the amazing and flexible and lightweight world of foot-friendly footwear, a.k.a. barefoot

my shoes, my lasts!!!

In barefoot footwear, there's loads of room at the front so the toes can spread, move and not be squeezed.

In other words, like being barefoot.

a sole for feeling... the ground

The sole is made with lightweight, hard-wearing materials that let the foot bend and move, so it can feel the ground.

In other words, like being barefoot.

three solid reasons

one

Being a kid means: never-ever-stopping. Their feet don't either. They grow, change and learn to move every day. Barefoot goes along with their development and respects it.

two

Children's feet are ¡¡¡not!!! small adult feet. They're feet under construction. And anything that puts up barriers now will show later on.

three

If the shoe does everything, the foot does less. Barefoot lets the muscles of the foot take part in every step taken and every tree climbed.

quick answers for mums and dads in a hurry

What is barefoot?

Barefoot aims for the feeling of being barefoot. Three key features: (1) thinner, more flexible soles (2) a wider toe box (3) heel and toe at the same height.

And how is it different from a normal shoe?

The difference is that it respects the natural shape of the foot, doesn't limit movement and allows a freer step.

Does it correct the step?

No. It goes along with the foot's natural movement.

Is it for everyone?

It's one more option. Every little one is different and so is every foot. It depends on the terrain, the activity or the child's age.

From what age can it be used?

From a young age, always respecting their pace and a gradual transition.

How do you introduce barefoot?

Little by little. Starting with short spells, watching how the child walks and letting them get used to the feeling. Alternating it with other shoes is fine too: it's not about imposing, but about going along with their pace
