Healthy hints
Shoes without artificial arch support
At birth, the baby’s foot is flat. In fact, it owns a fat pad which disappears with the walk. An artificial arch inhibits the muscle development. That is why we offer you only healthy shoes - shoes without an artificial arch support.
Flexibility in the right places
Kid's shoes must be flexible at the front of the foot and not at the back. The back must be maintained by a reinforcement to avoid a twist of the ankle.
A slight heel is necessary
This is necessary for a correct walk posture and throughout the growth to avoid any inflammation of the tendon (Sever’s disease). Podiatrists therefore recommend a heel of about 5 mm.
Varied bare-foot experience
Let your kid to be bare-footed as much as possible (sand, grass, stones etc). This will allow him to feel the ground better, its asperities, to improve his balance and develop his proprioception.
What is the fitting?
The shoe is the set of characteristics that allow it to fit the foot correctly and comfortably.
The shoe size is of course one of the main thing to take into account when choosing the right pair of shoes, but it is not the only one.
The fitting is also defined by the width of the shoe, its volume - which is called shape - and its construction.
Every foot is different
For the same length, the foot can be different. Knowing the characteristics of the child's foot is essential to propose a suitable form.
Each model has a different shape to meet the needs of different foot. That's why we have customized pedimeters for each of submitted model.
A fundamental step for the child’s development
Before walking, the child learns how to step, that allows him to stimulate and develop the muscles, improve coordination and find the balance.
Sit, crawl, belly down, walk on all fours are all possible processes. Each child is different and set up his own way of moving.
Accompany the first steps of your child
●︎ Let him take his time to develop his walk. Each child learns to walk at his own pace. It is only when he will acquire enough confidence and trust that he will be able to begin to stand up and walk.
●︎ Let him bare-footed as much as possible inside the house. This will allow him to feel the ground better, its asperities, to improve his balance and develop his proprioception.
●︎ Choose good first-steps shoes. The first-steps shoes must be comfortable and sufficiently flexible so that your child is not bothered in the learning of his walk. Even a minimal discomfort can cause an imbalance, a malformation, problems for the walk or else cause a fall.
