The one with the narrow feet that's nearly impossible to fit. Because of the impossibility of fitting for shoes, we ended up this season with just sneakers that fit comfortably and supportively but are much too sporty for Shabbos. Paid $50 for those special little feet and now I'm so not interested in spending much more, but she does need something nice to wear on Shabbos and yomtov. Her old shoes are growing holes in the outersoles. Because it's only for Shabbos a great fit is not as important to me, but it needs to be just narrow enough to not be flopping around on her too much. Which rules out about 80% of all shoes made for kids.
Requesting any and all leads of shabbosdik shoes for a 6-year-old girl approximately size 12 a.k.a. 30, on the narrow side, wishfully within $15, and returnable.
I checked some obvious answers first, like Payless and Nordstrom Rack. Nothing to even look at in that size. Looked a little at Amazon but Amazon is so BIG I gave up for now. No time!

That's cute, stars.
I also refuse to spend crazy amounts on little girls shabbos shoes, and meanwhile I haven't... I think I can still get away with just weekday shoes...not for too long though. (For this reason I try to get weekday shoes that don't look very sporty!)

That was my strategy until now but we were desperate for new shoes, totally frustrated trying to find any (there was ONE that seemed to go great with her feet but had very very little room at the end, of course the next size was humongous, at least we have a starting point for the Fall search because maybe that next size will fit then) the sneakers fit and made her so happy, and hopefully being almost April hopefully they'll take her into the summer. So, $50 sneakers it is, and now we are officially initiated into the Shabbos-shoes club. Her previous shoes happened to be very pretty so she calls them her Shabbos shoes - they're patent leather so they still look great - but they literally have holes in the bottom and can't be fixed (we actually have a really cool good-old-fashioned shoemaker, but he says these rubber-soled kid shoes you really can't do anything. They can't hold a tap and can't be fixed.)
Thanks for the link, stars. It's a little frilly for me but will stay under consideration because options are slim right now...

I just noticed it says runs big. Maybe try two sizes and return whatever doesn't fit. I'm also not a frilly type but for once a week, meh. Plus it'll make one little girl very happy.

I was looking at that one too! Hey, as long as it's on prime I could theoretically order a whole shoe store here and just hope they don't cancel my account after all the returns.

DD had Zara's Shabbos shoes this past winter - bought them before Succos, and they lasted all season. She could still go on wearing them, but they are getting small. She also has narrow feet.
They were the t-bar shoe, though the winter color was more wine than claret in color.

My sister had it too. Great quality, I agree the color was darker.

Those Zara shoes which are $49 are 100% leather which is great for that price.

I've had success with Bella Marie shoes from Amazon for my daughter with narrow feet. Her last pair was the one with the T-strap posted above, and before that she had these:
https://www.amazon.com/BellaMa.....marie
The strap really helps it stay on nicely despite her narrow foot. I sometimes have to add a pad and/or heel grippers (see if you can find them at the dollar store).

Next direct has nice shoes. I ordered the one with the X elastic. Holds the foot very well and beautiful metalic color. Priced at $29 it's about midway from the cheap amazon to expensive in quality as well.
