It’s tempting: those cute shoes from your older child may still look like new. You might think it’s easy to hand them down to your little one. However, this isn’t as harmless as it seems.
Children’s shoes are like little cushions for tiny feet: they shape themselves to the feet of the wearer. What was perfect for the first child is now fully adapted to the feet of your older child. This means the shoes have slightly deformed – something that is hardly visible to the naked eye.
Wearing used shoes can be detrimental to the foot development of your other child. The shape may be slightly skewed, the sole worn in, and support no longer optimal. This can affect your child’s walking pattern and posture, especially in toddlers who are still learning to walk.
At Junior Steps Zonhoven, we always recommend choosing new shoes for each child, tailored to their feet and development. This ensures your child can learn to walk and play safely and comfortably, with shoes that adapt nicely to their feet and provide proper support.
Worried about the cost? No problem! In our outlet, you’ll find models with high discounts that are still completely new and unworn. You can save money without compromising on comfort, quality, and fit.
Although used children’s shoes may look good, they can do more harm than good to your other child’s feet. Choose quality, comfort, and a perfect fit – or explore our outlet models for a smart, safe, and more affordable choice.
