Miniature-sized runners have a strange effect on us.
There's something about a child's first pair of Converse that makes us go all gooey inside, high-pitched squealing and all.
This gives us the perfect excuse to go and pick a selection of the cutest children's sneakers available right now.
Puma are winning hands down - the red are so cool we want them for ourselves and as for the pink, little girls will love the ribbon detail ( we're really hoping both comes in adult sizes too).
Check them out below...
