Medical experts all around the world agree that bare feet is best for babies. Allowing babies to walk barefooted, without any restrictions, in the first year helps them to develop good toe gripping exercise, strong ankles and flexible foot bones.

This creates a solid foundation for bone and muscle formation in the rest of the body, especially the spinal column. A level pelvis and straight spine depend on healthy feet throughout our entire lives, starting from infancy. Besides, wearing stiff shoes can cause babies' feet to be pulled out of shape, and prevent their curly toes from straightening.

While being barefooted is the best for babies, it is impractical at times. Soft-soled leather shoes are the next best thing. Bobux Eco-Leather™ is flexible, soft and breathable. The soft sole allows freedom of movement, while protecting babies from injuries.
