered 7/8 and they are snug and will soon be too small. I should've exchanged them but didn't want the hassle.

Comments about One Step Ahead Velour Soft Shoes:

I purchased the velour shoes for my son to wear with his Halloween costume. I bought a size 5/6 as this is what his Striderites are (5 1/2). I couldn't get them on his feet at all. I would go at LEAST 1 size up.

Comments about One Step Ahead Velour Soft Shoes:

these are more like socks than shoes or slippers so I was disappointed....if your looking for run around the house socks then great but if you're looking for something more substantial these are not it.

These shoes are sized on the small side!

By Mom in DC

Cons:

Poor Fit

Best Uses:

Indoors

Describe Yourself:

Parent of Two or More Children

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about One Step Ahead Velour Soft Shoes:

I can't speak to how well these are made, only that the proclaimed size range seems to be underestimated. My son is a size 7 and I ordered to corresponding size range - no go. I could barely get the slippers over his ankles. Even then, they were pretty snug over his foot in general. If you are thinking of getting these, buy a size that seems to big for your child, and hopefully they will fit.
