As a parent, I know just how hard it is to find clothes and shoes for kids that aren't either covered with animated characters or blandly cutesy (floral patterns! Bows and hearts!), so I'm always excited when I find children's apparel with real, honest-to-goodness style, like this footwear collection designed by Vincent Shoes. From the leather-and-suede William to the thick-soled Linus, these shoes are both modern-looking and practical. In fact, I'm so taken with these Smith sneakers, I almost wish they make them for adults!

All available at the Vincent Shoe Store from $49 to $54.
