Flowers are blooming. Birds are chirping. Spring is here and the time has come to dust off the patio furniture and head outside. We are loving the opportunity to get outside and get some fresh air. We also love the opportunity for some fresh new shoes for spring. Whether you are looking for something for yourself, your husband, or your kiddos, we have you covered. Check out these perfect shoes for spring for everyone in your family.
Pediped
Springtime is the perfect time to clean out the house and start fresh. It is also the time we realize that our children have grown quite a bit since the beginning of the school year, and it is time for new shoes for spring. As parents, we want what is best for our children, and when it comes to shoes, we love Pediped.
Comfort that lasts all day is as important to physical well being as it is to mental well being (especially when it comes to parents!). Pediped stands out among the rest as feeling like the next best thing to bare feet. When it comes to foot health and development, Pediped shoes were among the first children’s footwear to be awarded the American Podiatric Medical Association Seal of Acceptance for promoting healthy foot development, and has since won several awards for comfort and health!
Their Flex line of shoes has been recognized as one of the healthiest shoes for growing feet, but the vibrant colors and patterns are the icing on the cake! The Gehrig, Adrian, and Force (pictured above) are a superhero-level combination for a little one with a busy schedule this summer! Force is offered in a variety of stunning and vibrant colors, so every kiddo in the house can wear a pair of these incredible shoes!
These machine-washable sneakers were made to keep up with the adventures that your little ones have planned every day. The Flex Fit system allows you to determine the proper fit of their shoe with removable inserts. This innovation is what keeps Pediped at the top of our list year after year.
The Flex Barbara is an adorable choice of shoes for spring for the little girl in your life who needs to wear a pair of shoes to match any occasion, but who still needs to be able to run and play. They are available in multiple patterns and, thanks to the Flex Fit system, the fit can be tightened or loosened based on how they feel on her feet. The flexible rubber sole and velcro closure give her all the control over her comfort that she will need throughout her day!
We also love Pediped’s Flex River, a shoe for every day and every type of play. The breathable mesh lining will keep your little girl’s foot cool, and the Quick-Dry EVA Footbed means that these shoes are water safe and can be worn to the beach and back home again. These are also machine-washable, so once they start to lose their vibrance, a quick trip through a wash cycle will have them looking and smelling fresh in no time.
This year, take the stress out of shopping for shoes for spring. Find your little one the perfect pair with Pediped – shoes so comfortable, they will forget they are wearing shoes at all!

Rothy’s
Sustainable fashion is all the rage as the weather warms and the springtime breezes blow. This season toss aside those bulky winter boots and update your shoe game with the best sustainable shoe styles out there from Rothy’s. We love Rothy’s for their washable, woven flats made from 100% recycled materials. These incredibly comfortable shoes, in any of their best selling styles, fit like a glove, with no time necessary for breaking them in or dealing with blisters, irritation or discomfort. Soft and cushiony, Rothy’s flats will keep up with you all season long, from the office to the soccer field, to Easter Sunday services with their wide variety of styles and colors.
This spring two of our favorite classics include the Loafer and the Sneaker. Perfect shoes for spring, the Loafer is a timeless and classic style that gently hugs the contours of your foot. Not too snug, these sustainable shoes, crafted of mainly repurposed water bottles, sport a seamless design making them easy to wear and comfortable as can be on day one, right out of the box. Dress the Loafer up or down for work to weekend wear that can go anywhere your day may take you.
For weekends spent outside with the kids or our spring break adventures, we love the more casual Sneaker. These slip-on sneakers have a higher sidewall and a bit more structured fit than other styles. Perfect for pairing with skirts, denim leggings and everything in between, you will live in your Rothy’s sneakers every chance you get making it ideal that they are machine washable too. Rothy’s commitment to sustainability means making shoes that you will love to wear that are built to last. As such, their shoes will withstand the test of time looking and feeling great wash after wash and wear after wear through all of life’s great adventures.

See Kai Run
We all want our children to have fresh shoes for spring, but parents know that it is not just about keeping their feet looking fresh. Children are constantly moving and growing faster than we can anticipate, so we want to make sure our children are wearing shoes that will keep their feet healthy and growing properly all year long. That is why we love See Kai Run for your family’s springtime shoe selections!
See Kai Run has new and exciting patterns every season, so it is easy to choose a color or style and stick with it as your little ones’ feet grow and grow. We especially love that our favorite shoes they wore as first-time walkers are with them as they climb and run as toddlers. See Kai Run creates colors and patterns for every child to enjoy, so siblings can enjoy matching springtime shoes! For brothers and sisters to have matching shoes, we love their Ryder style.
Children’s feet are not like our feet. They move more often and are very flexible, so doesn’t it make sense that your child’s new shoes for spring should be flexible too? See Kai Run created flexible shoes with a larger toe box so your child can not only move their foot comfortably, their toes can wiggle, too! These shoes, like the Ryder and Stevie styles, will also benefit your child’s development for proper balance, gait, and stride. They can go on amazing adventures fueled by imagination all day long, without having to worry about discomfort.
Springtime is filled with special celebrations, and when your little girl wants to pair her new dress or outfit with comfortable but fashionable footwear, the Gloria IV is there to answer the call. These sandals are all-leather, and the rubber outsole is strong enough to keep up with their all-day play!
These shoes are flexible, not only to promote comfort but so the muscles and tendons in the feet can be strengthened. The wide openings and secure closures make sure that these shoes slide on easily and stay on all day. For spring, we love the Kristin Rainbow Sequins for that extra dash of sparkle for her, and the Matty Chambray for that added sprinkle of dashing for him!
When it comes to shoe shopping this spring, parents are always looking for the shoe that will keep up with their children’s feet, keeping them happy and comfortable all day. See Kai Run is always working for your child’s fabulous foot health, so you do not have to worry about their shoes and you can relax and enjoy these precious times.

Florsheim
Here at Daily Mom we love kids’ styles that are trendy, yet made to last, especially for our rambunctious little boys. Forget the lights, neon colors, and fads, for some moms a timeless and classic style that can keep our little dudes looking dapper and gentlemen-like, just like dad, fits the bill. When it comes to boys, young men, and even men’s shoes, Florsheim is a company that has been designing high-quality, durable, and time-honored styles of men’s footwear since 1892.
This spring season we love the wide selection of white, cognac, and navy options that have been added to their casual and dress shoe collections for kids. One of our favorite shoes for spring includes the Great Lakes Jr. Wingtip Oxford in both Navy and Cognac. This easy to wear style can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. Crafted of premium leather with a slip-resistant, cushioned non-marking rubber outsole, he will be both comfortable and secure on his feet all day. Pair this style with everything from jeans to khakis for a classic or contemporary look.

Channel classic French style this spring with the Emma d’Orsay Oxford by Nisolo. This twist on the classic oxford look with their structured style and unexpected open side slits make these the perfect shoes for spring.

Birdies
If you have ever wished you could wear bedroom slippers all day long, but still want to maintain some level of style, then Birdies’ Starling brown leather loafer is everything you have ever wanted this spring and more! With an insole made of a soft, pillowy memory foam that hugs the bottom of your feet, and bolstered padding in the center of the shoe for arch support, you may forget you are wearing “real shoes.” In fact, much like slippers, these loafers don’t require any break-in period. From the moment you put them on your feet, they will feel as though they were made to be there.
We have found that this basic loafer style in brown leather goes well with any outfit. Could there be a more perfect pair of shoes for spring? If you are a low maintenance girl (like many of us), then these will easily dress up jeans or leggings. But feel free to dress them up – they also look great with a skirt or dress. Available in a variety of colors and materials (leather, suede, plush velvet, etc), we feel like there is a Birdie for everyone!

Nina Shoes
Planning to attend a wedding, the prom or a graduation party this spring? Not only do you need the perfect outfit or dress, but you also need the perfect pair of shoes. Nina’s Shoes has you covered for any occasion, and we are particularly excited about all the “rainbow” sparkles in their newest collection.
If you are looking for a fresh take on a classic black pump, you will love the fabulously covered in glitter, Brenda pump that sparkles with every step. Paired with dress pants or a black ball gown, the slim ankle strap and closed back give it a charming look that will please any scene.
On the other hand, if you are looking for shoes for spring that will steal the show, stop playing around and get a pair of Varena’s with rainbow stones. Less is more with these simply stunning straps covered with ombre-rainbow crystals that wrap around the ankle on this minimalist sandal. Whatever you do, if you own a pair of these gorgeous shoes, don’t hide them! They deserve to come out and play this spring.

Staheekum Boots and Slippers
The beautiful thing about spring is that it warms up enough to get yourself outside, but it is still cool enough to have some chilly evenings indoors (or even outdoors). This spring, as you head out to your favorite camping and hiking spots, grab some essentials like hiking boots and slippers from Staheekum. These Redwood Boots for men are the perfect spring boots to hike up your favorite trail or for an evening sitting around the campfire. The molded foam insole makes them comfortable to wear all day long, even for long hikes, and the leather outer sole makes them stylish. They will be your guy’s go-to boot for both outdoor adventures and even date nights.
You can cozy up by the campfire with these Edie slippers from Staheekum. You can snuggle up next to the campfire or on your couch with your favorite book and tea during those chilly spring evenings. The rubber outer sole makes them durable enough to wear outside, and the inner molded foam insole gives them cushiony comfort. These have got to be the coziest shoes for spring. The faux fur liner adds that additional cozy factor, making these a pair of slippers you might never want to take off. The stylish design makes them easy to wear with just about anything too, so you will still look cute even when you are cozy.

BILLY Footwear
We LOVE BILLY Footwear. Their shoes for spring offer a universal design that accommodates a lot of special needs by incorporating zippers that go along the side of the shoes and around the toe, allowing the upper of each shoe to open and fold over completely. No more Velcro. No more stuffing your feet into shoes. Just easy and comfortable.
Our kids love BILLY shoes so much that they really don’t want to wear any other pair of shoes, especially when they saw the newest spring designs! The Sherbert Tie Dye high-tops are the equivalent of the perfect bowl of rainbow unicorn ice cream on a hot summer day. Delicious! The colors go with everything and our little girl’s eyes doubled in size when she saw them (so we can only assume that other girls would have similar reactions).
The Natural Camo high-tops are similar to another pair of camo prints available but have a slightly lighter design. These are really our go-to for little boys. The original camo print has yet to lead us astray, so we are quite optimistic about this natural shade. If your kiddo is into camo, go ahead and get a pair!

Western Chief
April showers bring May flowers, but until then we have to deal with some rain! Thankfully, Western Chief is going to keep our feet warm and dry and we do not have to wait for May for vibrant colors! Western Chief rain boots are not only some of the best-selling rain boots for men, women, and children on the market, but they look great too!
Springtime adventures can lead you to places that may or may not end up getting a little dirty, but no matter where your plans lead, the Top Pop Mid Rain Boot is the best footwear choice.
This vivid pop of color on these high-shine rain boots is only a fraction of what makes this mid-height boot a popular choice in shoes for spring. The cotton lining is moisture-absorbing and the top strap is adjustable with a gusset, so no matter how wet your spring plans get, your feet will stay warm, dry, and adorable.
For a more intense water-protective boot, the Raindrop Dot Vari-Fit Rain Boot is the one for you. This boot is 100% waterproof with an ultra-soft cotton lining. With a comfortable platform and removable insole (Easy cleaning FTW!), these boots have a traction rubber outsole that is sturdy and will keep you standing, not slipping.
