Barefoot Shoes by the Brazilian brand Tip Toey Joey perfect for the babies' feet when they are taking their first steps. The thin sole promotes sensory stimuli, fundamental to its healthy development, along with the wide toe box designed to be aligned with the feet's anatomy, allowing for toe freedom, keeping them straight, activated and free to grow healthily.
If the baby is not autonomously taking its first steps, it is more beneficial to allow walking barefoot or with non-slip socks. Wear shoes outside only if extra protection is necessary.
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.
