I bought two pairs of these beaded moccasins for my nephews. The original motivation was the three-and-a-half-year-old nephew solemnly saying that he "needed" a Native American costume for Christmas because "I've never had a bow and arrow before." I don't prefer to supply weaponry, especially to preschoolers, but I decided to get the rest of the costume for him and his older brother. These moccasins were the only ones I could find that weren't the horrid-looking, half-mangled ones from the tacky temporary Halloween store, so I decided to order them.
They're great! These are shoes that you could actually wear for everyday purposes! They're sturdy enough that they boys will be able to run around the house, or even outside without having to worry about what's happening to their socks. They look neat (just like in the picture). Their softsole construction is both highly traditional (although they add a Dr-Scholl's-like foam insert for comfort) and good for the muscles in growing feet. I'm thinking about ordering more for the rest of the kids -- if only the company listed all of their (dozens of!) varieties on Amazon.com!
Also, if you're going on a "China diet," these shoes are some of the few which aren't Made in China. Instead, they're made in the Dominican Republic, which is not only close to Florida (which means fewer fossil fuels spent transporting your purchase), but also a democracy.
