School shoes


When putting together a school layette for a toddler, we think about many details. We want to provide the child with everything that is comfortable, good quality and practical.

We check every detail and evaluate the workmanship. Among pencil cases, backpacks and many accessories, school shoes occupy a strategic place. This is where the child spends many hours every day. So – what school shoes should you choose and what should you take into account?

What should you consider when choosing school shoes?

Firstly, practicality and comfort. Remember that your child's feet will spend an average of 6 to 8 hours each day in the shoes we buy. It is therefore important that they are airy, flexible and at the same time stable and well-shaped. Let's pay attention to the material and its properties. If it is leather – is it soft and delicate enough? If it is plastic, does it allow enough air to pass through?

The weight of the footwear is also important. If they are too heavy, they will become unbearable and cause leg fatigue and irritation. In light shoes, walking through the corridors and spending many hours at school will not be a problem.

Measuring a child's foot

First of all, it should be emphasized that buying shoes that are too big is a wrong move. A child in loose shoes will feel uncomfortable, it will also have a negative impact on his feet and may even result in gait distortion and abrasions. A child's foot grows quickly, that's a fact. However, it is unacceptable to choose too large shoes "for the future".

They should fit well to properly hold the leg. It is important that we do not forget about the possible change in foot size depending on the time of day - it happens that the foot may be longer or wider, especially in summer, on extremely hot days. Walking around all day in shoes is simply tiring for the legs, so when choosing the size, pay attention to whether school shoes are not too tight.

Comfortable wearing

Depending on the season and the weather outside, let's choose the most optimal solution for the child. Let's make sure that school shoes do not have any stiff or sharp decorative elements. Velcro fasteners will be a good solution, although for an older student it will not be so important, considering his independence.

Sports shoes for school

Your child should be provided with shoes both for exercising during physical education classes and for everyday functioning during lessons. One pair of shoes is out of the question. First, it will be unhygienic. A sweaty foot after a volleyball match needs to rest in dry, fresh shoes. Secondly, sports shoes are shaped differently and those used for moving around school corridors have a different function. Leave sports shoes for team games and runs. The child must have a second pair for the remaining lessons.

When looking for sports footwear, let's take into account the material used in production. It must be breathable, quick-drying and gentle to the child's skin. Let's also take a look at the sole - is it flexible and flexible enough? The specificity of physical education lessons is that the training is filled with various forms of activity, ranging from team games to elements of yoga and fitness. Sports footwear for children should therefore be adapted to intensive use as much as possible.

Let's also remember about the non-marking white or gray sole, which will not leave any marks on the gymnastic surface. Please note that the shoes are stable and the child's legs do not bend in them - stabilization will guarantee safety during sudden movements, jumps and figure-making.

Stylish and healthy for your feet

Children, especially older ones, pay more and more attention to fashion and design. They want to express themselves through various styles and feel confident among their peers. They observe the preferences of their colleagues, follow trends and thus choose something that best reflects their personality. Let's give them a chance to find shoes in which they will feel not only comfortable, but also fashionable.

Both colors and design (or lack thereof, if the child prefers minimalism) are important. When choosing footwear for school, we should take into account the fact that every day our child dresses differently for classes, so the footwear should be as universal in color as possible so that it does not stand out from the clothes.

A fashionable appearance does not have to mean giving up your health. There are many models of school shoes whose high quality matches the original appearance. It is important to adjust the style to the child's feet, taking into account all special anatomical features. Well-chosen footwear ensures a rested body.
