OUR POSITION

What makes Littlestride different

The bones of the foot are largely cartilage well into the teenage years. That's why we build every shoe on the same four principles — and why we don't sell anything that breaks them.

01

Zero drop

Heel and toe at exactly the same height, so the foot lands naturally with every step.

02

Wide toe box

Toes can splay freely — that builds balance and stronger arches.

03

Flexible sole

If the shoe won't roll up, we don't sell it. The foot should do the work.

04

No arch support

A healthy child's arch is built by being used — not by being held up.

WINTER

Warm all the way out

Boots that hold the heat and keep the slush out — without making the step stiff.

SUMMER

Barefoot all summer

Sandals, swim and sunglasses — light enough to forget they're on.

FIT

The right size, every time

The most common cause of foot trouble in children isn't the wrong kind of shoe — it's the wrong size. Children rarely say anything, because toes would sooner curl than hurt.
