RAYVE Cupertino Junior Kids' Barefoot Trainers Black

Welcome to the barefoot family our best kids' trainers! RAYVE Cupertino Junior are children's barefoot trainers that respect the natural development of your child's foot. Lightweight, flexible and spacious enough – exactly what first shoes and beyond should be. Thanks to the improved cut that's narrower in the heel, they fit perfectly.

The combination of nubuck leather and textile ensures durability and breathability, whilst the thin sole allows children to feel the ground and use their feet naturally. The simple fastening makes the shoes easy to put on and keeps them secure on the foot.

REVIEWS

"The Cupertino model impressed me. These are wonderfully flexible shoes with a perfect toe shape. The big toe side is beautifully straight, so the toe has plenty of space to properly push off and propel, which naturally strengthens the foot.

What's great is that even though the toe box is wide, the shoe fits perfectly in the heel and doesn't slip. The sole is designed to stabilise the heel and help keep it in the correct axis, which prevents the ankles from rolling inward. The gently reinforced back of the shoe is a great help in this regard. Children can easily put them on themselves and from experience I know they are really very durable."
