You've heard of "dad shoes," but what about mom shoes? In celebration of Mother's Day, we asked a few of the moms on the Stadium Goods staff what their go-to shoe is for simply "being a mom." As in, their favorite pair to thrown on to drop the kids off at school, get the groceries, hit the park on the weekend, and everything else a mom does with their kids. Things are obviously a little different right now with the quarantine situation, but that doesn't change the fact that our SG moms know how to get the job done and look good while doing it. Find six of the best mom shoes, as recommended by the experts, below.
Air Jordan 3 "Black/Cement"
My tried and true go-to since before mom days, it is undoubtedly my number one pick when I'm running out the door to get the kids to school, the playground, or just anywhere that requires something on my feet. These 3s made the silhouette my favorite and I can't imagine another shoe ever taking its place in my rotation!

Sean Wotherspoon x Nike Air Max 1/97
My current go-to mom shoe has to be the Sean Wotherspoon x Nike Air Max 1. Why? They’re out the box already.
Angeli Aquino - Inventory Ops
Nike React Element 55
My best-looking, most comfortable sneakers that are also very versatile. They’re good for my in-home workout or walk around the block. I'm currently wearing the "Wolf Grey" colorway and the "Washed Coral" colorway is what I'm looking forward to wearing most when this quarantine is over.

Off White x Nike Air Vapormax "The 10"
My favorite shoe to be a mom in is my Off White x Nike Vapormax. This shoe is so comfortable and easy to put on, perfect for a mom who is always on the go. Its black and white silhouette is easy to pair with anything and is so stylish you can dress them up or down.

Air Jordan 4 "Bred"
I probably have too many Jordan 4s at this point since they’re super comfy and are most similar to a puffy '90s skate shoe, but my go-to are my Breds. Easy to slip in and out of, compliment every outfit, and I can still run after my 2-year old in them. Mom bonus: The suede is super easy to clean those tiny footprints off after your kids have climbed all over you. Thank me later ;)

Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance Collaborations
It’s about both ease and style when I’m with my boys, and all of the Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance collaborations give that to me. The silhouettes have a nostalgic feel but the color combinations are clean and fresh, and the attention to detail is always impeccable. There’s an understated, effortless cool about these shoes.
