Froddo Barefoot Kids' Trainers | F-Motion Leather & Suede - Dark Blue
Sporty barefoot trainers for children, designed for regular movement with a flexible sole, foot-shaped fit, and adjustable fastening.
Froddo’s Barefoot F-Motion kids' shoes are a great option for children who want the look of a trainer with the benefits of proper barefoot design. These everyday pumps are built for active days, combining a sporty profile with the flexibility and comfort growing feet need.
The upper is made from a mix of natural leather and water-repellent suede, offering durability and light weather protection while remaining breathable. Inside, a chrome-free leather lining feels soft against the skin, and the flat, removable antibacterial microfibre insole helps keep feet fresh during all-day wear.
Designed with a wide, foot-shaped toe box and zero heel drop, these barefoot trainers allow natural movement, balance, and stability. The flexible rubber outsole features extra grip, supporting confident walking, running, and play without stiffness or restriction.
With a universal medium-width shape, these shoes are designed to suit a wide range of foot shapes from narrow to wide. Two adjustable Velcro fastenings make them easy to put on and take off, while also supporting independent dressing. Sporty side stripes give these pumps a trainer-style look that works well for sports club, PE lessons, and everyday wear.
Why barefoot shoes for kids?
Barefoot shoes are designed to protect children’s feet without interfering with natural development. With flexible soles, flat profiles, and wide toe boxes, Froddo barefoot trainers allow feet to move freely, supporting balance, coordination, and long-term foot health.
Materials & ethics
Made in Europe using responsibly sourced materials, Froddo shoes use leather from Leather Working Group certified suppliers and are produced under fair working conditions. Froddo’s manufacturing takes place using 100% green electricity and follows climate-responsible practices aligned with their commitment to the Science Based Targets initiative.
Fit & sizing
These shoes fit true to size and are designed to suit narrow, medium, and wide feet. The adjustable double Velcro fastening allows for a secure, personalised fit. We recommend allowing 10 to 12mm of growing room. Use our printable foot measuring guide to help find the right size.
