I love so much about this shoe, including the look and the fit. My daughter (13 months) seemed to find them comfortable as well, and they are a flexible sole which allowed for more natural movement. She liked to play with the velcro and take them on/off, which is to be expected at her age. My only complaint, and it's the reason we had to stop using the shoe, is that the structure forced her to walk on the outside edge of her feet. Sadly, we had to find a shoe that would support and align her feet better.
