The X3CE016 K-shield Protective Shoes are designed for toddlers and help them develop proper gaits. The shoes not only provide excellent walking protection

but also have good anti-bacterial properties for the feet health of toddlers.

Distinguishing itself from traditional toddler shoes, X3CE016 K-shield Protective Shoes have enhanced security properties. Its unique "K shield" in the heel area forms a supportive structure resembling the letter "K" surrounding the ankles, heels, and shoes, effectively safeguarding and stabilizing the ankles to prevent falls caused by balance issues. The heel area also incorporates specialized materials for ankle stabilization, providing doubled support and protection for ankles. And its fully-wrapped shoe design can offer children's toes protection against kicks or collisions, further lowering the risk of injuries as they navigate the process of learning to walk.

X3CE016 K-shield Protective Shoes chooses easy-to-clean microfiber material for the shoe upper, as opposed to traditional animal leather. Not only does this material surpass animal leather in terms of resistance to abrasion, cold, aging, and breathability, while being free of toxic and eco-friendly for users. To further enhance comfort for the wearer, the shoes are lined with tencel, a lightweight fabric composed of natural ultra-fine plant fibers, for a soft and comfortable wearing feel. Plus, it has antimicrobial properties to prevent the growth of bacteria on the feet.
