The First Steps range pays special attention to supporting the heel and ankle,
whilst maintaining lightness and flexibility, to help children learn to walk.
In that early stage when children are just starting to walk, they need shoes with good ankle support, ideally with laces or buckles, and a thin, flexible sole so the foot can move freely. Closed shoes with protective soles and reinforced toes are essential for protecting their feet, especially if they’re still crawling.
In the second stage, when children can stand but are still developing their walking, it is essential to support and protect the foot. Laces make the shoes easier to adjust for optimal support, while the Velcro fastening, though still supportive, is the more practical and ergonomic option.
Shoes with a removable insole also have additional advantages: the shoes can be used with orthopaedic insoles, the insoles can be washed and shoes can be adjusted after a growth spurt.
First Steps sandals
The Bellamy sandal is specifically designed to help little ones as they take their first steps. It ensures excellent support thanks to a Velcro or buckle fastening, and the non-slip sole guarantees optimal safety. On some styles, two Velcro straps help them adjust perfectly to any foot shape, while the closed toe ensures comfort and protection.
In line with the brand’s commitment to safety, they are made from leather that’s free from chrome 6 to protect children’s health.
