Lilac Essential Shoes

After speaking with numerous podiatrist’s across Australia regarding this shoe style, we can confirm it’s because these shoes unlike others are thin, flat, flexible & do not restrict any growth or movement making it ideal for growing feet! Unlike other thick hard sole shoes that are more narrow, these sock shoes are wider, meaning your little ones feet won’t be squished in any way — this is why we say it provides all day comfort! When you take a step, your toes flex out, they aren’t meant to stay narrow the whole way, this is why towards the top of the shoe is a lot wider so their toes can flex freely.

After endless studies, flat shoes are known to give the most beneficial start to your babies walking journey.

Sock shoes are designed to mimic barefoot walking, meaning there is no added restrictions in growth like other shoes especially typical hard soled shoes.

Sock shoes are the most beneficial style of shoes for babies and toddlers as they are thin and flat, the rubber soles are durable enough to protect your child's foot.

The durable rubber soles are there to protect their feet from the outside world while still maintaining that barefoot walking feeling.

Studies have shown that leaving your child without shoes provides them with better foot health in the long run than other style of shoes.

your little one should still get an extra few months use in between sizes.
