SKEANIE Shoes for Kids are not just stylish; they are also podiatry-designed and approved in Australia. Our Toddler and Pre-walker leather baby shoes have received the prestigious Seal of Acceptance from the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA). This endorsement signifies that our shoes are recommended by podiatrists and pediatricians, ensuring that your child receives the best support for their developing feet. Lightweight and flexible-soled shoes are essential for babies and toddlers, promoting healthy foot development as they take their first steps.
The story of SKEANIE began in 2005 when Natasha Barber, a new mother, struggled to find quality soft shoes for her baby. This challenge ignited her passion for foot health and development, leading her to create her own line of shoes. Through extensive research and dedication, Natasha launched SKEANIE Shoes for Kids, focusing on providing high-quality footwear that supports healthy foot growth.
Children's feet are fascinating! A baby's foot contains more cartilage than bone, and while the structure develops fully by the age of two, the bones themselves do not harden until around age 13. The first three years are crucial for foot development, as children's feet endure three times more stress than an adult's. Additionally, a child's foot sweats twice as much as an adult's foot, making proper footwear essential for comfort and health.
To maintain the quality of your SKEANIE footwear, we recommend spraying them with a Shucare Water and Stain Repellent before wear. For everyday cleaning, simply wipe the boots with a clean damp cloth or leather wipe. To keep the leather soft and vibrant, applying Shucare Leather Conditioner and Renovating Polish is advisable. Please note that SKEANIE footwear should never be placed in the washing machine or dryer, as this can damage the materials.
All SKEANIE Shoes are designed in Australia and are Fair Trade Made, ensuring ethical production practices. Our commitment to quality and foot health is reflected in every pair of shoes we create. Please be aware that colors may vary slightly due to the natural materials used in production.
