Love Those Primigi Shoes

In Her Primigis
at Christmas
Grace has outgrown another pair of shoes. She now wears a size 6. With our Not-Made-in-China resolution, one might think it would be hard to find new shoes for her. One would be right.

However, last time we needed to purchase new shoes for Grace, I discovered Primigi shoes at Nordstrom. They are the only brand of toddler shoes that I have found that are not made in China. Primigi shoes are orthopedically friendly for kiddos her size, they are quite handsome, and they are made in Italy. Alas, they are made of leather, but in our guidelines for buying shoes for her, something had to give. Her last pair held up extremely well, and we are not so easy on our shoes around her. She was quite comfortable in them.

Yesterday we ordered a second pair for her, this time in brown. No doubt we will put them to the test. And I have confidence they will do quite well. Brand loyalty deserved.
