Children don’t distinguish between play and ordinary activity. The way to nursery turns into a race, the shop is a maze and the living room a gym. Be Lenka kids’ casual barefoot shoes are built exactly for this mode, in which every day is played at full tilt. Comfortable from the morning, durable until the evening and roomy enough for little feet that are growing right now.
One pair for nursery, the playground and the Sunday trip
A child’s week is varied, but the footwear needn’t be complicated. The casual category includes models that handle the whole ordinary programme without changing shoes, from the cloakroom, through the climbing frames, to the family visit. You’ll find sneakers, slip-ons and low-cut shoes here. For little fashionistas there are also kids’ barefoot ballet flats, which handle an ordinary day just as well as a festive one. Choose according to the child, not the occasion.
Designed with parents
Nobody knows children’s footwear better than parents, who daily put it on their little ones, clean it and hunt for it around the flat. Be Lenka therefore projects parents’ feedback directly into the development of its children’s models, from the upper and simple putting-on to the durability of the sole, which must handle various surfaces while taking a beating when braking on the balance bike. We test the result over thousands of steps in the strictest conditions. Children’s shoes forgive nothing, after all, and that’s exactly how it should be.
From Monday to Sunday
Monday nursery, Wednesday the swimming pool, Friday grandma, Sunday a trip. Everyday footwear is often present at everything, so it must withstand many times more than any other pair of children’s shoes. Durable materials, precise stitching and soles from our own compounds see to it that the shoes last the whole merry-go-round. And when the little foot outgrows them, they’re usually still in shape. That’s the best calling card everyday footwear can offer.
How to motivate a child to wear new shoes?
+ -Involve them in the choice; if a child gets shoes they picked themselves, they’ll wear them with joy. Leave the new pair at home for a few days first for testing, so it becomes part of the child’s world before heading out. Don’t throw the old favourite shoes away in front of the child; little ones part with a beloved piece only with great difficulty.
What to do when a child completely refuses to wear shoes?
+ -Don’t fight it, use it. Bare feet are the best thing for a child’s development; at home and on safe surfaces around the house, happily let your little ones have them. Barefoot footwear is then the natural compromise for movement outside; the little foot feels the terrain in it almost as if barefoot, so the child resists less than with classic footwear. Most little fans of walking barefoot get used to a barefoot shoe quickly.
Which colours of children’s shoes last the most?
+ -Practically speaking, darker and earthy shades, which handle mud and grass alike. Bright colours, in turn, children love, and thanks to them they wear the shoes more gladly, which has its advantage too. A sensible compromise is a colourful model with a darker toe and sole, which have to withstand the most. On top of that, occasional waterproofing helps regardless of the shoe’s colour.
