Umi kids shoes go sporty. And we likey.
Ever since discovering Umi shoes, my kiddos and their long, narrow feet live in their sandals all summer long. But now they've added a new sport line which I'm completely in love with. Once you see how fab they are, you will be too. I admit that discovering the new UmiSport kids shoes are completely machine washable is a big seller for me. And that they come with a removable anti-bacterial footbed that will help keep your kids' feet stay fresh and dry. (I'm not the only one with a stinky, sweaty-footed kid, right?) But really, I'm impressed that aside from the one pair with a subtle pink stripe, the shoes are gender neutral; that means if you have an orange or blue loving girl, she can finally get sneakers without all the glitter and bling. Do you know how hard it is to find that? Like the Umi sandals that last us an entire summer (along with several more, thanks to hand-me-downs), the UmiSport sneakers are as sturdy as they are comfortable. Just ask my son who practically refuses to take them off. -Kristen You can purchase the new UmiSport shoes at Umishoes.com. And for 24 hours only, you can score an 40% off all clearance styles with "SPECIAL40" - awesome!
