Make sure the kids put their best foot forward! We have a beautiful bunch of children’s shoes up for grabs from our gorgeous friends at PaperKrane!

PaperKrane is a ‘fun’ Australian footwear brand ‘Bringing Street to Bare Feet’. It is run by two Aussie mums (Zara and Kate) who are on a mission to put the FUN in FUNctional through their men’s, women’s and children’s shoes, which are designed to be healthy and optimal for feet while bridging the gap between fashion and function.

PaperKrane shoes are a barefoot style and contain the aptly named ‘Four F’s’ – meaning they are FLAT (ideal for improving overall function, posture and natural gait), FEATHER LIGHT (providing minimal interference with the foot’s natural movement), FOOT SHAPED (allows toes to splay and improves natural stability) and FLEXIBLE (improves mobility and strength). But best of all, PaperKrane shoes are fashionable and bring the FUN to FUNctional footwear!

Wearing barefoot shoes:

1. Increases sensory information to the brain: PaperKrane shoes are thin and light and whilst protecting your feet from the elements, provide minimal interference with foot sensors that send ‘optimal movement information’ to the brain.

2. Improves stability: PaperKrane shoes are foot shaped and thus wider, particularly at the toe box. This allows your feet to splay to their natural width, thus improving overall stability.

3. Improves foot strength: PaperKrane shoes are thin and flexible, allowing your feet to bend and flex as nature intended. This helps to build foot strength which in turn leads to better balance and improvement in overall movement.

Every pair of PaperKrane shoes is unique, quirky and fashion forward, but most importantly, PaperKrane shoes are optimal for foot health and development. Feet, especially growing and developing feet, function optimally when there is minimal restriction on natural gait and movement. From bright colours to quirky prints and eye catching designs, you can be sure that your kids’ feet will be decked out year round.

Our competition winners will get the chance to choose a pair of PaperKrane shoes for their child, up to the value of $139. Make sure you enter now!
