My grandson started with the Skipper Mesh walker this past summer and loved them. Now that the weather is cooler, and he needs to wear socks with his shoes, it is a bit difficult getting them on with that style. However, the Oscar Canvas Sneaker is the remedy. They are easy to get on with his socks on, and the velcro straps makes them stay in place. Luckily, my grandson does not try to pry the velcro straps, he is just happy wearing the sneakers. And his parents are happy too.
