Description

The Original Mesh Kids are the perfect barefoot shoes for active children. The child-friendly interpretation of a classic sneaker provides maximum barefoot feeling and allows little feet to move naturally. Our kids barefoot shoes come with a foot-shaped toe box, are comfortably padded around the heel, and feature a flexible, zero-drop sole and lightweight design. The easy-to-use straps with hook-and-loop fasteners and the finger loop at the back make putting on these minimalist shoes a breeze. They’re made from breathable, recycled mesh and other vegan, child-safe, non-toxic materials. The new rubber sole with its extra outsole stitching, and the protective applications in the toe and heel area provide improved durability. We cover a wide range of sizes, from toddler barefoot shoes to barefoot shoes for older kids. The Original Mesh Kids are unisex.

This model is also available as an adult version with laces. Discover our Original Mesh in sizes EU 35 to EU 49 / US W5 to US M15 / UK W3 to M14.

Care Instructions

To clean your Original Mesh Kids remove loose dirt with a dry, soft shoe brush. If necessary, go in with a clean, soft brush to apply some lukewarm water and a mild cleaning solution. Wipe any excess product with a moist cloth. Air dry at room temperature after cleaning or when the shoes get wet.

To remove more stubborn stains, you can also put your shoes in the washing machine. It’s important to only wash them with cold water on a short, gentle program. Please use a mild detergent and a mesh laundry bag. After washing, soak up excess moisture with a cloth if necessary. Let the shoes air dry. Please be aware that machine washing can put a strain on colors and materials. So only wash your shoes as often as absolutely necessary.

Note: We don’t recommend using the shoes for activities that cause high friction on the shoe (e.g. riding a balance bike or toy car) without additional protection to prevent damaging the shoes.

Good shoes, but velcro's lasted less than 3 months

We had ordered these shoes for our 4 yr old, as they come with wide toe box, and look good. The biggest downside has been the velcro which approximately 40 days of use. The loop side (the fuzzy part) of the velcro is mostly torn open and doesn't stick anymore. None of the other brand shoes that we have ever owned for our kid have ever experienced this issue, most have been given away as hand me down after our child outgrew them. Velcro issue certainly needs to be addressed. I wouldn't recommend them based on our experience.

Dear Manish,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

We’re very sorry to hear that you're having problems with the velcros of your kids' Feelgrounds.

That the fuzzy part of the hook-and-loop fastener stops working, is definitely not something that is supposed to happen.
We would like to apologize for the inconvenience this has caused for you.

So far, this seems to be an isolated case, but we have already forwarded your pictures to our production team. They will keep an eye on this issue and address it for further productions should more cases like yours occur.

Thank you for having simultaneously reached out to us via email to give us the chance to make this right for you. We're glad that we were able to find a suitable solution.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask and again, our sincere apologies.

Best regards,
Janina

Velcro straps needs to be a bit longer

I found these shoes excellent when it comes to the wide toe box, flexibility and they also look great! The downside is that i can barely close the velcro straps, my toddler has chunky feet aka. high instep. I ordered size 25 and i wonder if bigger sizes have longer straps?? I'd like to suggest to make the straps at least 1cm longer and or sell straps extension with them as an option please🙏. I can't say yet if they're durable enough, my kid 's been only wearing them for a few weeks but i can see some tread loosening already some places. Please make improvements to these shoes, I'd love to purchase more in the future. Thank you!

Dear Anita,

Thank you very much for your review. We're glad to hear that you like our Original Mesh Kids shoes.

The more we're sorry to hear that the shoes don't fit your child perfectly. The length of the Velcro straps is adjusted according to the size, and they are slightly longer in bigger sizes. Although, we understand that in some cases, e.g. a high instep, they may still be too short. If you would like to know the exact measurements of the Velcro straps, please reach out to our customer service via feelgreounds.com/contact, and we will be more than happy to assist you with the precise dimensions.

We do our best to design our shoes to fit as many different foot shapes as possible. Unfortunately, it's not always possible to create the perfect shoe for every foot shape. However, we will definitely pass on your request for longer Velcro closures to our product department.

Regarding your concern about the threads coming loose on the shoes after just a few weeks of wear, we kindly request you to contact us. Please provide us with some photos of the affected areas, and we will investigate the matter further and get back to you.

Thank you once again for your feedback and suggestions for improving our shoes. We appreciate customers like you who help us in our ongoing efforts to enhance our products. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're always here to assist you and find solutions.

Kind regards,
Sabine
