Skip into Spring with a pair of UMI

It's coming. Spring is slowly creeping in and I couldn't be more ecstatic. I'm not sure where you're from, but it's been a long, cold winter! I cannot wait for playing in the backyard, skipping down the street, and picnics in the park.

This spring, our tiny toes will be wearing none other than a cute pair of UMI. We've told you how we love them for Fall, we've raved about how playground tough they are, but oh how adorable they are for the warm weather of spring!

What's our favorite pair? My daughter will be wearing skipping around in a chocolate colored pair of barroca's ($65). I love them because they are super sturdy and won't fly off her feet when she's playing. I adore that you can see her little toes peaking out. And oh boy, how could I forget the boys! I am over the moon excited about the cool kid style of the Trek ($60) and the Coronado ($60).

It's true - yes you could could find cheaper shoes. But in the case of UMI - you get what you pay for. UMI shoes are made from high quality nappa and nubuck leather. Each and every pair of UMI's goes through 20 quality control checks. I guess you could say they take covering little feet very serious!
