Congratulations to our winner, commenter #24 – Madeline!

I have read many reviews about the resort we’re visiting in just a few short weeks and found out that the walkway around the resort is extremely slippery.
Now, I have a very excitable little 4-1/2 year old who bounces her way around just like Tigger in an episode of Super Sleuths. So, I went on a mission to find a pair of shoes that would help her stay on her feet but that were also “beach-worthy”.
Honestly, I didn’t have to look any further than Vincent Shoes because I know how comfortable and durable their shoes are. I looked at Tor, a style of sandal that is perfect for the beach and slippery surfaces. This is a lightweight sandal that offers my kid some protection from wiping out. I’m sold.
This sandal has a clear, rubber, slip-resistant sole with a padded heel strap and Velcro closure.

Tor is perfect for the beach/pool/lake-side with its “water-friendly” uppers/foot-beds and they’re easy enough for a four year old to put on and take off.

(We received a pair of Tor sandals to check out and talk about here.)
We can attest to their ability to grip surfaces. However, the true test will be on the walkway at the resort. I really don’t think we will be let down. Another noteworthy pair of beach-ready sandals are Moa.

Moa also has the clear, rubber, slip-resistant sole. However, I opted for Tor, as they provide a little more protection around my preschooler’s feet.
Since it is that time of year…egh-eghhhm…time to hit the beach…we’ve teamed up with Vincent to offer ParentSphere readers a nice giveaway. Leave your entry comment on this post for a chance to win a $50 gift certificate to Vincent’s online store.
