It’s officially back-to-school season, and while you might already be set on supplies, clothes and even glasses, there’s one item you probably have to replace almost every year: shoes.

Whether we like it or not, kids are constantly growing out of their shoes. You might be hesitant to replace too many of them at a time, so we narrowed it down to the essentials: sneakers, boots, flats and sandals.

Zappos has an entire section dedicated to back-to-school clothes, shoes and accessories filled with fun color, prints and patterns in the latest styles and trends. We did the hard work for you and searched Zappos for its best-selling kids shoes, so you can spend less time shopping.
