Little fashionistas know what they want. A skirt that twirls and shoes that belong with it. Be Lenka kids’ barefoot ballet flats fulfil the wishes of the smallest young ladies to the letter: a delicate girlish look on the outside and, inside, everything a growing little foot needs. Space, natural movement and lightness with every step and pirouette.
Why do classic kids’ ballet flats do harm and barefoot ones don’t?
Girls’ dress-up footwear tends to be the first to shape children’s feet by force. A narrow toe presses the toes together exactly at the age when the foot is forming the most, and a stiff sole takes away its freedom of movement. Barefoot ballet flats keep the delicate look but are made on an anatomical last. The toes have room to spread out in width, the sole bends with every step and the little foot develops the way it should. Prettiness without a tax the feet would pay.
From nursery to a family celebration
Ballet flats are footwear of two worlds. On ordinary days they serve with leggings and little dresses alike, and thanks to easy slipping on they also work brilliantly as indoor shoes a little lady slips into by herself. You’ll find more footwear for the littlest ones among barefoot shoes for nursery. And when a christening, a family wedding or a birthday party comes, the gentle colours and clean design of the ballet flats handle a festive outfit too. One pair, two services.
A delicate design, high durability
However fragile they may look, our ballet flats go through the same school as the whole children’s collection. Soft materials gentle on children’s skin, precise stitching and soles from Be Lenka’s own compounds, tested over thousands of steps. Because even a young lady in ballet flats runs after a ball, skips rope and won’t pass by the climbing frame. Prettiness that survives play is the only prettiness that makes sense with children.
Won’t the ballet flats slip off when running and jumping?
+ -Children’s models reckon with that. An elastic rim and a shaped heel hold the flat on the little foot even during a chase, and some models add a delicate strap for extra certainty. The right size decides; a flat that’s too long comes off with every step. If you have a little rascal at home who never stops, reach for the variant with a strap.
From what age are ballet flats suitable?
+ -From when the child already walks confidently and runs. For the very first steps we recommend footwear with a firmer hold of the instep; ballet flats come into play once walking is stable. Thanks to the anatomical toe box and flexible sole, they then accompany the growing foot through all the nursery and school years.
Can ballet flats be worn with socks and tights?
+ -Yes, both work. For everyday wear, thin ankle socks or invisible footies fit well, protecting the inside of the shoes. With a festive outfit, delicate tights are the classic. On hot days, little feet handle wearing them barefoot too; in the evening, then, let the flats air out.
