Small feet – wild adventures
Those very first steps begin carefully, cautiously. Little feet take note of every tiny shift in weight, playfully balancing it all out in their natural, barefoot way. Shoes that join them on this journey are often just as soft and flexible as the feet they protect so that they don’t inhibit the joy of movement those little feet experience.
As kids grow and their mobility needs become more sophisticated, parents frequently opt for sturdy, long-lasting children’s footwear that can unfortunately be pretty inflexible. But children’s feet grow continuously, and the unrestricted freedom of movement is how they develop healthy motor skills and natural stability.
Prof. Zech from the University of Jena and other experts have discovered that walking barefoot most of the time is in our nature, and numerous studies now underscore the benefits of going barefoot. Even our kids intuitively sense what their feet are for when the first thing they reach for is their shoes.

How can this barefoot sensation be combined with the protection kids need to experience the joy of wild adventures and the natural freedom of movement? Wildling minimal shoes are light and flexible, and they adapt to the shape of the foot. They feature space for the foot to roll in a natural, healthy manner and facilitate an intuitive sense for walking.
Feet that are so perfect when they enter the world don’t need much. As little shoe as possible, as much shoe as necessary. #ThatWildingFeeling
