Pony Bosi

Velcro doesn't get the credit it deserves. It can be found on almost anything, but our favorite applications are always on shoes. The Pony Bosi ($70) features great modern styling, with criss-crossing Velcro straps that take you back to the days before putting on your shoes had gotten so complicated it required these dumb things called "laces." A solid rubber sole and EVA midsole keep your foot comfortable and will hold the shoes together through plenty of
playground-esque antics. [Thanks, Ash!]
