As your little one learns to walk, it's an exhilarating and slightly nerve-wracking experience! You're bursting with pride for your child, but then you realize that anything below knee level is fair game. On top of that, a toddler on the move needs proper foot protection when out and about.

While many professionals recommend going barefoot, there are times when protection is necessary. Sharp objects and grumpy ants won't move out of the way, and before you know it, your little one is in pain.

That's where the Traditional BigToes shoe comes in - it's not just a cute and easy choice, but it's also scientifically designed to mimic barefoot walking for babies and toddlers as closely as possible. It provides full foot support without sacrificing the essential "barefoot feeling" crucial for growth and cognitive development.

Each shoe:

• Has a ‘big toe box’ to allow toes to freely move around inside the shoe. This is necessary to gain balance and stability.
• Has a softness that sits BELOW the ankle, providing the right amount of support without over-stabilising. Too much rigidity around the ankle leads to weakness and a foot that relies solely on a shoe for stability. This can affect the development of feet, ankles, knees and hips. 
• Is glue free, breathable and totally non-toxic. This eliminates foot odour (kids feet get SWEATY!) and is suitable for sensitive skin.
• Has a non-slip out-sole. Learning to walk is hard enough without a slippery sole!
• Is lightweight and easy to slip on and off. Little ones don’t tend to keep their feet still for very long!
• Comes in a range of fun, happy designs.
