When babies take their first tentative steps, it isn’t long before parents begin the search for their very first shoes. In fact, many purchase cruisers as soon their little ones begin to crawl, if not before with the idea being that young children require support for their developing feet. Whilst parents often spend a great deal of time researching the correct shoes and taking their children for fittings, the idea that children need shoes at all at such a young age has, in fact, become a harmful myth that is taking its toll on their overall development. But, many experts believe that the best thing for a child’s foot is no shoes at all.
