Last fall, Earnshaw’s posted it’s 2010 Spring Preview issue of Little Steps.   At the time, it seemed way too early to share some of what’s to come, but now that it’s starting to feel like spring where I live, I thought I’d pull the issue back out.

Little Steps is a trade publication that highlights children’s footwear and accessories for retailers interested in seeing new brands and products.  These retailers will soon be making the following little kid’s shoe styles and designs available to you, if they haven’t started already:

• Fish-patterned outsoles, butterfly motifs, seahorse appliques, chameleon tails, and even bats will make appearances on Merrell‘s wild, spring line-up.  Polliwalks, Weboo Kids, and others are just as eager to share their wild shoe lines.

• Keen will expand on their adjustable fit shoes for little feet.

• Stylish baby sneakers and Mary Janes are coming in fun colors and vintage looks from See Kai Run, Elk Kids, and IsaBooties.

• Look for Mickey, Minnie, and Pooh to show up on boys and girls clogs and sandals from Birki’s in the licensed character arena.  Batman, Hello Kitty, and Peanuts will also make appearances.

While there are many more children’s footwear styles and trends to look forward to, this is just a sampling to help get you ready for spring.
