pediped footwear is designed to be the 'next best thing to bare feet."
They allow children's feet to develop naturally and provide optimal support and protection during the developmental stages of ba the added protection of a padded sole.
pediped™ footwear is recommended by podiatrists
According to the American Podiatric Medical Association, "Allowing the youngster to go barefoot or to wear just socks helps the foot to grow normally and to develop its musculature and strength as well as the grasping action of the toes." Doctors also recommend that children first learning to walk go barefoot or wear soft flexible shoes. Walking around barefoot is not always practical, as little feet need protection from rough surfaces and dirty floors. Soft-soled shoes provide the health benefits of being barefoot, with the added protection of a padded sole.
Officially recognized by the American Podiatric Medical Association as contributing to better foot health, pediped™ footwear is a smart choice for parents concerned with the long-term development of their children's feet. pediped™ has been awarded the prestigious APMA Seal of Acceptance for both its Originals ™ and Flex ™ lines in support of their many beneficial attributes that promote quality foot health including soft cushioned leather soles, a wide toe box and soft leather uppers. |
