Check out the Pegia Baby Collection: Soft First Steps in Natural Comfort

The Pegia Baby collection will give your little ones the softest start in life. We think that little feet should get the best care possible, which is why our baby line is based on the idea of "natural movement." Every item in our collection is hand-made to protect delicate feet while letting them grow naturally. We have everything from booties for newborns to shoes for first-walkers. In the unpredictable British weather, giving your baby shoes that keep their feet warm and cool is not just a nice thing to do; it's necessary for their health and comfort every day.

Why Real Shearling Is the Best Choice for Your Baby

We won't settle for less than the best materials at Pegia. Our baby collection is built on 100% real sheepskin and shearling that we get directly from our own family-run tanneries. Natural wool is a biological marvel, unlike fake fur or plastic linings. It is naturally hypoallergenic, antibacterial, and temperature-sensitive. In the cold of a UK winter, it keeps tiny toes very warm, and in the warmer spring months, it keeps them from sweating by pulling moisture away from the skin. Our natural shearling has a silky-soft texture that makes it a calming place for babies with sensitive skin. No synthetic alternatives can compare.

Made to Help Feet Grow Strong and Healthy

The "soft-sole" idea is what goes into making our baby boots and booties. Experts in children's health often say that babies should move around barefoot. Our shoes are the next best thing. The construction is flexible and light, so babies can feel the ground beneath them. This helps them balance and their muscles and tendons grow naturally. We have also put practical designs at the top of our list for busy parents. Our baby range has easy-on closures like soft elasticated ankles and secure Velcro straps that keep the shoes on during every kick and crawl, making the morning routine a little easier.

A Heritage That Will Last for Future Generations

When you choose Pegia, you choose a better future for the planet your child will live on. Our baby collection is proof of slow fashion. Since 1998, we've been in charge of our own production chain, which means that every pair of baby shoes is made in a way that is good for the environment and people. We make our leathers in our own tanneries using methods that are good for the environment. These are not cheap, throwaway clothes; they are well-made, long-lasting pieces that you should treasure and eventually give to younger siblings or friends, along with the story of their first steps.

Questions that are often asked

• Can Pegia baby boots be worn outside?

  We have both soft-soled booties for babies to wear inside and while walking in a pram, as well as models with thin, flexible rubber soles for babies who are just starting to walk outside with help. For the wet weather in Britain, we suggest our leather-soled models for comfort inside and our rubber-soled models for short walks outside.

• Can my baby wear these booties without any socks?

  Yes! In fact, the baby can get the most out of the sheepskin's natural ability to regulate temperature and wick away moisture when they don't wear socks. The wool is very soft and gentle on bare skin, making it feel like a cosy cloud.
  
  

• How do I clean the shearling boots my baby wears?

  For small spills, we suggest cleaning the area with a damp cloth and a very mild wool detergent. Always let the boots dry naturally, away from things like radiators that give off direct heat. High heat can make the natural leather hard. Once the suede or wool is dry, you can use a soft brush to make it fluffy again.
