1. Obviously .. the 'designer' is completely detached from the REALITY of Toddlerhood .. which is running about .. enjoying playtime .. growing and living lives ..
2. BONES in toddlers are definitely in the formative stages .. these HEELS .. even in adulthood .. are a strain on one's back and legs .. (I don't even wear heels .. and I'm in my elder years .. they are far too painful indeed)
Just INSANE ..
TODDLERS do not give one bit of CARE about 'sophistication' ..
and are more interested in playing with the BOX ..
taking the rhinestones out to glue onto cards for grandparents and parents ..
having FUN playing ..
than about how one 'looks' ..
(trust me .. there's no toddler I know that would even TOLERATE these on them .. )
Just wondering .. is this pandering to the "TODDLERS and Tiaras" crowd?
(Shudder)

These fashionable wedge heels look perfect for summer. Only problem is, they’re for toddlers. Yes, that's right: Michael Kors has unveiled the Keely Wedge in sizes 1-5 Youth. You no longer have to wait for your teen years to be stylish.
The description for the heels read: “Geometric cutouts and shimmering rhinestone studs combine to offer the fashion forward Keely wedge from KORS Michael Kors Kids. This spunky sandal sports a zip heel for easy dressing, and elasticized straps for ultimate comfort. A covered wedge heel adds chic sophistication.”
Sophistication? For an eight-year-old? Parenting blog Babble compares them to “stripper shoes,” but we think they are going a bit too far. These shoes are pretty cute, and could even work for a tween. But for little girls, they are a bit ridiculous. What do you think?

Toddlers should NOT be wearing these!
As for a medical stand point (I'm an EMT/Firefighter) the little ones are still growing. It can cause severe harm to bone, ligament, tendon, & muscle that hasn't had the chance to fully develop yet.
i would have loved to wear a pair of those, but after 5 mins, back to allstar converse !
and it isnt good for the bones or back, no matter how old you are. and worse for little kids, whose bones arent as strong as they will get!
(I can barely understand why teens my age want to wear them.)
Children's feet are still growing they should wear shoes that support and protect their feet. There will be plenty of time to wear high heels when they are older.
