Active fun for little feet
Like the rest of our bodies, our feet will be stronger, fitter and healthier with regular exercise. I'm not talking about just taking them for a walk or a run, but more intentional, targeted exercises to improve the strength and mobility of the muscles in our feet.

I admit I didn’t used to give it much thought either, just accepted this was the way shoes were shaped. Now I know differently. Footwear design has been fashion led, not foot led, for far too long, and our feet have suffered because of it.

Whether big or small, here’s a few tips about how to keep feet healthy through the winter months. Have you ever heard that if your feet get cold, the rest of your body is likely to follow?

Barefoot shoes... what does that even mean?
Have you heard of barefoot shoes? Have you bought them for yourself or your little one? Perhaps you’ve been thinking about it but just not sure whether it’s the right thing for their feet? After all, aren’t shoes needed to support the feet? There is so much conflicting advice available, it’s difficult to decide what’s right!
