Would you recommend this to other mums?

These are gorgeous to put on with most outfits and, look so adorable on! I would recommend them without a doubt, as they are not only visually fantastic, but feel comfortable for baby and keep their little toes nice and protected. They are a reasonable price and very in trend, and go lovely with most outfits as an added extra. Such a great product!

How did the product make your life easier?

These are gorgeous little pram shoes that are not only a fantastic accessory to my baby’s wardrobe, but also protect baby’s feet, meaning those toes are nice and safe and warm. This product has made my life due to being so convenient and easy to put on baby’s feet, making them a great option to wear when popping out and keeping baby’s feet safe and warm.

Would you choose this product to win?

I love the opportunity to personalise these trainers, providing an added bonus to the quality of the product. The presentation and the quality of the box in which the product comes in is also lovely. This product looks great and is very high end, yet is a reasonable price! The quality of the material is also of a high end, too. Such lovely detail on the shoes!

What changes would you make to the product?

I cannot actually see anything on this product that I could think of changing. It has so many great features, all of which, I feel, are so well designed. The wipeable toe tips are fantastic, as they mean that it's easy to keep them clean and also keep them looking a lovely bright colour.

Tested by mum Danielle Law for the Mother & Baby Awards 2018:

Would you recommend this to other mums?

I would certainly recommend this product to my friends because they are really nice shoes for babies. The quality is really good, and the way they have designed and personalised them is brilliant. They are very easy to put on children's feet; you can slip them on with just one hand! Overall, a great product, and they look really nice and smart too!

How did this product make your life easier?

This product makes my life easier as a mum because the shoes are very easy to put on my son’s feet, saving me time before going out with him. I'm happy knowing my son’s feet are nice and warm in the white high top personalised trainers. Before I received them, I didn't use any other shoes as they didn't tend to fit, but these ones fit perfectly.

Would you choose this product to win?

Yes, I would. This product has a great design, and they are a really nice and smart pair of shoes that can be made even more special, as you can get them personalised to your child's name. The thread of the writing really stood out from the shoe, creating a nice design. I think this product should win, without doubt.

What changes would you make to this product?

If I could change a thing about the product it would be to make the shoes a bit thinner, because I feel that the shoes are a tad too wide for a baby’s tiny little feet. Other than that, they are brilliant. Because the shoes are wide, it makes the shoes look very big on my child's feet, though they fit perfectly in regards to length.

Tested by mum Joanna Hayward for the Mother & Baby Awards 2018:

Would you recommend this to other mums?

I would recommend this product to other people as they are the perfect keepsake of your baby’s first pair of shoes. I wouldn't, however, recommend them for wear every day, and the material is the type where it would be difficult to get a stain out of, so although we used these frequently, if I were to purchase them myself, I'd only do so as to have a keepsake item as opposed to using them for everyday wear! I absolutely loved the personalisation on them, and they came in a beautiful keepsake box with lovely wrapping. The presentation was first class.

How did this product make your life easier?

I didn't find that this item made my life easier as a mother, as it was another item of clothing to put on and an item that didn't like to stay on the foot, so I kept worrying about losing them. However, I found the item very trendy, and we did get a lot of comments about them. I think they are the perfect keepsake present and ideal for either a boy or a girl. I found that the product was clearly a ‘for show’ item, and wasn't a necessity for my baby. That said, she did look very trendy.

Would you choose this product to win?

I would definitely choose these as a gift for a friend or family member. I don't think I would have bought them, personally, as other leading brands are more cost effective and, in my opinion, better made. I definitely think the personalisation adds to this product and makes the item bespoke, and I really think there is a market for such an item.

What changes would you make to this product?

The only think I would change about the product is at the bottom of the shoe where the blue line is, where I think the stitching could be a little tidier where the two ends meet. I think it would make it a little easier if there was a zip at the sides, as this would make it easier for the parent to put the shoe on, and maybe help the shoe stay on for longer, as I found the shoe came off quite easily.

Tested by mum Jordan Grange for the Mother & Baby Awards 2018:

Would you recommend this to other mums?

I would definitely recommend this product. The boots come in a beautiful sturdy box and are wrapped in tissue to protect them, along with a lovely little note inside. The personalised name on the side is very well stitched on and looks really good. They would make a great gift for new mums or for christenings, etc.

How did this product make your life easier?

These boots are so soft and I found them very easy to fit on my son’s feet. They also look lovely with any outfit due to being plain white. I don't have to worry about buying different shoes to go with different outfits anymore! They go on really quickly, and can be taken off quickly too, especially with a wriggly baby!

Would you choose this product to win?

I have never seen personalised boots like these before, but would pick these if there were others, as they are presented in a beautiful box and are a really well-made pair of little boots. They stand out because of the box, which really makes them look more expensive than they are. I love the fact that they can be personalised with your baby’s name on them, too.

What changes would you make to this product?

I feel that the boots for twelve to eighteen months should have a more solid bottom on them due to some babies being able to walk at this age. It would probably stop some mums from buying these because of this. I would also suggest making them slightly bigger, as I feel that baby’s feet grow out of them quite quickly.

Tested by mum Amy Hesp for the Mother & Baby Awards 2018:

Would you recommend this to other mums?

They are a lovely gift. They are of a very high quality, and make a lovely keepsake. I would recommend this product on its quality and as a lovely gift, but not for its practicality. I loved the personalisation and the colours, as it meant they could go with most choices of outfit. They look really nice and smart when on.

How did this product make your life easier?

The product doesn't make life as a mum any easier, however, they do look very smart when on. I am always in two minds regarding pram shoes, as they are just for show purposes only. They have no practical use, and often make getting ready longer as you wrestle to get them on. These high tops are of a very good quality though.

Would you choose this product to win?

I think they are quite expensive for pram shoes that have no practicality to them. They are, however, of a very high quality, and look lovely after being personalised. In relation to quality then I would rate this product very highly above others on the market. In relation to cost, there are others available that are cheaper.

What changes would you make to this product?

There's nothing I would change about the actual product. The quality of the material is very high, the finish is brilliant and the presentation on delivery is fantastic. The only thing I would change is the cost. They are quite expensive for a pair of baby shoes. They would make a lovely gift. Preparing for a baby is very expensive and I believe these are an expense that is a bit too high.
