Customer Reviews Native Shoes Kids Jefferson (Little Kid/Big Kid)

Probably the worst thing I've ever bought from Zappos. I was so jazzed about these that I almost got my own pair, but I'm glad I didn't. These fit great...in the house, if the A/C is on. You know how the care instructions warn they'll shrink in heat? They're not kidding. But they don't mention that it doesn't take much heat to do it. I'm familiar with shoes feeling tight when your feet swell, whether from walking or being hot, but this is something else entirely. My daughter will put these on, and just by sitting on our balcony in high heat, they will become uncomfortable on her, and I have to literally pry them off. That's not normal. I can't imagine how they react if they're left in a car, or worn in really hot climates. They're headed for the trash after maybe 2 wearings. Back to Stride Rite we go for water shoes.

Absolutely love these shoes and so happy that we found them last year. They tend to sell out quickly so we order ours in the winter and I just size up. These run true to size and don't cause blisters even when used as a water shoe and then hiking right after. We are outdoors all summer going from our pool to the lake to the mountains and these are our staple shoe for all of us.

My daughter loves these shoes. And I love the fact that they're super cute and very durable. The only problem we have with them is that we wish they were offered in half sizes! The size 2 was just a tad small to be really comfortable and the size 3 was too big and floppy on her! UGH

These are excellent summer shoes for all 3 children. They last through rough play and wear and tear while still looking stylish. My toddler can put them on alone and my oldest requested them again this summer as a favorites. Love the colored bottoms/stripe as the white tends to show scuff marks too quickly. Dear native please make more shoes with the colored bottoms.

We love these shoes. I buy them for my granddaughter, this is all she will wear!! She has about 5 pair!!

My kids have been wearing these shoes for years. They're the best. They're so versatile that they end up being their main shoes.

Was on the fence between a size 12 or 13 (little kids). I looked at the size chart to make an educated guess. I measured my grand daughters feet and then decided that the 13 was going to most likely fit. We just got them today and they are way to big , they would definitely slip off on the playground when she's running around. I'm going to go a full size down in hopes they won't be to tight. That has been my problem with Native shoes, either they are to small or way to big. If they had the half sizes (like they list on Zappos size chart) I think I would be able to avoid sending things back so much.

My daughter lives in these shoes. They hold up to a lot of abuse and are comfortable, easy for little kids to get on/off, and easy to clean.

tried and true. this is probably our 10th pair of natives between my two kids. we tried another brand and my kid got blisters. back to natives for good.

Cute shoe. Runs big. Had to return a size 1 for a 13. Overall, hoping these will hold up through the summer.

True to size, comfy, long lasting and great shoe

We love natives, they are great. This pair is really nice. The first pair I ordered were very large for my daughter, but, the exchange process was super easy! I mailed (no extra charge) the large shoes back and received the exchange in 3 days.

My daughter loves these shoes!! They are comfortable, breathable and very easy to clean!!

These are so cute! A little wide if you have narrow feet, but so cute and light weight that I don’t care.

My daughter loves these slip ons! If not going where she might get her feet wet, she wears a no-show sock which makes them a smidge more comfortable. She loves that they feel light in the summer and she can wear them with shorts and dresses.

Kid likes that socks aren’t needed. Mom likes that they don’t get stinky.

Great color and very comfortable, our daughter loves

My daughter loves her shoes very comfortable, get atleast one every summer

My daughter lives in these and would through the winter if she could. But we live in NYC….

Easy to put on, easy to clean, run like sneakers. Probably on our 10th pair at this pony.

My daughter loved these shoes, fit perfect!

Favorite children’s shoes! I always purchase one size up in Natives. Love that you can rinse these in the sink when they are dirty, spray some dawn powerwash on them and they look brand new!

perfect for kids to play in

Great shoes for summer, these ran a little big and had to exchange for smaller size. Durability is great, I can pass on to our younger child which is awesome!!

Love these shoes!
