First shoes should feel like almost nothing at all.

Stitched from soft leather with a flexible sole, so small feet bend and grip the way they’re meant to while they’re still learning how. No stiff toe box, no hard heel, just leather that gives, and an elasticated ankle that stays on when they’d rather it didn’t.

Hand-cut in the same workshop as everything else we make, in colours that survive a real toddler.

Made by us.

Soft leather upper and lining, flexible leather sole, elasticated ankle.
Hand-cut in Gauteng.

Wipe with a soft dry cloth. Keep out of direct sun. Feed with a neutral leather balm two or three times a year — more if you wear them hard.
