Why kids need Barefoot Shoes?

It is estimated that 80% of foot problems are attributed to misshaped and inflexible shoes. Because of the high proportion of cartilage and other soft tissue, the developing foot can be deformed under the persistent pressure of wearing incorrectly shaped or rigid shoes. The child’s foot does not fully mature until age 18–19 for girls and 20–21 for boys and growing evidence supports that children’s shoes should be designed on the barefoot model.

Going Barefoot

Children should go barefoot in order to nourish, strengthen, and promote agility in children's growing feet, ankles, legs, knees, and even hips. By letting the children go barefoot, their toes will grow straight and have greater ability to spread and push off while walking, greater flexor strength and denser muscles on the bottom of the feet, a wider range of hip movement and more flexibility of hamstring and gluteal muscles. Going barefoot will also reduce the risk of getting flat feet and actually believed to promote better posture.
