Kids will often go through dozens of pairs of shoes over the course of their youth, so the GroFive 'Expandals' have been created to help parents save money and resources by curbing the constant need for new footwear.
Capable of expanding up to five sizes, the sandals are adjustable in three areas of the shoe to ensure they will provide a customized fit and be suitable for multiple years of wear rather than just one season. The rugged design of the sandals makes them durable enough to withstand the rigors they're put through by children as they play, hike or enjoy time with friends.
The GroFive 'Expandals' come in several color options to make them suitable for children of all genders and even come in adult sizes to help parents get a pair for themselves.
