TinySoles Testers

Congrats to Nikki and Carmel, who were just picked to be TinySoles Testers. We will be sending them out some new Fall gear this week to try out and look forward to seeing their reviews!

LAST CALL for Testers, get your reviews in as we are picking our last 2 Testers this coming Friday. Check out the sample box that went out to one of our testers last week!

New See Kai Run are here

The brand spankin' new Fall 09 collection by See Kai Run, including their soft sole line Smaller, is NOW in stock at TinySoles. With 32 delicious NEW styles and 6 reruns of old faves, this new collection is definitely worth drooling over. Pink and brown fans will dig the Rebekah, classics will love the Brenna and for something with a little sparkle, the Jennifer Lee is a must. If you were a fan of the Elias or Oliver, then you'll love the Samuel and Coleman, and for something a little more edgy checkout out the Justin. Little feet will be happy to see that the Monica and Tamar are back, alongside a ton of new irresistible styles that will have you in Mary Jane and sneaker heaven. Oh, Smaller also now comes in a larger 18-24 month size! We dare you to click here to see for yourself. Giveaway coming soon!

New pediped originals

Just a quick post to let you know that the NEW Fall pediped Originals are NOW in stock at TinySoles! There are some really cute new styles like the chocolate brown mary jane Ashley that is covered with sweet pink hearts, the pink and brown striped Ava, the distressed chocolate brown Ace and a new version of the Caroline in a chocolate nubuck with embroidered flowers. More information to come and maybe even a giveaway, so stay tuned! Click here to check out all our new styles.

New Robeez - High Top Heaven!

Brand NEW Fall 09 styles of Robeez soft soles and Mini Shoez are NOW in stock at TinySoles! This new collection features all the classic styles you'd expect in fall colors PLUS a bunch of edgy new designs like the high tops shown above! With over 17 new soft sole styles (0-4 years) and 20 new Mini Shoez styles (US 2-5) there's something for everyone. Plus Robeez have a couple of NEW practical and adorable boots arriving soon, so watch out for those!

Staff Picks: I asked several of our shoe specialists to pick out their fave from the NEW Fall collection and hands down EVERYBODY picked the Hippie High Top (shown top left). For some it was nostalgic, others just thought it was too cute. Other adjectives used included fun, original, unique, colorful - you catch my drift. So after hearing the same response over and over and over, I made them choose their next fave!

Judy - Chickadee (soft sole)
"I love the colors and the picture theme covers all the things I love."

Jenny - Knighted Fox (soft sole)
"Hands down I was completely taken by the soft sole Knighted Fox in Brown. I know I am partial to boy's shoes having only a boy myself, but this is a really cool fresh take on a character style that Robeez has not done before. I think these would be especially cute on a new or adventurous walker. Watch out Dragons your little guy will save the day in these Knightly shoes."

Jackie - Urban High Top (Mini Shoez)
"I love the orange contrast to the brown shoe. Perfect for a future Larry Bird/Michael Jordan or even a future Sue Bird/Lauren Jackson (my husband is an Aussie). As a former tomboy I think this shoe would be cute as heck for either boy or girl."

Sammy - another vote for the Knighted Fox!

Sheri - Koala (soft sole)
Come on, do we really need to ask why? If you have ever talked to Sheri on the phone, then you get that this is an Aussie thing. BTW, she also likes the fluffy ears!

I agree with all of the above picks including the Hippie High Top! I also want to throw the Patchwork Heart soft sole moccasin style into the list. I think it would look too cute with a pair of jeans or tights and a skirt!

Testers Needed

Do you blog, have kids that play hard or just like free stuff? Then we’re looking for you. Did we get your attention? As fans of TinySoles, you know that the backbone of what makes TinySoles the BEST place to buy kids shoes is that we know our stuff. That’s right, we hand pick everything we sell and we kid test it, parent approve it. No corporate buyers looking for the latest fashions here, just parents looking for the best products for their kids’ period. We were the FIRST shoe store to specialize in baby, toddler and kids shoes and we pride ourselves on our knowledge of little feet. Our specialty and hands on experience approach allows us to stand behind EVERYTHING we sell and offer you the BEST customer service possible.

Ahem, with that said, we have found ourselves in a pickle. We have hundreds of brand NEW fabulous products arriving at TinySoles over the next couple of months (this should be our best season yet!) and only SO many little feet to test them out. And believe me we try hard, our kids could rival Imelda any day! So we are looking for some little feet to help us out. What’s that mean for you? Some FREE brand new, hot sizzling fall product!!! And here’s how to get your hands on some:

All you have to do is go to tinysoles.com and leave a product review for any and all products you have ever personally used that are sold at TinySoles. It doesn’t even matter if you didn’t buy it from us! The more you review, the better your chance. We and all future shoppers are relying on your honest review of the product including but not limited to fit tips, quality, age/stage appropriateness, and uses that you may have never thought of if you hadn’t seen it! We encourage the good, bad and even the ugly, but PG rated of course. Then come back here and post a comment or email marketing@tinysoles.com letting us know your reviewer name, all the products you left a review for, your kid/s genders and shoe sizes. You can post all at once or as many times as you need to over the next 3 weeks. Caution – if you are logged into your TinySoles account while leaving a review it WILL publish your email with the review. You do not need to be logged into or have a TinySoles account to leave a review.

We will read all the reviews weekly and pick out our fave 2 every Friday for the next 3 weeks (7/17, 7/24, 7/31). We will then send those 6 lucky reviewers FREE brand spankin’ new Fall product to love and abuse. And you're gonna want in on this, coz there's some great stuff coming! If you’re selected as a reviewer, then we ask that once you’ve gotten a good feel for the product, you write a review for it that we can share on our BLOG with all our shoe lovin' fans. You get free product, we get real product knowledge. The circle is complete. Happy reviewing!
