It's the middle of summer, why can't I find anymore sandals for my toddler?

My daughter out grew her sandals already (I thought I had bought them big) and I've been to many stores and can't find anymore sandals. It's always whatever is left and none in her


size. I tried Zappos.com, but they are way too expensive. Why do stores jump way ahead seasonally? She now has no sandals that fit and its July.

It's the middle of summer, why can't I find anymore sandals for my toddler?
companies are gay...


they start bringing summer in way to early..then start removing it when summer has just begun..and they start bringing in warm clothing..





its just stupidity
Reply:Funny you say that because I went to the store like 2 weeks ago for some floaties for my 3 year old and they were out at like 5 different stores. But anyways try Old Navy or if they have a Fallas Paredes where you are they may have some, I just went there last week and they had a lot.
Reply:you can still get sandals they have in the stores all summer.
Reply:Seriously, check out Landsend ( http://www.landsend.com/cgi-bin/search.c... ), JCPenney ( http://www3.jcpenney.com/jcp/ProductList... ), and Overstock.com ( http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?... ). I find the best deals after the official "season" and am often able to pay express shipping on items without paying more than the item is worth. The links should take you directly to the site. On line shopping ROCKS!
Reply:You and I are in the same boat...when you find out let me know!!
Reply:I just bought my toddler beach shoes and sandals at Payless Shoes and Old Navy. I found a decent selection at both places. If you don't have these stores near you I'm sure you can get the sandals at their websites. I always have the problem you're having with winter slippers! My daughter's foot size seems to change halfway through the season!
Reply:I work in a retail store and they are getting rid of summer and bringing in fall items they go by the seasons I live in florida and its that way here to..
Reply:they do that so you can get good sales on stuff before summer ends.
Reply:Easy answer to your problem. EBay!!!


You can find all sizes and they aren't expensive.


I agree with you, it is so frustrating how its summer time and all the stores are already starting to put winter clothes out. I hate that.


Good luck and check out eBay.
Reply:Go to Old navy, Children's Place, or somewhere similar's website and check out their clearance section. There should be leftover summer sandals there. (you can also stock up for next year or season to season items for cheap!!) Good Luck!
Reply:Stores change over stock in the middle of one season for the next. Since most children go back to school in August, late July is when you start to see fall clothes. Keep your eye out for someplace having a summer clearance and you may be able to find some. Or if you have one in your area try shoe stores like DSW or Payless..they may still have some.

Reply:its really annoying, isn't it? for some reason, retail stores are 4 or 5 months ahead of the seasons, and never buy enough to last through the season. Its because manufacturers tell them when they are making new lines, and they have to buy then, or go without. Try the little mom and pop shoe stores downtown, away from the malls and big shopping centres. Or try second hand stores. Other people have the same problem as you, and often trade in perfectly good sandals for a lot less than regular store prices. We were looking for shoes for my grandson a few days ago, and couldn't find any in his size either. I fear we will have to settle for the crap they sell at wal-mart.
Reply:Cause Santa Claus is coming to town and he doesn't wear sandals.
Reply:Try wal-mart, K-mart, any shoe store around, or dollor Genral. If that all fails...where do you live, they need some sandals!
Reply:This is about the time of year they put out the Fall stuff since it's about time for back to school.
