Soft kitty, warm kitty... you know the song that makes you comfortable even in the hard times? Here is a story about one father who was searching for comfortable shoes for his toddler.
And because he didn’t know what first shoes to choose for the baby, he decided to educate himself on the Internet. Mom would know right away or go to a mommy discussion forum for advice, but daddy asked Google for help to find him some trustworthy sources of information.
Fortunately, he had enough common sense to distinguish sensible advice from the marketing bluffs of well-known brands. Soon, he pieced together the picture that the healthiest shoes for this child would be the ones that most closely imitate the natural functioning of bare feet.
One pair in which the little toes will have enough space to function and develop. Shoes with thin, flat, and flexible soles in all directions allow the baby to be stable and to perceive impulses from the surface. Bottom line, he looked for barefoot shoes.
So he found an e-shop with Barefoot shoes, where a whole new world appeared before his eyes. He was surprised that barefoot shoes didn’t look like the esoteric sandals or toe socks he had seen in the past. He even caught a glimpse of sneakers and formal shoes that he would not be shy to wear to town or the office.
But what caught his eye was the category tailored to his requirements - Soft soles. He was sure that he had found the perfect footwear for his baby.
He liked their soft design, tightening in the ankle area, but most importantly, funny childish fabric patterns. Following the detailed instructions, he measured the baby’s foot to order the correct size. Before paying, he remembered a pair of men's shoes that had caught his eye while browsing the site, and at the last minute, he threw them into his basket.
He wondered if he should look at some shoes for his wife that he could add to the shopping basket to improve the whole family's health. Looking at the wide range, he was baffled. He couldn't choose the perfect one, so he decided to leave it up to his wife since he's already met the limit for free shipping.
The shipment arrived within few days, and the soft soles were even more beautiful in person than in the photos. They fit the baby perfectly and did not restrict his movement at all. Mum nodded in approval. She hadn’t expected such a good choice from her husband. As he stepped in front of her in his new stylish sneakers, she inconspicuously remembered the name of the store that she must visit shortly:
