How to choose the suitable kid shoes

Stage 1: Baby 15 months ago, crawling period to early toddler

At this stage, the baby starts to try to stand and walk. At this stage, the baby should be encouraged to barefoot indoors, let the foot directly touch the ground, increase the sense of grip on the sole, and cultivate balance. In order to keep warm and avoid foot injuries, indoor wearing of thin shoes with soft soles is also encouraged. Outdoors, the ground environment is complex, it is recommended to wear protective shoes.

Stage 2: 15 months later, the beginning of the toddler (gait is not stable)

Toddlers at this stage are in the toddler stage and begin to have more time to walk. However, due to the unstable gait, toddlers who are prone to tortuous shoes in the first half of the shoe are encouraged to wear. The body of the shoe is best designed with a mesh cloth. The sole should be thin and soft, making the shoe easy to twist, so that the child can easily start when walking.

Stage 3: 24 months to 48 months, steady period (steady gait)

Toddlers at this stage are at a steady stage. Both feet are under weight for a long time. The bottom of the foot has thick fat to cover the arch of the foot, which is easy to make the foot flat. At the same time, there are more obvious hind foot valgus and X-shaped legs. Toddlers at this stage should wear steadily harder shoes. This type of shoe requires a particularly hard heel cup to further control the valgus of the hind foot and gently support the arch of the foot. At the same time, the sole should also be easy to twist and easy to start.
