Wanna talk shoes? {is t.bird around?}

So, Spencer needs shoes. I love the See Kai Run shoes, but before I spend $40 on one pair of shoes for a kid who can't even walk, I need to know some things.

1) will these shoes magically teach my child to walk?
2) is there a cuter and cheaper brand I should know about?
3) where can I find the best deals on them?
4) anyone wanna sell their size 4 boy's SKR's in EUC or GUC to me?
