<p>The Original Mesh Kids are the perfect barefoot shoes for active children. The child-friendly interpretation of a classic sneaker provides maximum barefoot feeling and allows little feet to move naturally. Our kids barefoot shoes come with a foot-shaped toe box, are comfortably padded around the heel, and feature a flexible, zero-drop sole and lightweight design. The easy-to-use straps with hook-and-loop fasteners and the finger loop at the back make putting on these minimalist shoes a breeze. They’re made from breathable, recycled mesh and other vegan, child-safe, non-toxic materials. The new rubber sole with its extra outsole stitching, and the protective applications in the toe and heel area provide improved durability. We cover a wide range of sizes, from toddler barefoot shoes to barefoot shoes for older kids. The Original Mesh Kids are unisex.</p> <p>This model is also available as an adult version with laces.
