Toddler & Children's Leather Mary-Jane Shoes Metallic Silver

SKEANIE Mary Jane shoes in Metallic Silver are hand made from soft genuine leather. These shoes feature luxurious leather uppers and lining, super light-weight flexible soles and FLEX-easeTM technology - elaticised ankle for added comfort and superior fit. Leather upper, leather lining with a flexible, light-weight man-made sole. Metallic leathers are created using a hot press technique in which foil is bonded to the leather.

Metallics are not as durable as regular leathers, and if the foil is scratched it will expose the leather underneath. There is no process we know of to re-foil shoes, so please tread with care!

SKEANIE leather shoes and boots are made from soft, comfortable leather and feature thin, flexible rubber and/or suede soles as this is recommend for growing feet. Our shoes should be worn for 'special' occasions. They do enjoy walking, running and playing; however, they do not like getting wet, being used as brakes on your bike or scooter, kicking a footy, climbing trees or walking through mud and dirt.

SIZING

• Ensure your child's foot is relaxed before measuring.
• Measure towards the end of the day to ensure foot is at it's largest.
• Place your child's foot on a piece of paper Draw a line at the heel and at the big toe - measure the foot length in mm.
• DO NOT add to your child's foot length as wriggle room has been factored in.
• Whilst we have tried our best to make our sizing guide as accurate as possible, the sizing of our shoes may vary slightly between designs

About SKEANIE
They say necessity is the mother of invention. And when new mother Natasha Barber had her first child in 2005 and couldn't find the right kind of soft, quality shoes for her precious baby's feet, she decided to do something about it - create her own. Her own company, that is. Natasha began to research tirelessly about foot health and development and was initially surprised to discover very little information or education available. It sparked in her the need to delve even deeper. What began as an interest in podiatry, turned into a passion for manufacturing shoes. It resulted in Natasha launching her own company, SKEANIE Shoes for Kids.

DID YOU KNOW?
A baby's foot contains more cartilage than bone. Although the structure of the foot develops fully by the first two years, the bones themselves do not fully develop and harden until around the age of 13. The greatest changes in the foot occur in the first three years. Children's feet endure three times more stress than the average adult foot. A child's foot sweats twice as much as an adult's foot!
