🌵 **Vegan leather alternative made from cactus:**
A new chapter of sustainability! Our barefoot shoes are made from a cactus-based vegan leather alternative. This innovative choice not only protects animals, but also our planet.- The raw material for these children's shoes is a so-called “cactus leather”.
- It is made, among other things, from the leaves of the prickly pear cactus. The plant is not cleared, but the regrowing leaves are used for production.
- The cultivation is controlled organic
- There is no extra irrigation and no use of pesticides.
- It contains no animal ingredients - therefore the model is vegan
- No energy is used to dry the leaves. The leaves dry in the sun.
- Cactus leather is PU coated and therefore water-repellent
👣 **Barefoot shoes for medium to wide children's feet:**
Wearing barefoot shoes can help prevent certain foot problems such as flat feet or toe deformities by supporting the feet's natural development. Increase foot flexibility: The flexible sole of barefoot shoes allows natural movement and flexibility of the feet, which is important for promoting healthy development. Stylish and practical at the same time! The Chelsea style with side zip makes it easy to put on and take off. The little feet are ready for any adventure. Wide entry: The entry on this model is large and is very easy to put on, but please help your children with the zipper. Smaller children can't do this so well. The shoes are well suited for medium and wide feet. The flexible POLOLO TPR barefoot sole made of thermoplastic rubber has good slip resistance and is specially designed for the needs of children. The insole can be removed. This is the best way to check whether the shoes fit well.🌈 **Color matching woven ribbon:**
A touch of sophistication! The integrated color-matching web band on the side gives the shoes a special touch. A beautiful accent that completes the design.🌊 **Sustainable production:**
Our shoes are made with sustainable production practices in mind. Every step is a contribution to a greener and more ethical future. With our vegan barefoot children's shoes in Chelsea style made from alternative cactus leather, you are not only relying on style, but also on making a conscious choice for the environment and our animal friends. Let your little feet dance through life freely and in style!Additional information
Fit of children's shoes
The human foot takes approximately 18 years to fully develop. Of course, it grows fastest in the beginning. Therefore, you parents should check the fit of your children's shoes every 3-4 months. For POLOLO street shoes, we have always developed removable soles - as far as this was possible for the respective style. On the one hand, you can easily replace a sole (e.g. add a wool sole for the winter) and you can use it to measure the foot length and fit very well. If the imprint of the big toe is already dangerously far forward, then your child has already grown again and is due for the next shoe size. Our soles are all very flexible, especially our Barefoot collection.
POLOLO pursues the highest ecological standards
When producing our POLOLOs in Spain, we pay great attention to ecological, pollutant-free materials and workmanship throughout the entire production chain. We only use German natural leather that is vegetable tanned and certified, organic quality cotton (organic / kbA) and wool from controlled organic animal husbandry (organic / kbT). POLOLOs are allergy-friendly and therefore our leathers are naturally chrome-free.
