FAQ - Baby booties and first steps

Baby booties and shoes for baby's first steps are topics that worry parents a lot.

At what age should my baby start wearing booties or shoes?


Babies don't need shoes until they start walking. Before that, soft booties or non-slip socks may suffice to keep their feet warm and protected.

What are the criteria for choosing shoes for first steps?


Shoes should be light, flexible, with a non-slip sole, and offer good support without being too tight. It's also important that they be made of breathable materials such as leather or fabric.

How do I know if my baby's shoes are the right size?


Make sure there's about half an inch (1.25 cm) of space between the baby's big toe and the end of the shoe. Baby's feet must be able to move freely inside the shoes.

Should I choose lace-up or velcro shoes for my baby's first steps?


Scratch-off shoes are often more practical, as they are easy to put on and adjust. They can also be adjusted as your baby's feet grow.

Should babies wear shoes at home?


It's generally best to leave your baby barefoot at home, to encourage muscle development and balance. If the floor is cold or slippery, soft booties with non-slip soles can be used.

How often should I check the size of my baby's shoes?


Baby's feet grow quickly, so it's advisable to check shoe size every two to three months.

What materials are best for baby shoes and booties?


Natural materials such as leather, cotton or suede are preferable, as they are breathable and supple. Avoid rigid materials that can restrict foot movement.

Are soft leather booties a good option for first steps?


Yes, soft leather slippers are excellent for first steps, as they protect the feet while allowing freedom of movement and a good feel for the ground surface.

How do I care for my baby's booties and shoes?


Follow the manufacturer's cleaning instructions. Most leather booties can be wiped with a damp cloth. Fabric shoes can often be washed by hand or machine.
