Winter shoes with profile
The “Liam” model is ideal for the cool season. The two Velcro fasteners make it easy to put on and take off. The shoe is light, the material is very soft and breathable, making it ideal for healthy foot development.The sole
In our latitudes, most of the cold often comes from the ground/asphalt. Our super flexible POLOLO TPR profile sole made of thermoplastic rubber has excellent slip resistance and thermal insulation. It is specially tailored to the needs of children. The wool insole can be removed. This is the best way to check whether the shoes fit well.Fitting
The model can be opened wide and can be adjusted very easily with the two double clamps on the foot. The shoes are suitable for medium and wide feet. Please keep in mind that the wool as an inner lining reduces the interior space of the shoes. Therefore, allow for a little more leeway.The material
The inner lining: We only use real, 100% certified, cuddly-soft organic wool (organic quality / controlled organic animal husbandry). Your feet stay wonderfully warm without sweating. The outer material is IVN-certified, vegetable-tanned, chrome-free leather, without coatings. It has a unique grip, is robust and supple and is ideal for children's feet and healthier foot development.Care, is the shoe waterproof?
Water repellent: Leather is a supple and durable material. The advantage of leather (especially uncoated leather) is that it is naturally breathable and adapts optimally to the foot - and real natural leather is degradable. Leather is relatively impermeable to water. Leather shoes can be sealed even better with waterproofing spray or wax. We recommend, for example, ecological manufacturers such as Tapir. Because in the interests of children and the environment, we recommend ecological variants that are environmentally and health-friendly. Water resistance also depends on timing. The shoes are already pre-treated and lightly waterproofed, but should be re-impregnated regularly - we would say monthly - so that they remain water-repellent. Clean the shoes well before waterproofing. Tapir does not use spray bottles but pump sprays, so the spray pattern is not always even and forms droplets. Please immediately distribute these droplets evenly over the leather with a small brush or cloth and allow them to dry for a short time. Waterproof In this sense, only rubber boots or synthetic boots with a membrane are included. These are wonderful when it is raining heavily and your child wants to run around in the rain and puddles or when the temperatures are well below freezing. But otherwise they are not breathable and should therefore not be worn for continuous use.

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.
