The Gaia Preschool is an ultra-flexible Velcro slip-on, designed to introduce kids to bare footwear. KIDS URBAN PLAY OUTSOLEGrip meets flexibility for kids who are finding their balance. 2mm Vivos are designed with thin soles to help reconnect you with the ground, and provide flexibility for strong, healthy feet. 2mm Tread depth refers to the thickness of the patterns or "lugs," on the sole. These are purposefully designed to cater to specific surfaces and conditions, providing an ideal combination of traction, grip, and a sense of connection with the ground. The Kids Urban Play Outsole is made from sticky rubber that stands up to playgrounds and concrete jungles. With a 2mm base and 2mm lugs, the hexagon design gives kids a firm grip, as well as the freedom to move naturally. Designed for ultimate flexibility, toe protection and ground feel — just what fast-growing feet need. Walking, running, jumping, dancing. Kids never stop. And why should they? That's exactly what nature intended. NO INSOLENo insole, bringing you even closer to the ground for the full barefoot experience.ANIMAL-FREEMade from materials that are free from animal products.EASY VELCRO FASTENINGMade using water-resistant constructions and non-absorbent materials.HEEL LOOPSTabs on the heels make it easy to pull these Vivos on, and can be used to hang a damp pair to air dry without deforming themWeight Based on an individual shoe (Mens Size 7)WEIGHTBased on a single shoe in Kid's size EU 30 | UK 11.5 | US 12110g The Gaia is for naturally curious minds who have it all ahead of them.
