Toxins Have Us Running For Eco-Friendly Baby and Kid Shoes
I usually check ingredients carefully when it comes to food, cosmetics and toys, but recently I’ve been curious to look more carefully into what goes into shoes.
Have you ever wondered what shoes are made of?
Finding healthy, non-toxic shoes for kids was a real challenge! I like my baby/toddler shoes to be healthy, comfortable AND stylish, which is even a bigger challenge.
Dangerous chemicals are used to dye leather shoes, and many people who work and live near tanneries are dying from cancer caused by exposure. Most of our kids shoes are loaded with these chemicals and there are unfortunately no strict safety standards in the US.
If there were guidelines for toxic chemicals in our children’s clothing and shoes, would we find a great increase in recalls? We think so.
Non-toxic and Eco-Friendly Toddler Shoes
We were happy to have found Pedoodles® Eco-Friendly line for Toddlers age 8 months to 4 years. They are free of formaldehyde, lead, antimony, arsenic, barium, cadmium, mercury, selenium and amines.
Pedoodles: Style and Comfort
My daughter did not want to take the shoes off the first time after she put them on. She has very wide feet and it’s difficult to find a comfortable shoe for her. These Pedoodles® Eco Shoes were a perfect fit!
The PedFlex™ flat rubber soles are extremely comfortable and are not slippery. Also, they look great with any outfit, dress or casual jeans.
They’re very easy to put on because of the simple velcro closure. They also help to keep the shoes securely on feet and are way more practical than laces that constantly come undone.
She also runs and climbs well with them at the playground. They seem to be very breathable too!
Do Your Shoes Meet Safety Standards?
Pedoodles® Eco-Friendly line is safety tested and passed British Safety Standards BS 5665-3 and European Standard EN71-3. The soles are made with recycled materials to help reduce global waste.
Another great plus, Pedoodles® warrants shoes against defects in materials and workmanship, for the original owner, for six (6) months from the original purchase date.
The Eco-friendly line is available in many different girls and boy styles from sizes 8 months to 4 years on Pedoodles.com for $36.
What a stylish way to walk sweetly on Mother Earth!
