WE have three kids and usually buy their shoes from Vans. They have a good enought selection for the kids, but the best part is the durability. If the kids don't outgrow them they will last almost a year, and the non-leather kind wash up great. The downside is the price (sometimes $50) but they do have sales and if you check regularly you can hit a sale.
PROS: durability
CONS: price
