What: Vans for babies

Where: HITZ Boutique (316 West Cordova Street)

Price Tag: $35 to $40

Why: They may not make skateboards for babies, but at least your kid can learn to walk in style. Vans’ Crib series consists of miniature versions of the classic slip-on. Your offspring will look rad and be the hippest kid at daycare. Vans come in sizes ranging from newborn to adult, so you and your little one can match. If the traditional checkerboard motif isn’t your kid’s flavour, he might dig the whale or dinosaur pattern. Your bambino will be carving and grinding before you know it!
