Crocs Kids' Classic Fuzzy Slippers - Soft & Comfortable Slip-On Indoor Shoes for Boys & Girls | Perfect for Home, School & Winter Wear

My two and a half year old has short, chubby feet. At first I thought he wouldn't be able to wear these at all because the strap was so tight we couldn't even get his foot in them, even though they were a little big in length. I ended up ordering house shoes from two other brands - one brand made his feet incredibly stinky, and I was worried the other wasn't good for his feet because the soles were so stiff and the toes were narrower. Eventually I cut the straps off the crocs, stuffed some lacrosse balls in them overnight to stretch the instep out, and now he can wear them as slippers.I know it's weird I'm giving 4 stars to something I had to modify, but they work great now, and they're the only toddler house shoe I could find that lets him have relatively natural foot mechanics. I also think the strap would be fine for many kids - my son's feet are exceptionally rounded and chubby on the instep, well outside the norm for most kids.
