As a premium infant brand, Robeez by Stride Rite was created by a mom for moms who want only the best for their children by providing the perfect learning-to-walk experience. The Robeez by Stride Rite Soft Soles feature leather uppers, a suede non-slip sole and an elasticized easy-on, stay-on design to protect little feet and give them room to grow. From the fit to the finishing details, the Fall 2011 Robeez Layette apparel items are designed to complement the Soft Soles with two-piece bodysuit-pant sets and two-piece footie-cap sets featuring cuddly soft 100% brushed cotton, signature Robeez embroidered motifs, and kimono snap closures for easy changing. The bodysuit-pant sets feature sweet ruffle details for girls and stylish cargo pant pockets for boys.

- Boys: Up, Up & Away Airplane, Monkeying Around
