This Japanese run company has been in the business for over a century! Tsukihoshi is one of Japan’s oldest and most esteemed footwear companies.  Combining modern & innovative design with centuries-old craftsmanship and artistry, Tsukihoshi makes the world’s best shoes for babies, toddlers and youths. Children’s feet are not simply miniature versions of adult feet, and in order for them to grow into healthy adult feet, they need a multi-functional shoe made specifically for them. Therefore each Tsukihoshi shoe is uniquely designed to help promote the healthy development and growth of a child’s foot.  Unsurpassed in quality and value, Tsukihoshi shoes are fashionable and functional,  That’s a lot of experience and it shows.  These shoes are fun!  They are smart and your kids are going to LOVE them!  My three year old Nicholas loves the sample pair so much he hasn’t put on his beloved Crocs in days!

Folks at Tsukihoshi believe your children’s feet shouldn’t be treated like our feet, they are different and have specific needs.  We need Dr. Shols our kids don’t    The shoe technology focuses on your children’s growing feet and maximum comfort.  I know this is true because the two pair we own are amazingly light!  Each time I pick them up off the floor to put them away I think, man these sneakers are really light!

Balance landing and arch support are two of the four special features of TSUKIHOSHI shoes.  Kids need a lot of support because their feet are still growing and developing so the shoes have a molded cup insole.  They also need more stability in the sole area because they tend to walk on the inside of their arch.  The balance landing technology provides counter box feature to offer stability in the sole area.  Smart shoe!  I told you he loves his TSUKIHOSHI shoes!

TSUKIHOSHI shoes are light and flexible with barefoot like comfort. The latest innovation is the flex joint out sole which allows the shoe to be super flexible to allow for bending and kicking that is prohibited in most shoes.   The design of TSUKIHOSHI shoe is to bring maximum comfort to your child’s shoe wearing experience thus the foot of the shoe is roomy, allowing for plenty of wiggle room for growing toes.

But my favorite three features of these shoes are that they are machine washable!  HUGE!  I literally take Nicholas’ blue pair and scrub them at the sink and let them dry in the dish rack.  The swede pair I use a Clorox wipe to clean the scuffed toe and heel areas.   Best, the sole is antibacterial with a green tea coating!   Now that is fantastic!  Nicholas just doesn’t keep his socks on!  So often times he’s wearing his shoes with no socks..  And these shoes are so conveniently easy to put on and take off with a big Velcro fastener.   I no longer have to dress my pre-schooler’s feet, he feels so independent putting on his own shoes!

 

The kids can ‘trick or treat’ in style this Halloween. They’ll be comfortable and get the support they need for walking. Children may like the shoes more than the candy!  Be sure to checkout the new fall collection!
