Everyone loves itty bitty baby shoes because anything that small is just so freaking cute, but did you know how important it is to put the right kind of first shoes on your little one? Their feet are growing and some shoes can actually harm development.
Pediped was created to be “the next best thing to bare feet.” I LOVE when companies take the time and put in the effort to do things the right way and truly care about their customers. They focus on comfort, quality, and style while promoting healthy foot development.
first shoes from pediped
They have a great selection of those “first shoes” with the soft leather bottoms, but whether your little one is crawling, walking, or running, pediped has the right shoe. They’re also super cute and high quality:
- premium grade, non-toxic leather
- foam ins0les and cushions
- padded heels to absorb shock
- awarded the American Podiatric Medical Association Seal of Acceptance for promoting healthy foot development
- over 120 fashionable styles
- Originals (0-24mo), Grip ‘n’ Go (9mo – 3yrs), and Flex (1-8yrs)
We received a pair of Originals for Rebecca–the best first shoes ever! The “Originals” line is made for infants and little ones just learning to walk. Rebecca is 13 months and not walking yet, but she stands all the time and has attempted a few steps without holding on. I picked out the classic Isabella shoe in chocolate brown.
The band across the foot opens and attaches with velcro, which is really helpful for a better fit. Rebecca tends to rip other shoes right off her feet, but she leaves these on. This girl has just tiny feet… she’s almost 14 months old and I got these in size 6-12 months and they’re a little bit big! I’m glad they’ll last her awhile; they’re perfect for this spring and summer! I want more in every color 🙂
The soles on these shoes (and all of them in the Originals collection) are soft leather. When children learn to walk, they usually shuffle their feet along the floor and the soft leather sole mimics bare feet so little ones can still feel the floor.
You can purchase wonderful first shoes like Rebecca’s (and more, up to age 8!) directly from www.pediped.com. Make sure you also find them on twitter, facebook, and pinterest!
