Parents are often faced with the challenge of buying good shoes for their babies and kids. As a shoe specialist we decided to come up with a buying guide for parents looking for shoes that promote healthy foot development for kids.

Before you buy any shoes for babies and kids, you should take into consideration the following 10 factors:

1. Stretch and recovery (durable)

2. Breathable lining (allows air in; no smells)

3. Velcro closure (easy to wear; quick to wear)

4. Lightweight (easy movement)

5. Machine-washable (keeps shoes fresh and clean)

6. Eco-friendly (reduced carbon dioxide emission and less use of water and energy)

7. Extra insoles (extends the life of a shoe)

8. Adapted (mimics bear foot movement)

9. Soft footbed (provides comfort and avoids pain)

10. Recommendation by podiatrists and paediatricians
