Handcrafting naturally shaped OOAK shoes for adventurous little feet since 2003
I wanted to create a soft sole pre walker that was a little bit different to what's currently available in the kid's shoe world.
All the benefits of being designed around the natural 'barefoot' shape of the foot, supportive and healthy and just that little bit different.
I use all natural leathers and 100% pure wool felt.
My first walkers have the same benefits with the added security of a soft, flexible non slip
sole that still allows little feet to 'feel' the ground underneath encouraging confidence in those first steps.
Mostly 'one offs' my shoes are made one pair at a time, no production lines, limited edition and you wont find them anywhere else.
Size Chart
How to measure baby's foot.
If you can wrangle them, have them bear their weight onto a piece of paper and measure from the heel to the big toe. This gives you their FOOT LENGTH. The SHOE LENGTH will be roughly 1cm longer and will be shown as a Euro size in the third column.
SIZING
Buddy X shoes sizes are quite generous. I use Euro sizing as its a little bit more consistent in the industry and you'll find each brand differs in measurements and approximate ages.
FIT
Buddy X shoes are designed with a roomy toe box to accommodate the natural foot shape and allow baby's foot to flex, grip and move while learning to walk. Every child's physique, development and structure is different so its good practice to measure feet before buying shoes.
PRE WALKERS are made with soft leather soles
FIRST WALKERS have a flexible non slip rubber sole for grip and stability.
CHOOSE YOUR SIZE
Measure baby's foot, find the nearest foot length on the chart, choose your size from the Euro size. If the nearest size is too close, go up to the next size.
