any experience with Jumping Jacks or RSVP shoes?

[nicknack]

I need to buy a few pairs for Maeve for the fall (she's about 18 months) and these brands both look cute on Zappos.

Any feedback about these?

Thanks!

Jumping Jacks are sold at the same stores as Stride Rite around here... So far as construction, they are nice, mid-range shoes. Not Primigi/Naturino, but solid everyday shoes.

I never liked the girl's styles so much in the past, but I'm in love with this year's collection. I just bought a pair for my twins, Blythe and Charlotte (whose middle name is Maeve, BTW). I used to get them for my son when he was younger and they held up well.

I loved JJs when dd was the same age. They were comfortable, cute, and held up well. While they did cost $$, they didn't break the bank (like Italian or German brands).

My 18 month old daughter has been wearing Jumping Jack sandals all summer (from the Basically Barefoot line). She asks to wear them so she seems to find them comfortable. She has pretty narrow feet and I was having a hard time finding shoes that weren't too wide and floppy for her. The Jumping Jacks fit her quite nicely.

My dd had wide feet, but not wide enough for SKRs, and she was wearing JJs wides. (Just wanted to add this, in case someone thought JJs generally run narrow.)
