Stride Rite Girls Big Kid Claire Mary Jane

I bought these shoes for my first grade daughter (Size 3 WIDE) because my daughter wears uniforms. We wasted a lot of time in stores, trying to find the right show... but they were all really uncomfortable. I remembered that Stride Rite always had great shoes for my wide-foot boys and those shoes lasted and re-sold well. Since I wanted quality I took the jump and bought the Claire Mary Janes (use Rakuten extension for $ back). My daughter LOVES them and wants to wear them everyday even on PE days LOL! I do recommend that you get shoe polish like (kiwi), so you can care for the leather properly. Si usted tiene hijos o hijas con el pie ancho les recomiendo que compren los zapatos Stride Rite y selecionen WIDE (ancho). Los zapatos son de buena calidad, comodos, de cuero y si los venden aunque esten usados la gente va a pagar mas. No se les olvide cuidar del cuero con un limpiabotas (Kiwi- lo encuentras en Walmart cerca de los zapatos). Asi el zapato se mantiene bonito y el cuero dura mucho mas!

My daughter has very wide feet so finding nice shoes that fit is a struggle. Most shoes that fit her width wise look like clown shoes on her. While these ones still have room in the toes, she can run, skip, jump, and climb in these no problem. Great shoes for the busy princess in your life.

I have been purchasing Stride Rite shoes for over 12 years, for both my son and daughter. I have purchased over 10 pairs of Mary Janes for my 8 year old daughter and these are by far the best ones I have ever purchased! My daughter has narrow feet so we have had issues with the leather cracking because of them being too big. We have had these for over a month and they are holding up great.

I brought these shoes for my daughter for when she's at school. I am not disappointed in this purchase because not only are they comfortable but they take all the wear and tear that my daughter does while she's at school all day. She plays in these shoes and she loves to dance with them on. Despite all that they still look like they are good as new. I would highly recommend this shoe.

I have always been an avid Stride Rite shopper. So imagine my despair when the stores closed down. Since my own kids were little, some 30+ years ago, I've always felt that Stride Rite Shoes were worth the extra dollars. I ordered these for my granddaughter and after 1 week, this is the picture my daughter sent me. What has happened to the Quality?! Best regards, Deborah Morrison
