The footwear brand SKEANIE, which is renowned for its stylish and healthy shoes for children, launched its autumn/winter 2012 collection at Moda this February, with a range of new colours, styles and designs on display.
There are a number of seasonal additions to the line, including the funky riding boot and the stylish winter boot as well as a number of new colour variations of other timeless styles. All of the new pieces in the SKEANIE junior range include the acclaimed and innovative flexible rubber sole, designed to enable small feet to grow and move naturally. The infant collection is also designed with practicality and comfort in mind, thanks to the suede sole and elasticated collars.
Founded in 2007 by Natasha Barber, SKEANIE's philosophy is based around her own soft-soled shoe research which was conducted following the birth of her first child. After her second child was born, the company was launched. Its infant range is suited to pre-walkers and early-walkers, consisting of Mary Janes, Sporty Sneakers and Snugs. The junior collection features SKEANIE's innovative rubber sole that provides flexibility for youngsters as they are walking, running and exploring.
The company's clever approach to children's footwear has already earned it great success in Australia, where it was named the preferred provider of the Australian Podiatry Association. Health is a priority in all of SKEANIE's designs and they each feature a wide toe section to provide additional room for movement when a child walks. The shoes are made from ultra-soft buttery leather that enables feet to breathe. Style is also paramount to the label, so fashion-forward designs are the ideal way to kick off a trendy autumn wardrobe.
Children's podiatrist expert Tracy Byrne, who recently joined SKEANIE as a consultant, says: “As well as providing room for natural growth, SKEANIE's soft-soled shoes allow sensory feedback from the ground, which is especially important for little ones learning to walk and getting to know their surroundings. Research shows that youngsters who wear flat, soft-soled shoes have improved proprioception, balance and foot and ankle strength.”
Brand Manager Mel Hearn says: “The great thing is we take orders for all our products at any time, so it's never too soon to start planning your stock for later in the year. SKEANIE's beautiful riding shoes are all made from the softest leather to protect small feet and make sure children are comfortable all year round.”
