The Baby Booties are made by the Portuguese brand Zás Trás for Babies, designed to provide comfortable and respectful footwear for little ones. They are like non-slip socks and do not interfere with walking development. Made of cotton, they feature snap buttons for a better fit.
They can be worn from birth until sizes are no longer available. Up to six months, they come without non-slip soles. After six months, they include non-slip soles for added safety when little ones crawl, stand up, or take their first steps. They can be worn with or without socks, depending on the temperature.
The Mid Season version is ideal for autumn and winter. They are made of brushed cotton, similar to sweatshirt fabric, keeping feet warm and protected while remaining breathable.
First Steps
When babies start taking steps without support. They should spend most of the time barefoot or in non-slip socks. The first shoes are needed once they start walking outdoors, to provide protection. They should be barefoot and minimalist to recreate the feeling of “being barefoot,” with a wide toe box for free toes, flexibility for natural movement, and a thin sole for sensory feedback and adaptation.
Up & Go
The first year when the child learns to master walking and balance. It’s still important to prioritise barefoot time whenever possible, but barefoot shoes become more essential as children get more active. In the first six months, the ideal models are the most minimalist ones, almost like a “second skin,” so the child has maximum freedom of movement without restriction. They can be used as long as the size is available.
Vegan
Barefoot shoes free from animal products. Respecting your feet and our planet.
