Just ask the sister if it’s ok. That shows respect.

Give her the shoes. They were bought with love and good intent
You can always just ask her but I’d be happy someone got my child something I could get them myself 
Include a certificate for babysitting and a spa day for mom😉
Nice gesture…keep them…give them to the little boy
I say go for it… they are only little once, I think its super sweet of you!
It really depends on her.
She may be happy or insulted
Get a toy… this is ridiculous to even be a question… Rebecca Rodgers… I was thinking the same

That was a lovely gesture by you n yes you should if you have the money n want to then why not 
Nah. I love it when other people spoil my kids. Buy the shoes.
Give her the money instead…or something a little more practical
I would just ask the Mom!
Ask his sister if she would mind you getting them for him.
You’re the aunt. You’re supposed to spoil your nephew
Take her out for a shopping day and ask her then if you can
Definitely not appropriate
Put the money in a college fund for the child. Money well spent

If you want to give a gift then you should.
Gucci shoes for a 1 year old??? Why??? Crazy people!!
I’d be super excited! DO IT! 
Do what makes you happy!
Its a gift who cares what they cost omg. That’s ego talking
Eh I say give it to him. Before I had children I spoiled the crap out of my nephews.
Give it with a gift receipt.
Hell no give the gift id b happy to receive that for my children
They love chewing on Gucci shoes… A slobber shoe shine
Give her the shoes and tell her she can sell them (if she wants) after he outgrows them.
Give em the shoes they should be grateful
She probably would rather have the cash!
I would be ecstatic 🤷
Don’t give them. Focus on time together and offering support at this time.
I wouldn’t give him the Gucci shoes
Girl give him the shoes!!
Just contact your SIL and ask.
No. I bet she would be grateful
O would say ask the sister i don’t see a problem with it
I have to see these shoes! 
Just ask her if she’s ok with it. 🤷
Ask her. She is the mom
I’d give her the shoes…
Find something to worry over…
Give her cash instead
Don’t give a 1yr old Gucci
Don’t do it. Pretentious and insensitive.
Wrong, no. A silly waste, yes
And her some too shoot
If that’s what you want to do. Do it
No buy me Gucci shoes. I have none lol
Include your sister in the decision.
I I guess so since you can’t even call him your neohew!!!
next time do not tell anyone and send annon.
My sister in law buys my son jordan shoes and high end name clothing that I can’t afford and I don’t mind at all its clothes and shoes on his back at the end of the day

Gucci shoes for a 1-year old is an insane gift. No matter how cute they are they’ll
Grow out of them wicked fast.
Gucci shoes for a 1 year old that will outgrow them in months seems exorbitant to me. Gift her something that will help her with her 1 year old.
Girl if you wanna buy that baby shoes by all means buy him the shoes and since he said something go buy him a cute outfit to go with it and give them to her while he is standing right there. Ugh…men🙄 and if she gets offended or upset tell her you only got them cause you thought they were cute as heck and that you mean no offence by it just simply wanted to buy him something cute
Feel free to buy me Gucci shoes. My feet have stopped growing. And I will not be offended.
Just casually mention it to mom. Hey, I found the cutest Gucci shoes for him. I was thinking of buying them. What do you think?
A lot of Gucci merchandise has a Proposition 65 Warning, and this is enough to make me not buy anything from Gucci. I wouldn’t want to expose a child or anybody else, to something that can cause cancer.
What is a proposition 65 warning?
”Proposition 65 requires businesses to provide warnings to Californians about significant exposures to chemicals that cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. …
Shoot… you can buy my kids some Gucci shoes. A gift is a gift. I would think anything is appreciated

They are shoes… Hes 1. Hes not gonna know the difference. My family spends money on my kids all the time. And i on theirs. 🤷 never even thought about it. Shit my sister took my oldest to fl for her 16th birthday. Iv never even been. Didnt care tho, cuz it was something of course i wish i could have done, but also something i couldnt afford. And she loved it.
Maybe instead open up a college fund in his name. Or a bank account.Just saying
If it was me i wouldn’t care. I could barely afford food when I became a single mother. I appreciated everything we were given that was with good intentions. But check to see if he needs shoes. I would get irritated… one person would buy shit they already had plenty of or couldn’t use. (Like sandles for my special needs daughter who had ankle/ leg braces or hated my son had a “girl” coat we was given you couldn’t tell they made a big deal of his coat in front of him… so bought him a $200 coat he never wore 3 years ago…his choice not mine i said he needed pants no pants were given) Than throw it in my face they bought stuff. I would hope someone wouldn’t spend more than they can afford. Kids don’t care what is spent on an item… ask mom if he needs shoes and tell her you found a cute pair you wanted to give him. But if he needs other stuff I would buy that instead.
That’s a waste of money.
Get him a water table

Thats a waste of money…
That’s what Aunts and Uncles do!!! By the shit that parents never would. We spoil them.
Just ask the mother.
Why don’t you ask your husband’s sister?
Just ask her if he need anything that u can help out
Under the circumstances, I can see what your husband is saying.
Shes going through a expensive divorce and u think overpriced shoes that will be worn a few times are the answer? Take the money you spent on those and give things that will actually help them. I’d be 1000x more appreciated
I wouldn’t. Start a college fund for the baby
Nothing like rubbing somebody’s nose in it

I buy my nephew baby stuff everymonth and the parents are greatfully as it helps them as well I even buy the other kids now and them but I always buy for the baby whitch is 1 years old I spoil him so much just give the shoes to the mom and say I hope u don’t mind but I bought these for your child I’m sure she will be happy
Please let us know wat the outcome is
As a mom, it wouldn’t bother me. When I was pregnant, I don’t think I actually bought anything I needed for my son, it was all gave to me, & not because I asked & he got a lot of name brand. It still melts my heart when birthdays & Christmas come around on how much he is loved! As a mom I think it’s nice to know that other people think of your child in their day to day & want to spoil them like we do as parents
I would ask your husbands sister i personally have the opinion whats the point in spending lots of money of something that may only last a few weeks. But if i was gifted id still be grateful my mother often spends more then i can on my kids for birthdays abd Christmas im just glad they get to enjoy it
You gift him what you want. She may really appreciate the gesture.
You could just say ‘my nephew’

I’d ask her- send her a pic w/o the price and say you “found these super cute shoes, can I get them for him?!”

I think this is a little out of touch. First because a one year old has no business with super expensive shoes. He will outgrow so quickly. Second because it feels like your rubbing it in her face. While that is probably the furtherest thing from your intent, it isn’t a classy move. Gift your nephew, by all means, but give him something more appropriate for a one year old and a struggling mother.

I would talk to them and for a birthday or Christmas something so extravagant would be ok all 6 of the kids got iphones lol and jewelry. As a regular gift I would say hold off kids love anything new until they hit 10 they then love the one thing they didn’t get lol. It is very thoughtful of you and I wouldnt mind the jealousy from some of these people not everyone likes to see others do well.
I feel like I can relate to her side. I’m a single mom and had my son at 17 and I really couldn’t afford nice things for him. My family would always spoil him with name brands and nice things I would have never been able to give him. And yes it made me feel a little upset that I couldn’t provide for him in those ways, but I was so grateful. I love seeing my son in these cute over the top things, but frankly I dont think any parent wants to buy something like that for their own kid because what’s the point if they’ll just grow out if it so fast and they have to provide so much else.
I would give them the gift. I think it’s very thoughtful and super cute! Its nkt about “upshowing” them, it’s about giving something they wouldn’t have bought them self’s (which is the point of a gift right)
I think it’s awesome.Give them to her
U bought them not him
Sure, I’m sure she’ll appreciate it.
It wouldn’t make me feel bad? If someone wants to buy my kid something expensive go for it lol
One-year-old children do not need designer anything. What a frivolous waste of money and rude show of your own privilege. Buy the child a book.
I’d be happy for my kids if they got something I couldnt give them. However! Hes a baby, he wont care and maybe mom could benefit from spreading the cost of those shoes out a bit. Like a few outfits and shoes or diapers, etc. Things she might need.

Some people could get personally offended by that even though you are only doing it with best intentions. I did that for someone before. Bought this person a lot of things. The parents DID NOT appreciate it and took it as we must think that we are better than them. That was not at all what was in my mind when I did it. I was just trying to help and our family adored this person. So now I’m careful not to do that. If they can’t do it then they could possibly be insulted by it. Stupid but some people react that way.
Wow take the shoes back and put the money in a card saying ‘get what you need not what others want to force on you’
