The children's shoes for girls and boys include ankle boots, boots, slippers, house shoes, mules, flip-flops, espadrilles, and water shoes, from babies to juniors.
For first steps, a soft sole, like that of Les Pas Petits slippers, allows the foot to move freely; later, a non-slip sole is more important than style, whether on an ankle boot Blundstone or on rain boots.
The kids' ankle boots are led by the Blundstone Chelsea ankle boots, with side elastics, from the Tasmanian brand: they slip on easily, with no laces to tie. The kids' Palladium Pampa boots, Geox boots, and Kickers Kick Col boots from the French brand complete the boys' and girls' ankle boots.
The kids' boots protect from snow and rain: winter boots for kids Reima Nefar, from the Finnish children's clothing brand, in baby and kids' sizes, Crocs Classic Neo Puff boots and girls' Geox Eclair boots. For puddles, the rain boots Mikk-Line Wellies can be rinsed off with a splash of water after the outing.
At home, the kids' slippers focus on Les Pas Petits, the French brand of soft baby slippers, and the kids' Birkenstock Zermatt slippers. The kids' slippers also add the Crocs Classic Cozzzy slippers.
In fine weather, the kids' mules and flip-flops include the Les Tropéziennes par M. Belarbi Bali mules and the Steve Madden Missilee mules. The kids' flip-flops feature the Cacatoès Rio De Janeiro flip-flops from the brand born in Marseille, and the Crocs Echo flip-flops, while the kids' espadrilles showcase the Toms Alpargata espadrilles. For the beach, the water shoes protect feet from pebbles: these are the kids' summer shoes from the selection.
The kids' trainers have their own selection, featuring Asics GEL-1130 in GS version, Victoria Tribu trainers, and Gola trainers. The Crocs Classic clogs are also available in kids' sizes in the clogs selection.
The kids' Velcro shoes can be put on independently from preschool; laces come later. For both girls and boys, a waterproof ankle boot and a pair of trainers cover the essentials for the year, complemented by sandals in summer. Kids' winter shoes, lined and with a gripping sole, hold up on wet pavements.
Cheap kids' shoes can be found in the kids' special offers, and the new kids' arrivals showcase the pairs for the upcoming season. The kids' shoes dispatched in 24h are great for last-minute needs before school starts, and late November sees the Black Friday for kids bring together discounts, just before Christmas. Quick delivery and best price guaranteed.
Press your thumb at the end of the shoe while the child is standing: there should be a little space in front of the toes. Red marks on the foot after the day, or a child complaining while walking, indicate a shoe that is too small.
A low and light shoe, with a thin and flexible sole that bends easily at the front, allows the foot to move. Inside, soft slippers like those from Les Pas Petits are sufficient; outside, a well-fitted first steps shoe at the heel holds better.
Remove the insole, stuff the shoe with newspaper, and let it dry at room temperature, away from a radiator that hardens the leather. A spare pair prevents putting on damp shoes the next day.
Boots with side elastics, like the kids' Blundstone Chelsea boots, mules, and flip-flops can be put on independently. Velcro comes next, and laces wait until the child knows how to tie them.
Canvas models often withstand a cold wash, in a mesh bag, if the label allows; leather, suede, and boots should never go in the washing machine. Always check the care label first.
