Sneakers Paterna Feroz

Zapato Feroz barefoot Sneakers. They are among the best Sneakers for first steps and the early walking stage. While remaining minimalist, lightweight and highly flexible, they feature a light yet durable toe protection that ensures good resistance. They work very well for daily wear, including nursery. Zapato Feroz is one of the leading Spanish barefoot brands, known for its high quality and for developing its models based on podiatric recommendations. They feature a wide toe box that keeps toes free. The sole is thin, flat and flexible.

Walking stage: The Feroz version is ideal from the moment children take their first steps until the largest size is reached. These models have a thin and extra flexible sole that closely simulates being barefoot, making them perfect for the stage when children are learning to master walking and balance (the first year after they start walking independently). As a reference, they are usually worn by children between 1 and 3 years old. There is only a need to switch to the next stage models (consolidated walking) when no size remains available in this stage.

Foot type: The Paterna model combines elastic laces with velcro, resulting in a more secure and snug fit with less instep height. It is ideal for medium to lower insteps. In terms of width, it is versatile, so measuring and comparing with the size guide is recommended (the ideal side allowance should be between 0.3 and 0.7 cm combined on both sides of the foot).

Composition: The upper is made of nobuck-style microfibre that replicates the characteristics of natural leather in an ecological way and without harmful agents. The lining features technical Coolmax fabric, designed to wick moisture away and keep the foot dry for longer. The insoles are removable and also made with Coolmax, combined with activated charcoal foam. The sole is made of natural rubber and is 2.5 mm thick. Vegan.

The brand: Zapato Feroz is one of the main references in barefoot footwear in Spain and was one of the first respectful children's footwear brands. It stands out for designing each model in detail to support healthy foot development, freedom of movement and comfort. The brand is also environmentally conscious, developing its footwear sustainably and mostly with vegan materials. Although it is a Spanish brand, it is manufactured in a factory in Portugal dedicated exclusively to its production, contributing to local employment and the national economy.
