“Summer” barefoot shoe with integrated elastic band

Healthy children are constantly in "action" - their entire muscles are always in motion, and that's how it should be, because that's how they train their body awareness. Children's feet are not just small adult feet: they are wonderfully soft and flexible because their foot bones are still slowly developing. Only at the age of 18 do the foot bones finally harden. The slightest pressure – caused by, for example, unsuitable shoes that are too hard or too little room for movement – ​​could possibly cause damage. This should also be taken into account when wearing barefoot shoes.

Characteristics:

  • Practical and convenient: The shoe is easy to put on and take off, ideal for quick changes in everyday kindergarten life.
  • Flexible barefoot sole: The thin, non-slip sole provides a natural walking feel while protecting the feet from uneven surfaces.
  • Breathable material: Made from soft, chrome-free tanned leather that fits perfectly to the foot and ensures optimal ventilation.
  • Healthy foot development: The natural movement of the foot is supported without constriction – ideal for growing children’s feet.
  • Range: Ideal for everyday life, play and leisure in dry weather.

Sole

The more flexible the sole, the better the foot is trained when walking, the sense of balance and foot muscles are strengthened and healthier body and foot development is promoted. Our barefoot soles are particularly elastic and thin.

Range:

Whether playing in the garden, on the playground or in kindergarten - this barefoot shoe is a loyal companion for indoors and outdoors. In warm, dry weather, it offers maximum comfort while protecting sensitive children's feet.

development with children's foot experts for barefoot shoes

The toe area is cut straight at the big toe and thus offers plenty of space for the toes. Made with love for craftsmanship from IVN-certified, vegetable-tanned natural leather. Tested for harmful substances and allergy tested. Walking barefoot has many advantages - it is especially great fun in summer. Sometimes the surfaces are just too rough, hard and uncomfortable. Then these barefoot shoes are exactly the right choice! "Summer" has an integrated elastic band so that the shoe fits perfectly. The material is also very skin-friendly, free of heavy metals and tested. You can therefore also wear these POLOLOs barefoot. But please remember: dyed, uncoated and chemically untreated leather can sometimes also rub off when wet.

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.
