Choosing Children’s Shoes - Hot Shoes for Toddlers

Toddlers are on their feet so much so it is well worth you regularly measuring your child’s feet to make sure that when you do buy shoes online they are perfect for little feet. The hottest shoes around include Crocs Kids Cayman found at Bumpto3, Shorefeet found at Bumpto3 and No Added Sugar nappa leather shoes.

Crocs Kids Cayman children’s shoes

Snap up the latest hot shoe product for toddlers - these shoes don't only look cool on your toddler’s feet they are also incredibly versatile and lightweight.

Your toddler can wear these shoes on the beach, on a boat or just messing about in the garden. The Kids Cayman design incorporates vents to let water, sand and air flow through meaning your toddler’s feet will remain aired and cool no matter what they’re up to.

Ergonomically designed with circulation nubs, heel and arch supports mean as well as looking great the footwear is actually quite good for your toddler’s feet.

Crocs Kids Cayman shoes for toddlers are made from a light-weight material which moulds to the foot and is also microbial and odour resistant with slip resistant soles.

Crocs should be worn very loosely on the foot with the sides of the shoe hardly touching the sides or toes of the feet too closely. Crocs agree that this advice does seem to go against normal advice for shoes but is how the Crocs are meant to be worn. The Crocs size available is Crocs 8/9 which is a UK child’s size 7/8. This equates to a three year old although some two year olds have feet this size too.

Crocs are available in many different colours and weigh only six ounces. They can also be sterilised in water and bleach. Just be aware that if you buy these for your toddler, you might not get them off again!

No Added Sugar shoes for toddlers

The range of gorgeously soft shoes from No Added Sugar is just brilliant for little feet. Generally the shoes are available up to a size of 12-18 months so little feet will be well looked after particularly when they’re on the move.

No Added Sugar shoes are hand made in Portugal from chrome-free nappa leathers. No Added Sugar shoes are free of heavy metals and chemical dyes. The shoes for toddlers and babies have elasticated cuffs on all shoes to make sure they stay on little feet.

It’s important for mummy and daddy to keep an eye on baby’s feet while they are wearing the elasticated shoes just to make sure the elastic is not causing any discomfort. The shoes are absolutely wonderful but if worn without socks you may see a line where the elastic has rested on baby’s ankle.

And make sure that your toddler’s feet do not get too hot in these shoes. At the end of the day, it’s good for babies to run around with no shoes on as well so do mix and match.

Acquashoes for water fun

Acquashoes from Floaties are brilliant for children wandering on the beach, paddling in park pools and in the sea. Children can wander about safe in the knowledge that their feet are protected from hot sand, slippery rocks and strange shoreline creatures that could cause pain. Acquashoes are the answer to toe and sole protection for little feet.

It is recommended that you choose a size bigger than normal from your child's normal shoe size. Acquashoes have mesh uppers and elasticated ankles with wet-grip non-marking soles. Perfect for fun in the water
