Criss Cross Sandals

Barefoot Sandals from Tip Toey Joey, designed for gait acquisition, keeping feet super fresh and comfortable. They have a minimalist structure that allows greater freedom of movement and sensation. Their shape is wide, leaving little toes free. The sole is thin, flat and very flexible. They are made from very soft leather, which adapts to the feet and keeps them at the ideal temperature.

Gait stage: Open Sandals work best for children who have already been walking for more than six months. They can be used earlier, but for daily use, especially at nursery, closed models may be more convenient due to the greater protection. In terms of comfort, there is no problem with them being open and they even provide extra freshness. They are great for holidays and days out. It is a matter of adapting them to the context in which they are needed. They can be used as long as there is a suitable size. As a reference, they can cover ages between 1 and 3 years, on average.

Foot type: The Criss Cross works best for medium, wide feet and medium/high insteps. The straps over the instep are quite wide and this type of velcro works best for more medium or wide ankles.

Important: Use the Sandals with socks during the first uses, to ensure the material softens and adapts to the feet without causing any wounds. Children's skin is sensitive and this care helps with a more comfortable transition. In Sandals, it is still important to have extra room, so don't forget to measure little feet.

Composition: They are made from extra-soft REACH leather, free from toxic substances and safe for babies. They have a natural leather lining, which allows the feet to breathe, and an antibacterial insole, lined with leather, to absorb perspiration and carry it out of the shoe. The sole is made from super flexible, resistant and non-slip natural rubber.

The brand: Tip Toey Joey is a Brazilian barefoot footwear brand, founded in 2004, inspired by Sofia, the daughter of Anna and Scott McInerney. Her father is a designer and studied her little foot to create shoes that took her natural development into account. It all started with the drawing of her foot. Today, with more than 20 years of experience, it is one of the main references in children's barefoot footwear.
