Shoe Guide - Brown

Today's post is the first in a series dedicated to details about the many styles and colors of shoes in Strawberryland.  I thought that brown is a good place to start since that was the style and color that started it all back in 1979.

First off, here's some general information about the shoes as they have evolved over the years.  The Kenner shoes tend to be "squishy" as the plastic is more pliable.  The same goes with the THQ era shoes.  After the THQ era, the shoes are hard and do not bend.  They also have a strawberry insignia on the bottom of one shoe (one shoe has it, the other does not) to help distinguish them from the vintage shoes.


A) Strawberry Shortcake's shoes from the vintage era.  Note the band of hearts across the toe.

B) Huckleberry Pie's shoes from the vintage era.  It's hard to tell in the picture, but they have 3 lines (dashed, solid, dashed) that run from the laces, across the toe, to the bottom of the shoe.  They are slightly smaller than Strawberry's shoes.

C) Strawberry's shoes from the 2010 Anniversary 3-Pack.  They are a slightly off shade of brown compared to the others.

D) Strawberry's shoes from the 2009 Hasbro doll.

E) Strawberry's and Huckleberry's shoes from the Bridge Direct classic dolls.  These were included with the Strawberry doll from the standalone release, Toys R Us 3-pack, and Strawberry / Huckleberry 2-pack. Styles D and E are identical except E has the letters "TBD" on the inside sole.

F) Strawberry's alternate, vintage style shoes from the "Berry Best Party" THQ doll.

G) Strawberry's shoes from the "Berry Beauty Shop" THQ doll.

Shoe Guide - Pink

Pink is, by far, the most popular color for shoes in Strawberryland!  To make it more challenging, there are several shades of pink for the same style shoe in both the vintage and modern eras. There are so many pink colored shoes that I've split them into vintage and modern photos. A) Raspberry Tart's shoes from the vintage era.  Their original color is a pale pink, but they often fade to a really pale, almost white, color. B) Lime Chiffon's shoes from the vintage era. C) Cafe Ole's shoes from the vintage era. D) Dancin' Strawberry Shortcake's shoes from the vintage era. E) Strawberry's Party Pleaser and Berrykin shoes.  This shoe is one of the very few, if not the only, that was used for more than one doll in the same style / color combination. F) From the Berry Pretty Berry Wear set from the vintage era.  This shoe originally came with the set and was replaced by style G. G) From the Berry Pretty Berry Wear set from the vintage era. ...
