Frequency

Children’s feet are still growing, so it’s normal for them to be flat. Forcing them to use an arch support could cause foot deformities and back pain over time. It’s best for children’s feet to grow and strengthen on their own. That’s why the insoles of our kids’ shoes have no arch support.

The drop is the height difference between the front and back of the shoe. Scientific studies conducted by our research lab (the SportsLab) have shown that a zero drop allows for a more natural stride, similar to running barefoot. This natural stride allows for better absorption of shock waves and strengthens your kid’s muscles and tendons in the long term.

What are zero drop shoes?

To encourage a natural stride that’s as close as possible to running barefoot, the Flex Run shoe is based on 3 criteria:
- A zero drop, so that the midsole hits the ground first instead of the heel.
- A light weight for a more fluid stride.
- A flexible design that easily bends at the midfoot when pushing off.
The result: the energy you get upon contact with the floor is transferred to muscles at the back of the leg, which absorb vibrations better.

What about the natural stride?

For these shoes, our team focused on the needs of budding athletes and their parents’ feedback:
- Rubber skid pads on the toe and heel of the sole for better grip
- Rip-tabs so that your child can put them on and take them off by themselves
- A strap inside the liner to ensure your child’s feet are effectively supported
- Reinforcements at the front, back and sides of the upper for better support and protection

Designed for kids, with their parents’ feedback

...a light, accessible, and stylish shoe.
A team of 15 people, with feedback from you, collaborated closely with SportsLab to create an affordable shoe, adapted to the natural stride of kids who are discovering sports.
The result: A beautiful shoe, which tells a story with enormous meaning, in line with the values of athletes.”

Our design team is proud to present:

We started from the principle that the body is naturally well made and has everything a person needs to run. It’s as children, when we’re first discovering sports, that we develop our natural stride. That’s why we wanted to create this shoe.

The message is not to fight nature and relearn how to run, because running comes naturally. When kids start athletics, these shoes will support them and their movement.

Carole, product manager, and Maxime, SportsLab engineer, describe the Athletics Easy shoe and the natural stride

Kids’ shoes are specially designed to meet the needs of our kids’ feet. Even in the same shoe size, children’s feet are thinner and take up less space than adults’ feet. Give your little athletes space to grow so they’re not constricted while playing. As an adult, if you were to wear kids’ shoes, they would restrict your movements and affect your whole body!

Intensity

For children ages one and six, feet play an important role in development and growth. Our shoes address the specific needs of children’s feet throughout their development.

Shoes designed for young children’s feet:

From 1 to 2 years (sizes 4 to 7): learning to walk. Feet are flat, round, and chubby: our I Learn shoes are extremely flexible to support children’s natural development.From 3 to 6 years (sizes 8 to 11): mastery of walking, running, and jumping. Feet get stronger and more slender, and the arch begins to form. Our I Move shoes are flexible and support the heel.

Which shoes should you choose for your child?

While children do not need to wear shoes for their feet to develop, shoes are important for protection from the cold, damp, and impacts, both indoors and out. Domyos I Learn shoes give children aged 1 to 2 years the protection they need, while allowing maximum freedom of movement: flexible shoes let their feet develop naturally; the thin, flat, and flexible outsole provides the feeling of walking barefoot.

Children’s feet at ages 1 to 2:

Very easy to check the size: Remove the insole and put it on the ground. Place your child’s foot flat on top of it, with the heel flush with the back of the insole. If their toes fall in the hatched area at the other end, you’ve got the right size! Kids’ feet grow fastest between ages 1 and 3: Check the size guide on our website.

Choosing the right shoe size

We are all born with flat feet. As we begin to walk, the arch gradually develops through the natural development of our foot muscles. This is why children’s shoes do not need to have an arch support when they are still growing (unless otherwise indicated by a healthcare professional).

Arch support or not?

Regular physical activity from a very young age is beneficial for your child’s physical and mental development. Learning healthy habits early on can help limit health problems later in life. Doing a group physical activity also supports your child’s social integration and personal development.

What is Gym 101 for toddlers? 
Designed for children aged 10 months to 6 years, Gym 101 consists of fun gym activities on obstacle courses with equipment specially designed for children.
About Gym 101
Gym 101 helps children develop their motor skills through different exercises and movements. 
It is an introduction to all sports.

The sport

Gym 101 promotes psychomotor development in young children, especially the development of motor skills, coordination, and balance. Balancing on beams, jumping, rolling, and climbing help your child develop autonomy and confidence.

The benefits of the sport

Better traction helps improve balance and movement.

Helps to develop motor skills

Right/left foot marking and wide openings.

Helps to develop autonomy

Ultra-flexible sole moves with their feet.

Non-slip sole and reinforced toe and heel for excellent traction.

Innovative booties approved by a physiotherapist. Ideal for your baby’s first steps and adventures.

Style

Observations of children aged 10 months to 4 years participating in Gym 101 classes with and without shoes showed that wearing Domyos Booties provided advantages in motor skill development over being barefoot. Better traction helps improve balance and coordination and protects feet.

These booties were approved by a physiotherapist.

The benefits of physical activity at a young age:

What are the physical benefits?
- Foster development of basic physical abilities (psychomotor development)
- Support healthy growth
- Foster healthy habits

What are the mental benefits?
- Help build self-confidence
- Facilitate social integration
- Support personal development

Physical and mental benefits:

Domyos booties are for wearing indoors on soft floors. They are meant to be worn without socks for better contact with the ground. The nerves on the bottom of the feet “feel” the floor, helping children find their balance.

Tips for use:

Walking barefoot helps babies recognize tactile sensations. The nerves underfoot help babies learn where to place their weight and stay balanced. Domyos booties are wide and flexible, allowing your baby’s feet to grow and become stronger, unrestricted, while also protecting them from the cold and dangerous surfaces. All our kids’ shoes are specifically designed for kids’ feet.

Benefits:

Your child needs to be comfortable in their clothing, able to take off a layer if needed, and not have to pull up their pants every five minutes! Choose an outfit that is appropriate for the temperature: Soft-knit T-shirt, shorts, or pants and a warm-up jacket or tracksuit. Finally, to avoid slipping, a pair of our booties!

What to wear:

Children grow fast! And their feet grow just as fast: making sure they’re wearing the right size shoes is very important. The wrong size can hinder their movement or hurt their ankles and toes. Shoes that are too big can affect their gait and cause blisters. Between the ages of 1 and 2, children’s feet grow about one shoe size every three to four months. Remember to regularly check their shoe size.

The importance of wearing the right shoe size:

Baby Clothing and Shoes

Kalensole® foam and CS® technology absorb running and jumping shocks.

The Kalensole® foam improves bounce by 25% for propulsion.

Energy return

173 grams in size 3.5! So light you’ll forget you have them on.

The reduced 6-mm drop promotes a natural stride, similar to barefoot running.

Seamless construction at the forefoot for added comfort

Fitting comfort

The rubber half-sole provides better grip on the track and in the gym.

The sole material won’t leave marks on gym floors.

We have designed a pair of lightweight shoes with propulsion in mind. Kids will be able to learn to jump, throw, or run!

Sole Type

The drop of a shoe is the difference in sole height between the forefoot and the heel. The shorter the drop, the more natural the foot movement for running, reducing “biomechanical” action, which can cause injury. The drop of these shoes has been reduced to 6 mm to respect your little one’s natural stride!

What’s drop?

The sole has flex grooves for easier heel-to-toe transition during sports. The hard-wearing rubber half-sole prevents slipping on wet surfaces!

Take a look under the sole!

Junior athletics shoes are specially designed for kids’ feet. A child’s foot is narrower and less voluminous in the shoe compared to an adult’s. Give your growing young athlete space so they don’t feel restricted during sports. If an adult chooses a shoe designed for kids, their foot movements are restricted, which has a direct impact on the body!

Did you know? Kids and adult shoes don’t have the same fit.

Outsole Technology

We perform comparative studies in a thermal laboratory, in light wind conditions (5 km/h). This is how we measure the thermal resistance of our boots. However, every individual feels the cold differently.Comfort temperature: felt slightly cold; 70% of users felt like their feet were warm enough.
Limit temperature: felt very cold; 10% of users felt like their feet were warm enough.

Are my boots warm enough for winter hikes?

Your boots have a membrane to guarantee waterproofing and breathability. A membrane is a very fine component (5 to 25 micrometres) affixed to the inside of a fabric that prevents water from entering but allows moisture to escape.

How do my boots protect me from outdoor conditions?

Thermal comfort is a balance between warmth and breathability. Too much heat or not enough breathability lets moisture accumulate and cold set in. This membrane is designed with your activities in mind, preventing water infiltration and letting moisture escape.

Breathable boots for optimal thermal comfort.

We made sure that your boots are waterproof by conducting laboratory tests that simulate walking with the boots half-submerged in water. We also conducted field tests to measure wear and aging. We tested 3 levels of waterproofing: 2,000 flexes (approx. 4-km hike), 4,000 flexes (approx. 8-km hike), and 8,000 flexes (approx. 16-km hike). This boot has been tested for up to 2,000 flexes, which is equivalent to a 4-km hike.

Are my boots 100% waterproof?

A boot’s traction depends on tread number and shape. The grip depends on the sole materials and the tread pattern, like car tires. Traction optimizes propulsion, prevents slipping when going uphill, and stabilizes the boot. 
Grip prevents the boot from slipping and skidding on smooth ground or in demanding conditions (rain, snow, and ice).

What is the difference between traction and grip?

Boots with Snow Contact soles provide maximum grip and traction on snow for hiking. The location and height of the studs (3 mm) are inspired by lynx paws; they are spaced strategically for optimal grip when hiking on steep, snowy terrain. The lugs are designed to grip hard snow and evacuate excess water to avoid slipping.

Which type of grip and traction does this boot provide?

The material and tread of Snow Contact soles are specifically designed for optimal grip and traction. Snow Contact soles are more effective on snow than traditional soles. When walking on ice, adding anti-slip grips to your boots is the only way to ensure optimum safety.

What are the advantages of Snow Contact technology?

This product was lab-tested by our engineers to ensure your total satisfaction. We tested the following elements: tear resistance of eyelets and straps, bonding, toxicology, UV resistance, abrasion resistance of outsole and upper components, and accelerated aging.

Will my boots withstand regular use in the long term?

Follow these guidelines for winter activities: Warmth: wear warm socks (ideally with a good percentage of wool).
Breathability: choose socks based on the intensity of the hike and make sure they’re breathable, to minimize moisture accumulation.
Boot height: the height of the sock should correspond to the height of the boot—for more protection, choose higher socks.

The right footwear for hiking in snow

Water repellency is a fabric’s capacity to make water run off its surface without being absorbed. It prevents the fabric from soaking up water, keeping it lightweight, warm, and breathable. Water repellency is achieved by treating the fabric’s exterior. This treatment needs to be reapplied throughout the product’s lifetime. Products for this purpose (spray and liquid) are available in our stores.
