My daughter is 2 year-old and needs new shoes. I have bought shoes for her over the internet previously, so I'm willing to to it again, but I would prefer to go to the store with her so she can try them on. I love Winners, but they don't always have what I need when I need it... I have also been to Browns, but I wouldn't mind finding something cheaper.
I'm in the Toronto area.
Has any one tried Zappos Canada?

Thanks

I really like Soft Moc. They have an online store and many locations as well, I can't find the list but some are sure to be around Toronto.

They send me a 20% off coupon after each order and when I combine this with sale prices it's a great deal. Fast shipping too.

The only downside is that their Stride Rite selection is dwindling...I hope they get new stock soon!

Browns has some great sales on right now. Go to a mall and see what they have in your location. Ours had lots of really nice kids shoes! I think they even had a buy one get the 2nd 25% off promotion on sale merchandise.

Honestly, though, I started buying cheaper shoes for DS2 when he got to be 2. He has hard to fit feet (very chubby), but he is also very picky about his shoes. I finally had to resort to buying fun shoes or just whatever fit for him. Currently he wears Kangaroos (from Shoe Warehouse or Sears), a pair of really cool Vans (gift from BIL) and a pair of sandals from Baby Gap. His next shoes are already waiting for him, from Winners. As you can see, I buy shoes just about anywhere. I do still prefer the European styling and sizing that I can get at Browns (or Soft Moc), but I am not as picky as I was when DS2 was younger.

Thanks for the tip about Browns!
I went today and got her two pairs of Mary Jane (one for now and one for the fall) for $43! The store I went to didn't have a great selection but I going to visit my family next week and they have a store with a great children's selection there. Hopefully, they still have good ones in my daughter's size, I would like to get her something more like a sport shoe/running shoe and they didn't have much left for toddler girls.
I also went to Panda and they barely had anything on sale and what was on sale was only 25% off.
Thanks again
