Find out about the Pegia Baby Shoes Collection, which is good for growing feet.
Picking out your child's first pair of shoes is a big deal that needs to be done with care and quality. The Pegia Baby Shoes collection is made with a deep understanding of how babies' feet work. It has a variety of shoes that support natural growth and keep babies warm and safe in the British climate. Our baby shoes are made from the best natural materials in the world and give your baby a "barefoot" feel that helps them balance and grow their muscles. They are perfect for babies who are still crawling or just starting to walk.
Why Real Shearling is the Best Choice for Babies
We at Pegia think that nature knows best. We have been processing 100% real sheepskin and shearling in our own family-run tanneries since 1998. Every pair of shoes in our baby collection is lined with this material. Natural wool is a thermostatic wonder, unlike synthetic linings that can make you hot and uncomfortable. It keeps little toes very warm during a cold UK winter, but it is still breathable enough to keep them from sweating on warmer spring days. Our natural shearling is hypoallergenic and antibacterial, making it a soft, cloud-like place for babies with sensitive skin to sleep all day.
Designing for Healthy First Steps
The first steps a child takes are very important for the health of their feet. Our baby shoes and booties are made with soft, flexible soles that let the foot move, flex, and grow without any problems.
Soft Sole Booties: Great for babies and toddlers who are crawling because they keep them warm and safe without adding extra weight.
First Walkers: These shoes have lightweight, non-slip outsoles that help toddlers feel safe when they walk on different surfaces.
Easy-On Design: We added safe Velcro straps and elastic openings to keep the shoes on during every kick and make getting dressed easy for busy parents.
A Tradition of Lasting Craftsmanship
When you buy Pegia Baby Shoes, you are making a conscious choice to support slow fashion. Our shoes are made by master craftsmen from high-quality leather and suede that are byproducts of the food industry and are good for the environment. We are in charge of the whole production chain to make sure that the shoes your baby wears are as good for the environment as they are for their feet. These are strong, high-quality pieces that are meant to be kept as mementos or given to the next generation of little explorers.
Questions that are often asked
-
When should I put Pegia shoes on my baby?
Our soft-sole booties are safe and warm for babies from birth. Our more structured "first walker" models give babies the grip and support they need to take their first steps when they start to pull themselves up or cruise along furniture.
-
Can my baby wear these shoes without socks?
Of course. The real sheepskin lining is very soft and wicks away moisture, making it very comfortable against bare skin. If you don't wear socks with them, the natural wool can better control the temperature of the baby's feet.
-
How do I pick the right size for my baby?
Baby feet grow quickly, so we suggest measuring your child's foot from heel to toe and adding about 1 cm for growth room. Our shoes may feel tight at first because of the thick shearling lining, but the natural wool will slowly settle and shape itself to their foot after a few wears.
