Tips for Buying Baby's First Shoes

For the first year, the best shoes are no shoes. But let's be realistic, what doting new parent (auntie, grandpa, or bestie) doesn't want to see that little one in adorable tiny shoes?! So how do you choose the best for those little tootsies? Let us break it down for you, offer our insight and suggestions...

When learning to cruise or walk, feeling the ground beneath her feet will help your baby learn to balance. You'll want to choose shoes that mimic being barefooted. Also, it's a misbelief that ankle support is needed, when in fact it may hinder your baby's natural range of motion. Pass on the high-tops for now and let his muscles develop and strengthen on their own.

Here are three more things to keep in mind when shopping for shoes:

Flexibility: Baby's first shoes should move with them, through every little twist, turn, and wiggle.

Breathability: Choose shoes made of breathable fabrics and leathers. These allow air to circulate and provide the best flexibility. Avoid plastics! (No matter how cute they are!)

Roominess: New shoes should always allow for growth and wiggles, we usually recommend 1/4 inch  of space or about the size of an adults pinky. This allows for natural movements within the shoe and plenty of growing time to ooh and aah!

At Tiny Soles, we carefully select all of the shoes for quality, fashion and foot health. We have done all the hard work so you can have fun shopping knowing you are choosing the best for your baby! While we love every shoe we carry, here are three of our very favorite brands for the littlest feet...
