Children's footwear: For little achievements and big adventures
First steps, the first time riding a bike, the first day at school – we experience many firsts in our children's shoes. They’re there when we celebrate little victories or dive into big adventures, and often parents keep them forever as cherished mementos. Since children's feet are constantly growing and developing, quality is the top priority when it comes to kids' shoes. A shape that provides both support and freedom of movement, a flexible sole, and soft materials are all essential features that every children's shoe should have. Add fun colours and playful designs to the mix, and both kids and parents will be smitten with these adorable companions. At DEICHMANN’s online shop, you’ll find a wide variety of children's shoes for boys and girls from popular brands like elefanten, Bobbi-Shoes, and Cupcake Couture. Thanks to our detailed filtering options, you’ll quickly discover the perfect model to fit your child’s feet.
Practical and trendy children's shoes
As young children's coordination is still developing, their shoes need to withstand a lot. Crawling scuffs the top of the shoes against the ground, while walking and falling puts heavy wear on the soles. A good children’s shoe is designed to handle any adventure. The branded shoes in our online shop are made from high-quality materials such as leather and textile, making them extremely durable. First walker shoes for the very young come with soft, non-slip soles and relatively high shafts to prevent the ankle from twisting. Thanks to practical Velcro fastenings, your child can put them on and take them off independently in no time. Shoes for slightly older boys and girls are just as functional and feature trendy details. Girls’ ankle boots, for example, can have a small heel, while boys’ trainers stand out with cool designs and stylish colours – just like mum and dad's.
Winter shoes for kids: Lined boots and cosy plush slippers
To make sure your child can play freely in winter, they need shoes that provide warmth and stability. Children’s winter shoes should be lined, water-repellent, slip-resistant and breathable. For girls, our winter collection includes stylish winter boots, fluffy plush slippers, and trendy lace-up boots with bold soles. Decorative elements such as faux fur trim, pompoms or snowflake motifs add a playful touch. Winter shoes for boys tend to have a more rugged design, featuring strong colours and motifs rather than decorative extras. However, since we now live in a time where gender boundaries are increasingly fluid, the look of children's shoes should be approached with openness: boys can wear pink, girls can wear blue. Let your children help decide which pair they like best.
Children’s summer shoes: Trendy clogs and colourful slides
To ensure summer shoes for kids provide sufficient support despite their open design, they often come with sturdy straps, toe posts or a cap over the front of the foot. A very popular summer shoe for kids is the closed-toe clog, which protects their feet perfectly. There are glittery models with decorative stones in pinks, pastels and soft shades, as well as simpler versions in blue, green and red. Open sandals, slides and flip-flops are also popular summer choices, available in our online shop in various styles, colours and fun motifs. For trendy outfit ideas, check out our Shoelove blog. Why not browse it together with your son or daughter and get inspired by the loveliest shoe fashion for kids and adults alike?
Buying children’s shoes online and cleaning them properly
Watching your child play, it’s often a surprise that their shoes survive even the first week. To ensure they last many more, proper care from the beginning is essential. Synthetic models should be treated with a special waterproofing spray before the first wear and cleaned regularly with foam products. A colour cream can also be used to refresh their appearance. Leather shoes should be waterproofed before first use and then again every two weeks during winter. To keep the leather in good condition, treat the shoes regularly with an appropriate cream or spray. You’ll find a selection of high-quality care products in our online shop.
