Why Materials Matter: How We Choose the Best for Little Feet

When we design barefoot shoes for kids, we don’t cut corners. For us, materials matter just as much as the shape, function, and visual of the shoe. That’s why we stick to a simple rule: choose only what’s high-quality, safe for children, and made to last.

 


 

 

Mastrotto Leather: Italian Quality with a Story

 

Most of our shoes are made with premium leather from Mastrotto, a well-known Italian tannery that blends craftsmanship with strict eco standards. This leather isn’t just beautiful – it’s soft, breathable, and strong enough to handle everyday adventures.

Kids move a lot (and we love that). So their shoes need to be made from materials that can keep up – gentle on the skin and comfy all day. That’s exactly what Mastrotto leather offers.

 


 

 

Handcrafted with Care – You Can Feel It in Every Step

 

Even the best materials need skilled hands to bring them to life. In our small workshop in Klátova Nová Ves, each pair of Babybare shoes is made with love and care by experienced shoemakers. Every stitch, every detail is done with attention.

 

Because we handcraft a big part of the process, no two pairs are exactly the same. And that’s the beauty of it – each one is unique, made slowly and carefully, not rushed on a factory line.

 


 

 

Why This All Matters

 

Kids’ skin is more delicate than adults’. That’s why we only use materials that are breathable, safe, and free from harsh chemicals. And when materials are high-quality, the shoes last longer, hold their shape better, and adjust more naturally to a growing foot.

 


 

 

Quality You Can Feel – Right from the First Try-On

 

At Babybare, we care about every step your child takes. From choosing the perfect leather to sewing and final checks, everything passes through our hands. Because we believe that healthy, well-made shoes help kids move freely, confidently, and with joy.
