Toddler barefoot/flexible/wide toe box slipper/pull on type shoes?

[OrangeITellYou]

Have a just walking toddler and want them to have some kind of very flexible and barefoot type shoes, the ones that look maybe like socks on the top. For mainly indoor until they’re outside walking, a lot of the Clark’s type ones look narrow and rigid and want to buy form a genuine company.

Why not just stick with socks with our without grip or bare feet indoors. Wide shoes will increase tripping and stop her balancing

Have a look at Bobux. Their Xplorer range are perfect for this stage. We used these for 6-8 weeks before our little one moved on to their Step Up range.

Keep them barefoot indoors as much as you can, but the shoes above are fine for outdoors/indoors if necessary. I’d avoid just grippy socks, they’re better barefoot.

Have a look at Happy Little Soles.

For indoors at home we did barefoot if warm enough, grippy socks if not. For indoors out and about we had the dotty fish/inch blue type leather slip-ons (and for outdoors in summer, but that's not so relevant now!).

Happy Little Soles and Bobux are both good once you get to the outdoor walking stage.

We used grippy socks indoors, Next do some barefoot style shoes, I got some similar in Asda (mostly to keep ds feet warm when we were out, rubber sole but very bendy.
If you have an independent shoe shop near you they're worth a visit as they watch them walk and exactly what their feet are doing then recommend what's best.
Bobux are good, we have Ricosta shoes.
