Kids shoes

Major brands:

 

Payless Shoe Source

Very affordable (not to say cheap) with some kind of style.

Good surprises for kids (like sneakers or sandals) and teenagers.

The brand has sometimes temporarily collections developped by some famous designers, the same way H&M had Jimmy Choo shoes recently.

Sketchers

Top casual collection @ pretty low prices (30 to 50$).

Traditional sneakers, but the brand is also well known for funny, colorful prints (super heroes, flasing soles...)

Camper

Two Camper stores but you can find Camper shoes on Zappos for example.

The style can be on the one hand colorful and outstanding as in an Almodovar movie, and on the other hand, conventional and classical. Anyhow, the brand offers beautiful and original leather shoes around 80$

Clarks

Very British but definitely very fancy and trendy despite the casual, classic charm. We love Clarks for tiny and bigger feet.

Stride Rite

One Stride  Rite boutique, but shoes of the brand are available in most multibrands stores (see the Store locator section on their website).

Pretty affordable alternative for the youngest ones.

Picks: sandals and flat ballerines for girls and some cool sneakers for boys.

Toms

You'll find them almost everywhere (department stores, stores on Haight, Valencia... and online for sure).

When you buy a pair of Toms, the Company is giving one to a child in need. Smart and fancy charity business!

Independent stores:

 

Brooks Shoes

Good selction with a lot of nice brands (Nike, Puma, Converse, Geox...) and a rather appealing price policy (around 50$). They even offer a loyalty program and sales are super attractive.

Can't be missed!

Zappos

Can't be missed. Choice, price policy, delivery system, return policy... Flawless?

 

Piperlime

Same story. Choice range is so wide!

 

 

Sport shoes?

 

Don't forget the sports stores. Sneakers may be worn out quite quickly. Luckily they're quite affordable for most of the brands we like.
