My two youngest daughters have each have 5 or 6 pairs of Soft Stars, and I currently have 7. I got the first pair as part of my “sales kit” and three of my children wore them. Thanks to Soft Star for sponsoring this giveaway! I have been a Soft Star fan for at least 20 years, but I couldn’t afford my first pair until I joined a now defunct MLM company that sold Soft Stars. All the winner’s entries will be verified.Ĭlick here to check out my other open giveaways and be sure to follow me on Facebook! This giveaway is open to residents of Canada and the US, 18+. I know you’ll love them as much as we do! Enter in the giveaway widget below. I’m really excited to give one of my readers a $100 gift card to pick up a pair of Softstar sandals or shoes of their own.

When shipping to Canada, Softstar adds a NAFTA sticker to each box so you won’t be surprised by duty charges at delivery. Our sandals are just as comfortable as we remember, and we wear them everywhere! The toe openings are designed small enough that little feet don’t slip through the front, even if you order sandals that are a bit roomier. We followed their advice and got a size 10, and they fit Kay comfortably with a little extra room to grow. Sandal sizes tend to run a bit big, so Softstar recommends going a size down from their regular size. Kay upgraded to the Velcro because it’s the easiest for her to put on and take off by herself. When you design your own child sandal you can choose from 23 colours of leather, 9 cutout motifs or a sewn on leather flower, plus you have the option of laces, an elastic closure, or Velcro. Kay designed this pretty pair of Custom Child Sandals ($60+) herself in matching pewter full grain leather with a shiny ruby strap and a sweet flower cut-out detail. I was able to walk around in these all day from the very first time I put them on. I promise you: there’s no chafing, no blisters, no rubbing.

The new sandals are a little snugger than the old pair (cuz leather stretches over the course of two years), but they’re perfectly comfortable and, best of all, there’s no break-in period. I chose shiny pewter leather this time, with a white leather flower applique. Softstar offers 17 colours of buttery soft leather to choose from, including a couple of vegetable tanned options from the Ecopell tannery in Germany, considered to be the most natural and sustainable leather in the world. I was excited to pick out another pair of Custom Solstice Sandals ($110) for this review. They’re really comfortable for my mom feet too! The flexible soles mimic barefoot walking, a must for developing feet like Kay’s. Softstar handcrafts all their minimal shoes and sandals in their Oregon workshop from breathable, formaldehyde-free leather and ultra thin, ultra durable rubber Vibram soles. In fact, we loved our sandals so much, we couldn’t wait to get our feet into a new set of mother and daughter Softstar sandals this summer! Some of the tread is worn, but these soles have outlasted several pairs of shoes bought after I got these sandals, and there’s still plenty of life left in them. I remember back when I first got them, I was unsure if the thin rubber soles would hold up. The quality of these sandals is phenomenal. They’re definitely battle-scarred, but they’re still unbelievably comfortable and haven’t had one tear or loose stitch in two years They’ve been sweat on, rained on, and once had a cup of soda dropped on them too. Kay has long since outgrown hers of course, but here are my very well-worn and well-loved sandals after wearing them through the spring, summer, and fall for two years.
