About Tiny Steps Flex Scarpe per Neonati e Bambini Piccoli
Tiny Steps Flex è un paio di scarpe progettate per neonati e bambini che passano dal gattonamento ai primi passi. La suola esterna presenta rilievi bidirezionali ispirati agli zoccoli delle pecore, per migliorare l'aderenza al suolo e la stabilità. Uno speciale arco tra i cuscinetti dell'alluce e del mignolo consente una flessione naturale delle dita. La tomaia è realizzata in fibra naturale ed è leggera ed elastica, per permettere al piede di muoversi liberamente. Un'ampia fascia morbida rende le scarpe facili da calzare e da togliere. Tomaia e suola sono cucite tra loro, evitando così l'uso di adesivi chimici. Una soletta all'artemisia con punti massaggianti aggiunge un comfort antibatterico.

To solve this issue, this pair of shoes has been revolutionized with a bionic design at the outsole, tailored for the growth needs of this age group. And the specialized arch, at the curved juncture between the balls of big and small toes, improves toe flexibility and strength, fostering healthy gait development.
