Designs by Robeez

In 1994 Sandra Wilson, a young wife and mother, was downsized out of her airline job. Wishing to spend more time with her 18-month old son Robert, Sandra saw this as an opportunity to start her own home-based business. For inspiration, she looked to her son’s tiny feet.

Sandra set out to handcraft a pair of brightly colored, soft-soled leather shoes for young Robert. She was pleased to discover that the shoes seemed to improve his balance, because the soft soles allowed him to “feel” the floor while he toddled about. Sandra decided to name the shoes after her son. “Robeez” shoes were born.

Pediatricians and family doctors to orthopedic surgeons attest to the medical benefits of Robeez shoes for developing feet. They not only recommend them to their patients, but their own young children wear them too.

How soft soles help developing feet:

As your baby’s feet are developing, walking barefoot helps toes get a better grip and develops foot strength. And contrary to popular belief, a baby doesn’t actually need support from shoes. The foot’s muscles are well equipped to do the job. While being barefoot is best, sometimes it just isn’t practical. Your baby’s tender feet need protection from rough surfaces and cooler temperatures.

Robeez research has shown that soft-soled shoes are the best choice in footwear. They promote the healthy development of growing feet. Soft soles promote freedom of movement and allow the foot to flex, while still offering a protective, comfortable layer. Robeez suede soles are also skid-resistant, while the leather is flexible, soft and breathable. That’s comforting for you to know. And comforting for baby to wear.
