First Shoes... A
baby’s foot contains no
fully formed bones at all - the shape of the foot is mapped out in soft and
pliable bones similar to cartilage, surrounded by a layer of subcutaneous tissue or ‘puppy fat’. This makes the foot feel soft, but also makes it prone to being bent out of shape without noticing and without your child feeling any pain.
Shoes act as protection for the feet, cruisers are available for the first tottering steps and then more structured first walking shoes. Both being available in full and 1/2 sizes and a range of width fittings, these
shoes should have a fastening to hold the foot in place, then the shoe fitter can give ‘growing room’ and it stops the foot from slipping forward and damaging the toes. A guideline for the first pair of walking shoes is approx 12 steps unaided and the child has their balance, after this there will be no stopping them, they will run you off your feet!
Trained
shoe fitters... can help you ensure your child develops
‘HAPPY FEET’ by advising with styles and sizes.
