Best Healthy Shoes For Infants and Toddlers

As your child grows through different developmental stages, it is important that they have the best shoes possible to promote healthy foot growth. KidOFit shoes was created specifically for that reason. Dr Ron Bar PhD, founder of KidOFit, specializes in foot biomechanics and ergonomic design which allows him to hand-craft the best healthy shoes for infants, babies and toddlers.

Ron Bar was developing orthopedic products for 20 years before founding KidOFit. These are some of the features in KidOFit shoes that you will not find in many store-bought shoes:

  • Barefoot comfort. Medical experts say that walking barefoot is the optimal for correct foot development. However, that is not always an option in civilized society. The thin and flexible soles found in KidOFit shoes simulate a barefoot walking experience.
  • Transparent soles. This will allow you to see that your child’s toes are positioned correctly.
  • Customized Fit. By utilizing elastic construction, heel straps, and fitting inserts, KidOFit shoes will build a shoe that is 100% unique and a perfect fit for your child’s foot.

We construct shoes for both boys and girls, from sizes four from nine. If you would like more information on the best healthy shoes for toddlers, contact KidOFit.

Tips to Finding the Perfect Pair of Kids Shoes

Finding a pair of shoes that fit properly for your kids can be difficult. Sometimes, kids have a hard time voicing exactly how their feet feel in shoes. Other times they just want to get out of the store as quickly as possible, so they just settle on a pair of shoes. 

Despite this, there are some qualities of shoes that parents should look out for when it comes to finding the perfect pair of shoes for their kids:

Flexible: An ideal pair of shoes is one that will move with your child. Whether your child is walking, running or playing, shoes should allow your child to move around naturally, without feeling too restricted at any point in time.

Roomy, yet form fitting: Shoes should not be too tight of a fit on kids, but they should also not be too loose. Parents should find kids a pair of shoes that allow them to have enough room to move, yet not too much that they will fall out of them.

Customization: Comfortable shoes should also be able to be customized to fit each individual child’s foot shape. Shoes that have elastic around the heel or an adjustable heel strap provide kids with an easy way to put their shoes on and take them off again. Other ways shoes can be customized is if they have a wide toe box. Shoes with a wide toe box allow kids to have room to move their toes around freely, while at the same time allowing the shoe to form to each child’s foot.

For parents looking for shoes that combine all of these aspects, KidOFit is a company that provides barefoot shoes for kids in a variety of colors and styles. Barefoot shoes are shoes that allow kids to essentially feel the ground as they walk, run or play. These types of shoes help promote healthy foot development, and can last a long time with the adjustable backs and removable foot inserts. Additionally, your kids will like how their feet feel and look in these shoes.

Benefits of Barefoot Children Shoes

Parents always want what is best for their children – from their child's educational experience to the most comfortable shoes. A recent trend available in the world of shoes is barefoot children shoes, a shoe that mimics the sensation of walking barefoot on the ground while still wearing shoes.

Medical experts have commented on the barefoot shoes, claiming that they are the best thing for healthy foot development. These shoes can also help children develop proper posture because of the way they are constructed.

The shoes are created with a lightweight and flexible design, providing children with the chance to really sense their surroundings while walking. The natural movement of the shoe and the notion of being barefoot creates an experience that can only benefit children in the long run.

There are blood vessels, nerves, 26 bones, 19 muscles and 107 ligaments that control the movement of each foot. The information our feet receive in regard to movement stems from the nerves that are in our feet. The closer contact our feet have with the ground, the better it is for our feet to develop in a healthy manner.

Barefoot children shoes are typically constructed with a cushioning insole and a flat sole, which provides children with a comfortable shoe that will support their every move. The shoes are designed to allow free foot movement, providing no restrictions for children.

KidOFit is a brand of shoes that provides barefoot shoes for children. The KidOFit design incorporates elastomer to mimic the barefoot walking experience, a wide toe box, anatomical shape and a clear view of the toes of children.

KidOFit barefoot children shoes provide many benefits for children, from babies to toddlers. Additionally, free shipping is available throughout the U.S. for all KidOFit shoes.

Foot Health of Babies and Toddlers

When babies start walking it seems like nothing can slow them down. This is the time of a toddler's life where the right shoe can save your child a lot of aches and pains later in life. Many knee and joint pains we feel on a regular basis are caused by a problem in our feet, many of these start at a very early age. It is possible to correct these conditions later in life, but preventing them from every happening is the best plan. Babies and toddlers are often affected by several different afflictions in their feet:
  • Pediatric Flatfoot – most children with this condition show no sign of symptoms. Some will have trouble participating in physical activities, and may complain about cramping in the legs, feet and knees.
  • Ingrown Toenails – tight shoes or socks are the most common cause of ingrown toenails in children. When the nail breaks the skin, the area becomes susceptible to serious infections. Treatment for ingrown nails should never be done at home, and only be performed by a doctor.
  • Plantar Warts – Warts can develop anywhere on the foot, but typically they appear on the bottom of the foot. There isn't much you can do for these because they are caused by the human papilloma virus, which causes warts on other parts of the body. These warts can grow deep into the skin and make walking and standing very painful for children.

It is obvious that toddlers enjoy being barefoot, and any parent knows how hard it is to keep shoes on a child. Recent studies show that shoes designed to mimic barefoot walking improve foot health in babies and toddlers, as well as adults. Kid-O-Fit has taken the results of these studies and implemented them in a child's shoe. These comfort shoes for kids not only improve the health of a child's foot, but their ability to expand also eases the pain on parents' wallet.

Soft Sole Shoes for Toddlers and Babies

KidOfit shoes are redefining comfort for toddler and baby shoes across America. Dr. Ron Bar engineered KidOfit baby shoes to be ergonomically crafted for a one-of-a-kind, unique comfort that is not found in any other shoe. 

The features of a KidOfit shoe that put us at the forefront of fit, feel and protection for shoes include:

Soft interior – KidOfit shoes combine soft fabric with a foam padding surrounding the foot, at once conforming to the contours of a foot while supplying support and cushioning. In addition to this, we have removed the seams on the interior of the shoe, eliminating irritation and providing absorption that will maximize protection.

Flexibility – the comfort shoes by KidOfit allow the foot to respond naturally to changes in the walking surface, mimicking barefoot walking. Barefoot shoes for babies and barefoot shoes for toddlers are hailed by experts worldwide as being the best option for foot growth, healthy development and comfort.

Anatomical shape – while regular shoes are wider at the heel of the foot, optimal foot development should allow the toes to expand and wriggle without constriction. KidOfit features this revolutionary design and promotes the expansion of baby toes.

Easy on and off – A wide and adjustable opening and tongue area mean that you can always put the shoes on and take them off, regardless of the cooperation of the child! At the same time as making this process easier for parents, these shoes don’t squeeze the toes as they slip over the foot.


With these numerous benefits, KidOfit is the revolutionary new shoe that has changed the way you will look at baby foot growth and health. If you want to learn more about our great product, contact KidOfit today by looking at our website.

What is Barefoot Comfort?

KidOfit is an innovative new brand of toddler shoes and baby shoes designed for promoting growth of the foot, proper movement and posture and above all, comfort. Barefoot Comfort in shoes is recognized across the world as the best option for allowing baby feet and toddler feet to feel unrestricted and keep the motions of walking flexible and natural. The more a foot can feel the ground, the better our bodies are able to adapt and respond to the surroundings.

Here is what some of our child foot development experts have had to say about barefoot walking:

“…children who had the opportunity of going barefoot a great deal had less deformed toes, greater flexor strength and more ability to spread their toes” – Dr. Wikler, DPM

“…common foot problems are caused either by poorly designed or poorly fitted shoes” – Dr. Brand

“…children are more likely to have good posture if they go without shoes as often as is possible and safe” – Dr. Perry, M.P.T.

Having a comfortable shoe is important, but KidOfit offers medical advantages that cannot be found in other children’s shoes. Our trademarked sole design is the first of its kind and offers a wide array of benefits both now and down the line.
