Description Bundgaard Misty Banana low-cut, lightweight barefoot rubber boots for children. These yellow rubber boots feature a foot-shaped toe box and are made from natural rubber, free from harmful chemicals. The flexible, waterproof rubber outsole allows natural foot movement while providing good grip. A natural cotton lining and removable cotton insoles allow for easy drying, and help monitor foot growth. A narrower heel ensures a secure fit. Lighter and more flexible than winter-lined boots, they’re perfect for active kids in all kinds of weather. When to wear: Ideal for wet conditions from spring to autumn. We recommend wearing rubber boots only when necessary – on rainy days when other shoes are no longer waterproof. Fit: Bundgaard rubber boots are a good fit for feet of medium and wide width. The boots are not suitable for low instep and wide calves. Rubber boots cannot be well attached to the ankle, meaning they should fit the kid’s feet very well – not be too wide or too high to avoid the pressure on feet muscles. If shoes are not well attached to the ankle, we unconsciously use our feet muscles to keep them on. This causes pressure in the muscles and prevents blood circulation. Most kids are not able to determine if shoes fit them well which is why we as parents need to make sure the boots are a good fit. Upper material: natural rubber Lining material: cotton Insole: cotton, removable Outsole: natural rubber Care: we recommend cleaning the rubber boots regularly. After cleaning apply oil (special or neutral-taste cooking oil) with a soft sponge or cloth. Repeat this at regular intervals.

Barefoot shoes are the most comfortable shoes your child has ever worn. They are characterized by: Wide toe box following the natural shape of toes Zero heel-to-toe drop No arch support A flexible and thin sole Lightweight
