We can’t count the times parents have told us how much their children love pediped® shoes and even refuse to wear other footwear. We know kids can feel the difference that healthy footwear makes. From day one, our mantra—comfort, quality and style—has been the same.
pediped® footwear is made with premium grade, non-toxic materials. Foam insoles & cushions provide a comfortable fit, while padded heels absorb shock. Unsurpassed quality and craftsmanship have earned pediped® footwear a loyal following. Premium grade leather, eco-friendly sustainable materials and distinctive styling and remarkable attention to detail have resulted in truly exceptional shoes. With fashion-forward styles to choose from for every walking stage, pediped® strives to give parents the look they want, at a price they can afford, all the while being healthy for children’s feet.
THE BEST FIRST SHOE EVER! IDEAL FOR INFANTS AND CHILDREN LEARNING TO WALK.
pediped Originals®, Grip ‘n’ Go™, and Flex® have been officially recognized by the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) as being beneficial for children’s growing feet. In fact, our shoes were among the first children’s footwear to be awarded the American Podiatric Medical Association Seal of Acceptance for promoting healthy foot development.
The soft, flexible soles of Originals are recommended by pediatricians and podiatrists because they allow children to closely mimic barefoot walking. Originals® are made of the highest quality leather on the market and they also feature a soft foam insert between leather layers. They’re so comfortable, your child will not want to take them off!
THE PERFECT SHOE FOR THE ACTIVE TODDLER TRANSITIONING FROM EARLY WALKING TO A CONFIDENT STRIDE.
Grip ‘n’ Go™ include all the benefits of our Originals® but also have special G2 Technology™, which includes a soft rubber sole, rounded edges that mimic the shape of a child’s foot, heel stability, and a soft toe box to allow toes to grip the floor. Grip ‘n’ Go™ provide active toddlers with the ideal combination of comfort, protection and flexibility. Move into these styles once your child is walking 20 – 30 steps on their own without the help of holding onto mom and dad or objects around the house.
THE ULTIMATE SHOES FOR CONFIDENT WALKERS. FEATURING SOFT, LIGHTWEIGHT RUBBER SOLES FOR EXCELLENT FLEXIBILITY.
Flex® are the perfect choice for your confident walkers who have developed a solid, natural stride. With cushioned arch support and a soft, flexible rubber sole, Flex® ensure comfort and healthy foot development. In addition, the pediped Flex Fit System™ allows you to adjust the fit of your Flex® shoes to prolong wear.
pediped® cares about the health and well being of your child’s growing feet. We have performed extensive research and testing to develop the latest technologies in children’s footwear. From our unique memory foam insoles to our light-weight, water-safe footwear, our innovative features ensure support and comfort for little feet. Take a look below to learn about the different technologies available in many pediped® shoes.
pediped® footwear was founded in 2005 by Angela and Brian Edgeworth. After their first daughter Caroline was born, Angela started to do a lot of thinking about footwear and the kind of shoes that would be best for her child. She wanted a shoe that was comfortable and stylish and that could be worn both indoors and out. Most importantly, she wanted a shoe that was healthy for her daughter’s feet.
After doing a lot of research, Angela discovered that doctors recommended barefoot walking or soft leather sole shoes, but the choices for infants and toddlers were limited. That is when Angela and her husband Brian decided to create the perfect shoe, which would be the “next best thing to bare feet”.
pediped® has become one of the fastest growing children’s footwear brands in the U.S. and offers more than 120 designs spanning EU sizes 18-33. pediped’s three footwear lines include Originals® (soft soled shoes for children ages birth to 2), Grip ‘n’ Go™ (soft rubber soled shoes for children about 9 months to 3 years) and Flex® (rubber soled shoes for children about 1-9 years). pediped® is sold all around the world.
pediped® is committed to serving our customers, our employees, and most of all our community.
