Can all children use barefoot shoes?
Fortunately, the majority of all children are born with completely normal and well-functioning feet, and yes, they can all use barefoot shoes .
It is normal for children up to the age of 5-6 to have flat feet, and wearing barefoot shoes will only strengthen the instep.
If your child has some kind of crookedness or abnormality in the feet or ankles, I would recommend that you first talk to a health professional . They are completely in control of how the foot should best be trained.
Can you use barefoot shoes when you have previously used conventional children's shoes?
For children aged 1-8 years, there are no problems transitioning to barefoot shoes .
From the age of 7-8, it may be a good idea to make a slower transition, so that the foot can adapt to the "new" way of using the foot, and once again strengthen all the muscles and tendons in the foot.
Which size should I choose?

When should the child have the first pair of shoes?
Usually it is said that the child must learn to take the first steps in bare feet, so ideally it will be when the child has learned to walk.
Strengthening balance when children have just learned to walk is important for their motor development. Here are some tips on how you can help:
🦶🏼Walk barefoot as much as possible - it helps to feel the surface and strengthens the muscles.
👣Use barefoot shoes when barefoot is not an option.
🍀Play on different surfaces such as grass, sand and gravel.
🦶🏼Balance games like walking on a line or standing on one leg are fun and beneficial.
💃🏼Dance and music can make balance exercises even more fun!

Can barefoot shoes be used as a prewalker shoe?
Yes, they certainly can! If the child has just learned to stand and needs a little non-slip surface, I would recommend using a soft slipper . Then you can look at shoes when the child is more stable on his feet and begins to walk around on his own!
After this, our Mateo or transition shoes will be really good as Pre-walker shoes.
