What Makes a Great Everyday Shoe?
As a pediatric physical therapist, there are a few key features I look for when choosing shoes for developing feet:
Remember, the best shoe is the one that fits your child well, supports their needs and works for your family, budget and real life.
- Wide, foot-shaped toe box so toes can move, splay, and strengthen
- Thin, flexible sole that allows the foot to move and react more naturally
- Good traction to help prevent slipping
- Adjustability so you can get a secure fit without the foot sliding around inside the shoe
Remember, the best shoe is the one that fits your child well, supports their needs and works for your family, budget and real life.
