Winter asks children’s footwear the hardest questions. Will you hold the warmth? Will you stop the wet? And will you let the foot move? Be Lenka kids’ winter barefoot boots answer yes three times. Warming materials, well-thought-out winter workmanship and barefoot freedom, thanks to which children move naturally all winter long.
Are winter barefoot boots suitable for children?
They are, and perhaps surprisingly it’s in winter that they make the most sense. A child’s foot develops all year round, and stiff winter footwear locks it into immobility for long months. Barefoot winter boots let the muscles work even in frost, and free toes maintain better circulation, which means warmer feet. What’s more, the flexible sole lets children feel the surface, so they step more surely on snow and ice.
Winter boots a child puts on alone
Winter gear is a logistical operation. Snowsuit, gloves, hat and finally the boots. Be Lenka kids’ winter models build on easy putting-on with velcro or a zip, which a child manages without help even in thicker clothing. Morning departures are suddenly faster, and the child has a small victory to their name even before breakfast. A little thing that makes winter mornings bearable.
Warmth without heavy boots
Classic winter boots tend to be heavy, and children stop moving in them. And a motionless child is a frozen child. Our winter models take the opposite path. Warming materials and winter workmanship hold the heat, but the construction stays light and flexible, so the child runs, jumps and plays the whole time outdoors. Movement is the best heating, and barefoot footwear supports it instead of hindering it.
For school, a walk and the first snow
The kids’ winter boots in this category are the all-rounders of the cold months. They handle the way to school, an afternoon on the playground and a family walk through a snowy park. When you’re heading into deep snow, sledging or the mountains, reach for the taller kids’ barefoot snow boots. And for milder winter days without snow, year-round kids’ barefoot shoes with a warm sock will serve as well. Winter thus has no chance of catching the children off guard.
Frequently asked questions about kids’ winter barefoot boots
How much extra length to choose with kids’ winter boots?
+ -More than with other children’s footwear. The boot must leave room for a thick sock, an insulating layer of air and above all for growth; a child’s foot gets bigger during winter before the season ends. Measure the foot with a winter sock on and stick to the upper end of the extra length in the model’s size chart.
Can a child wear winter boots all day at school?
+ -We don’t recommend it. In a warm classroom, the foot overheats and sweats in insulated footwear, which is unpleasant, and a damp boot then warms worse outside. Pack indoor shoes for school and let the winter boots rest in the cloakroom. They’ll then last drier, warmer and longer.
From what temperatures should children wear winter boots?
+ -As a rule of thumb, when morning temperatures drop towards zero and stay low all day. Rather than the calendar, watch the child; cold toes after coming back from outside are a clear signal. During the transitional weeks, year-round shoes with a warmer sock serve brilliantly; let the full winter gear step in with the first frost.
