The Baby Booties are made by the Portuguese brand Zás Trás for Babies, designed to provide comfortable and respectful footwear. The Winter version is created for the cold season, allowing little ones in their first steps to explore the outdoors, play, and enjoy nature, even on chilly days. They protect and warm little feet without compromising mobility or walking development.
They stand out for their extra-thin rubber sole, only 1.5mm thick. The exterior is made of polyester and the interior has a breathable fleece lining. This model is designed to provide extra warmth and protection for little ones taking their first steps. They also offer good water resistance thanks to the waterproof fabric, making them suitable for daily use, wet surfaces, and light rain.
However, since this model has seams, it cannot be guaranteed to be 100% waterproof. For this reason, we do not recommend them for puddle jumping, as large amounts of water may seep through.
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
