Tiny Feet

My DD2 is 16 months old and has THE tiniest feet known to man for her age!! She only just fits in to size 3-6 month soft baby shoes. She is walking and is getting really upset and frustrated that she cant walk outside in places where soft shoes arent suitable. She is no-where near registering on Clarks foot scale. Does anybody know of anywhere that does hard soled shoes for tiny tots? Not having much joy looking on the internet and feel so sorry for her having to sit inside and watch DD1 running round the garden in wellies !

DD is atiny tot too. Started walking at 11months and was still wearing 3-6month shoes.
I asked Clarks advice and they told me not to let her walk outside...not very helpful when your trying to encourage this newfound skill!
We ordered shoes from spain as their fittings are alot smaller. I dont have a website though im afraid as we have spanish family who bought them over there.
Apparently the italians also do smaller sizes so maybe have a look on ebay for spanish/italian baby shoes and see what you get.
I hope this helps somewhat xx

My DD1's first shoes were size 1.5 (four months after she was walking competently!) and they were made by Elefanten. The smallest size anywhere else were pre-walkers in size 3.

It might be worth looking to see if there are any Elefanten stockists around your way who could order some tiny sizes for your DD to try.

DD1 couldn't believe it when she was actually allowed to get down and walk back to the car that day. I will never forget the look of joy and excitement in her face.

Forgot to say the price was not in proportion to the size!!! It was worth every penny though!

It was a great relief when she got into Clarks.

There may be something suitable at www.lillifoot.co.uk
