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?

And being kids meant running around, getting dirty, and kicking balls. None of which you can do in heels. Stop trying to make our little girls grow up so fast, girls that young have NO business wearing heels, it's ridiculous. This is how little girls should be:
High heels on a special occacion...Maybe...
High heels on play time..No Way in Hell!
Additionally, the excessive height (relative to a child's size) will lead to twisted and broken ankles when the child turn wrong and falls. Of course, this will lead to lawsuits against the manufacturer(s), designers, and resellers, so it may be a boon to lawyers everywhere.
Bad idea.
Let kids be kids and not be objects or some fashion statement.
and still your an idiot...
Unfortunately, our bodies aren't designed for that type of stress. The spongy nature and lack of arch support found in many flip-flops causes the feet to roll inward toward each other causing pain and injury to the arch as well as plantar fasciitis. And if you're not flat foot, you actually could become flat foot by wearing poorly made flip flops.
