The color started peeling off the target natives within days. They refunded my money and they stand behind their products so I am trying again this year.

I believe you. But I don't think they were a "thing" here, or I'm sure my DD would've mentioned them Wink

. and I've never seen them.

My toddler wore them all summer and I didn’t notice any color wearing but maybe it depends on the color? Or I just didn’t notice it lol

My big girls were asking for slides but I don’t feel like they replace natives.

We don’t have an eruv so slides on Shabbos can be problematic.
And the girls play tons of jump rope and other games I make them change out of their Shabbos shoes and natives seem to work best for running around Shabbos afternoon.

I found on amazon for $20. Look around, prices fluctuate all the time and it depends on style and size.

Am I the only one who's kids can't wear natives? They have high arches and it never fits them properly. It's so difficult finding a good replacement natives are just a perfect combo

I’m not in the us, so don’t know much about these!

When do kids wear them? Are they a replacement for sneakers? I assume they get worn without socks?

In or out my kids live in them. I ordered 2 pairs this week.

Do they stretch with wear? Dd outgrew her natives so I ordered the next size and it fits very perfectly. The next size after that is a bit too big. If they stretch I’d stay with the smaller one. Otherwise she’ll outgrow it in no time.
