The weather is gorgeous outside here, which means my kids are respectively jumping in puddles, cutting the grass, and going for hikes on muddy trails — all in the shoes they’ve been wearing all winter. Which means: it’s time for some new shoes while we retire last seasons’s shoes to the “wear outside when you’re going to get messy” pile.
When I shop at Converse, I know it’s one place all my kids will be happy, from my elementary school child to my college kid. For the older kids, we’re going classic All Star Canvas High Tops. I’m kinda obsessed with the Mineral Brew Grey color for spring.
For my high schooler, these customized Run Star Trainers (also at top) are so fun—you get to personally choose every color or pattern on the shoe. And hey, if your kiddo likes to switch to sneakers for their after-prom parties, these are a perfect way to match to their dress. How fun!
For your littlest kids, Converse has a whole range of easy-on shoes that don’t require tying laces quite yet. I love this classic black-and-white combo, but this style also comes in a lovely lilac for spring.
One final mom pro-tip for you here: my youngest loved the classic low-top Converse style but isn’t able to tie laces yet, so we ordered a pair of elastic no-tie shoe laces to use in her shoes and they slip on like a dream!
