Kids' Shoes I Move First Sizes 8 to 11 - Navy Blue

Between ages one and six, feet play an important role in children's development and growth. Our shoes address the specific needs of children's feet during their many development stages.

From 1 to 2 years (sizes 4 to 7): learning to walk. Feet are flat, round and chubby: our I LEARN shoes are extremely flexible to support children's natural development.From 3 to 6 years (sizes 8 to 11): mastery of walking, running and jumping. The feet get stronger and more slender and the arch begins to form. Our I MOVE shoes are flexible and support the heel.

For children aged 3 to 6 who run and jump, you should choose a shoe that protects their feet while offering good freedom of movement. The Domyos I MOVE shoes also offer better support at the back of the foot. Kids at this age are growing (height, weight) and increasing their physical activity (greater intensity and longer duration). They need more support and protection.

Children's feet experience their biggest growth spurt between the ages of 1 and 3. Be sure to regularly check their shoe size using our foot gauges in our stores, or on our website on our "Size Guide" page

We are all born with flat feet. As we begin to walk, the arch gradually develops through the natural development of our foot muscles. This is why children's shoes do not need to have an arch support when they are still growing (unless otherwise indicated by a healthcare professional).

Regular physical activity from a very young age is beneficial for your child's physical and mental development. Learning healthy habits early on can help limit health problems later in life. Doing a group physical activity also supports your child's social integration and personal development.
