Crocs Kids' Crocband II.5 Gust Boot - Waterproof Winter Snow Boots for Boys & Girls - Comfortable & Lightweight for Outdoor Play, School & Cold Weather Activities

Our 21 months old daughter is on shorter side and I was afraid the shoes would be too tall for her.S he also has high arch and wide foot. They fit her really good. These shoes do not have thick insolation on the bottom, but it does not seem to be a problem so far. We had few 25F mornings and her feet were warm after we got inside after 2 hours. But she walks and runs most of the time, so as long as you keep moving, you stay warm :).She is able to put them on/off without any problem. She loves to play in water and she can do it with these shoes. The soles are pretty hard to my liking. More flexibility seems to be better and more comfortable for walking, but as I watch her, she does not seem to have a problem with it. These should be good shoes for winter and early spring (we live in western NC). I gave it four stars because of the hard sole.Update 1/25/2014We had some cold weather in WNC. Here is a little update on these shoes which our daughter loves.*around 20F (no wind, sunny) - one pair of regular thickness socks - after hour of walking outside her feet were still warm*around 15F (no wind, sunny) - two pairs of regular thickness socks (we bought her size bigger shoes so she has a space for extra sock or her foot to grow) - after half an hour her feet were still warm, we had more issue with cold fingers and face*around 10F (no wind, sunny) - two pairs of regular thickness socks - after 20 minutes her feet were still warm. We did one pair of socks for 20 minutes and her feet were cold, not freezing, but enough to bother her since her fingers and face were cold also.Overall...still really good shoes for our weather...keep her feet warm and dry and the hard shoe's soles do not seem to be a problem.Update 9/2015:We have bought another pair of these shoes for last winter. My girl was 3 years old. She did not have any trouble to walk in the shoes, but started to have problem with water from melted snow getting inside. She jumped and ran more through puddles and wet snow comparing to year before. She had winter pants or rain pants with elastic at the bottom, but still her shoes were getting wet. The bottom part under ankles is waterproof, the part above it is water resistant, but probably not too much. The waterproof part should be above their ankles. We ended up using rubber boots during melting season. So I would use it only for dry winter or not wet snow winter, which means "not good all winter boots".
