I have late walkers (15-18 months) I find stretchies to be Babyish past a year. I certainly stop them before they walk

I do stretchies until 2-3 months. I find the kind with the snaps in the back impractical and all the other kinds often look like pajamas to me. I find pants and bodysuits easier and cuter once they are more awake and alert.

My 15 month old is still in stretchie for PJs. For daytime until he started taking steps and it was hard for him to walk. He also had regular clothing though. I find they stretchies are neat and easier to hold the kid without anything riding up (I do not like the look of body suits and leggings)

once they start crawling, the feet get tangled and the knees get ruined

It depends what look you like and how big the kid is.
If you like babying your babies keep them in stretchies.
Some ppl like 2 pieces for changing pampers - no snaps/buttons
Some feel stretchies are neater
If you like the look of shorts have that in mind while you shop but also keep in mind that there are rainy days where they can’t be naked… so have one or two longs.
As far as what I did, my older ones had 2 pieces very early, my youngest had stretchies till she walked as I was trying to hold onto her baby stage… tbh I regretted not having the other ones in stretchies longer I felt like she looked neater and was easier to cuddle in a stretchie. She did wear shorts and bubbles in the summer and I went back to stretchies after.
On a side note, have in mind that for really young babies there is very little time that they can wear real shorts (tops 3 month) so have that in mind when you shop.
Hatzlacha and enjoy every second of babyhood!!

I love stretchies! My 13 month old is still wearing them all the time. I don't really get why people feel it would interfere with walking. I stop using stretchies during the day when we start with shoes (although I would still put on a footless stretchie). And my kids love sleepers, wear them until 5 or 6 years old!

Strechies are my favorite!
My babies wear them until no stores have any that fit. I legit know which company 18 months runs biggest. Lol.
They look so cute and cozy in them.
Obviously they only wear them at home and for pjs once they hit a certain age. But they are the best.

Do you mean rompers when you say shorts? (Shorts usually mean short pants )

I bought only velour one for the winter when my baby turned one and he wears it almost every night. It’s so cuddly and cute. He is small and in the largest size I can see most babies outgrowing it by a year.

I consider them daywear from 0-4/5 months, maybe until 6 months on Shabbos. By that point I’m doing onesies and pants/shorts, or bubbles.

I'm thinking my sister had my nephew in leggings and top, vs. stretchies, when he started moving (crawling, etc...) because once they are on the go, they get their foot out of the leg area of the stretchy. They need pants so they can move.

4-6 months. Once they're crawling and pulling themselves up, they need the friction on the bottom of their feet. Also, pants are easier to replace when they tear at the knees.
