While your baby was not yet able to walk, you admired his heels - bare or shod in cute booties and socks. But here he stood on his feet and took the first timid steps. You understand that the time has come buy children's shoes in Kiev, and here many questions arise: where to buy, what exactly, what is better - wellies or boots? It's easy to lose your head, and the choice of children's shoes is simply enormous!
First and foremost: we don't skimp on the baby! After all, how the baby's legs are formed now will remain with him for life. And getting flat feet due to the wrong shoes is easier than easy, because babies' feet are so delicate and easily deformed.
Second: we put convenience and comfort above beauty, because no matter how beautiful pink shoes with bows are for your princess, if the baby is uncomfortable in them - refuse to buy them.
What we pay attention to
When choosing children's shoes, everything is important, there are no small things in this responsible matter. You will have to take the child with you to the fitting, even if you have measured the leg lengthwise and crosswise, the shoes must be measured "in person". The material from which the shoes are made must be natural, no synthetics! If these are shoes for the summer, they must have a small ring, a hard back and fasteners that tightly fix the leg, but are easy to fasten and unfasten, because sometimes the baby cannot be stopped! Summer shoes should breathe. Therefore, do not take very closed shoes.
If you need boots for the off-season - autumn or spring - the main thing is their waterproofness and non-slip sole. You should not buy rubber boots, because the baby will be uncomfortable in them, and the foot is not very useful. Also, sneakers are not suitable as a first shoe, they do not breathe, and the position of the leg is again incorrect.
If you are indecisive, what to take for the winter - boots or wellies, choose boots, just make sure that they are made of natural fur and leather, otherwise your feet will freeze. The feet of those who are insecure will feel uncomfortable in felt boots, the exception is the recently appeared felt boots with a sole, but make sure that it is not slippery. The same applies to winter boots - they should not slip. The same applies to winter boots, the sole must be stable and non-slip.
Regardless of what season the shoes are purchased for, the sole must be flexible and in no case should it crack due to temperature changes.
As for the size of the shoe, even if you know it, choose the shoe only after trying it on the child, since different manufacturing countries have different standards. Choose shoes so that there is a space of about 0,5 cm on each side between the foot and the shoe. To do this, slide your finger between the back of the shoe and the foot. Does it pass? Excellent! Even if you want to buy shoes "for growth", it is not necessary to do this, because too big shoes can rub, trample and spoil the foot. But also put aside the shoes in which the baby's foot barely fits.
When buying shoes, pay attention to the toe as well - it should be rounded, in no case narrowed, because children's chubby toes grow like a fan.
Try not to take worn shoes from relatives or friends, only if they are completely new and unworn. The fact is that every person's foot is individual, and everyone wears shoes in their own way.
