A highly breathable barefoot shoe designed for children's natural posture and movement. These lightweight and comfortable Astelu children's barefoot shoes feature an elastic, breathable knit upper, perfect for warm weather. The heelless design promotes a more natural posture and gait. For easy care, the shoes are machine-washable on a gentle cycle. The thin, flexible rubber sole (4 mm) provides confident walking on various surfaces. Barefoot or minimalist shoes are excellent for children's early years and for traversing natural terrain. For older children or for playing and running on hard surfaces like asphalt and concrete, we recommend sneakers with enhanced shock absorption.
