Gekko sneakers Grass

Gekko sneakers are designed with the natural development of children's feet in mind. With unique features, they ensure comfort, health and freedom of movement:

• Flat sole without slope - Supports natural posture and optimal body development.
• Thin sole - It allows children to make contact with the ground and strengthens their balance.
• Wide front - It allows natural toe movement and development, which is essential for healthy feet.
• Non-slip rubber - Ensure a safe stride on all surfaces.
• Finger protection - Rubber over the toes increases durability and protects the shoes from wear and tear during play and exploration, making every step worry-free.
• Exceptional breathability - Perforated materials to keep feet dry and fresh.
• Easy velcro fastening and elasticated laces - The combination of a Velcro strap and elasticated laces allows for a fast, secure and comfortable fit, while ensuring a flexible fit to the foot.
• Feather-light (less than 100 g) - Children will feel like they are walking barefoot, which encourages natural movement.
• Machine washable - The trainers can be washed in a cold wash for easy maintenance. Air dry only!
• Available in three colours - Choose from coral pink, sand and green to suit every style.

Created with health and style in mind, they are the perfect combination of functionality and aesthetics. Gekko is the perfect barefoot sneaker that allows children to walk comfortably, healthily and confidently from their very first steps.

How to measure your child's foot correctly:

1. Prepare the utensils: You will need paper, pencil and ruler.
2. Layout: Position your child so that he/she is standing upright on the paper. Make sure that the weight is evenly distributed on both feet.
3. Outline: Draw the outline of both feet - always measure both feet as feet often vary in size.
4. Length: Using a ruler, measure the distance from the heel to the longest toe.
5. Width: Measure the widest part of the foot.
6. Appendix: For a comfortable fit and natural foot development, add 0.7 cm to 1 cm to the length of the foot.
7. Comparison: In the table below, find the size corresponding to the measured length and width, allowing for the allowance.

Table of sizes

Example: if your child's foot measures 15.0 cm long and 6.5 cm wide, add 0.7 cm to 1 cm. The total length will be 15.7 cm to 16.0 cm. In this case, choose size 26 as it corresponds to a length of 16,3 cm and a width of 6,8 cm.

Why barefoot footwear?

• Natural foot development - No raised heel or cushioning, allowing feet to develop in harmony with nature.
• Strengthening muscles - Walking in barefoot shoes activates more muscles in the feet and legs, which helps to make them stronger.
• Improving balance - The thin sole encourages direct contact with the ground, which improves your child's sense of stability.
• Preventing deformation - The wide front prevents pinching of the fingers and allows a natural finger position.
• Promoting healthy walking - Barefoot shoes allow children to develop a natural, stable and efficient way of walking.

Maintenance:  Gekko shoes can be machine washed at 30 degrees and air dried. Do not dry the shoes in a tumble dryer or on a direct heat source (radiator, stove). We also recommend using an impregnating spray to protect the shoe from moisture and dirt. Scrub the shoes when they are dry and use an eraser to remove stubborn stains from the front rubber.

WARNING! Shoes can wear out more quickly when you ride a bike or a powered scooter. This type of wear is not grounds for a complaint. Always make sure your shoes fit properly before putting them on. Shoes worn outside cannot be returned.
