The original term is "barefoot" footwear, which means "bare feet". This is exactly what this type of shoe aims to provide. Its shape and construction simulates being barefoot, without any type of restriction or conditioning on the little feet. In Portugal and Spain, it is known as "respectful", because these models respect and take into account the physiognomy of our little feet, allowing the toes to be free and grow healthily, without being compressed. There are also those who prefer the term "minimalist", because they are simple shoes that adapt to the foot, without any type of elevation and because they are flexible, allowing all possible mobility, exactly as when barefoot. |

![]() How to choose the right size?Shoes are only suitable if they're worn in the correct size, neither too small nor too big. But how do you know the right size? By measuring your feet and comparing them to the brand's guide. |

![]() How to measure?Trace both feet on a piece of paper. The child should be standing so they can expand fully, as they do when walking. When sitting, the foot shrinks and becomes shorter. Measure the length from the center of the heel to the big toe. Measure the width. Consult the size guide for the brand you're looking for. |

What is the ideal clearance?A shoe is only respectful if it has the ideal amount of space at the toe, with room for the toes to move and grow healthily. This space should be between 0.8 and 1.2 cm. How can I confirm that the size is ideal? By testing the insole, if it is removable: - Between 0.8 and 1.2 cm: ideal for the child to be comfortable, with room to grow and make the most of the shoe; - More than 1.2cm: large; - Less than 0.5mm: it's time to change the size, because it's too small. Most barefoot brands already take care to include this allowance in the size guide and it is not necessary to add it, however, it is an aspect that should always be confirmed depending on the chosen brand. When the brand indicates a range of values, it usually includes the clearance. When it indicates the length of the insole, it is necessary to add between 0.8 and 1.2 cm. |
