Ground Feel
The ZiuZiu 2.0 offers very high groundfeel and flexibility.
The materials and design are soft and flexible for a next-to-barefoot experience, plus their quality allows for durability too.
Your kid will be able to feel the ground and use their feet almost as if they were barefoot in these winter boots, while staying protected from the elements.
Most kids take to barefoot style shoes easily, but we recommend supervision for the first couple of wears to ensure they can move with ease and comfort. We're happy to help if you have any questions.
Care
Leather boots are enhanced by regular maintenance. You can use your preferred leather care products to clean off road salt and condition the leather. Store away from heat sources.
Best Uses
