The first snow is a holiday for children. Be Lenka kids’ barefoot snow boots make sure it stays that way until evening. The warming lining holds the heat, the waterproof construction stops snow and slush alike, and through it all the foot keeps the freedom that means the snowball fight never ends early.
Which barefoot snow boots do we recommend for children’s winter fun?
For sledging, building snowmen and the mountains, choose snow boots with a higher cut that keeps snow from getting inside, and with a warming lining for long stays outdoors. A sole with a pronounced tread matters too, gripping on trampled snow and icy pavements alike. Be Lenka kids’ snow boots combine all this with flexibility and low weight, so the child moves naturally in them and doesn’t tire sooner than their enthusiasm.
How to choose snow boots for children?
The first criterion is a size with room for a thick sock, so measure the foot with a winter sock on and stick to the size chart. The second is independent putting-on. Snow boots with a wide opening and simple tightening are something a child slips into alone, even wearing gloves. And the third is weight; heavy boots can spoil even the most beautiful winter day. Light snow boots mean more movement, and more movement means warmer feet.
Snow is the best toy
Children need nothing more for winter happiness than snowdrifts and time. Our job is to make sure that neither soaking nor cold stops them. Be Lenka snow boots are made with the same honesty as the whole collection, from the careful selection of warming materials to testing in real winter conditions. When you know the feet are dry and warm, you can leave the children in the snow until they themselves declare a cocoa break.
Dry feet even after an hour in a snowdrift
Children’s play in the snow is no stroll. It’s kneeling, digging, falls and wading through drifts. The waterproof upper and higher cut of kids’ snow boots reckon with this and keep the inside dry even at full throttle. For ordinary winter days in the city, when snow alternates with pavement, the more universal kids’ winter barefoot boots will serve as well. Save the snow boots for days when it’s truly off into the terrain.
Which socks should children wear in snow boots?
+ -One pair of quality wool or merino socks. Resist the temptation to layer two pairs of socks on the child; they squeeze the toes, worsen circulation and the foot freezes faster. The barefoot cut leaves a thick sock enough room, so the toes stay free and warm even during a long stay outdoors.
How do I know the child isn’t cold in the snow boots?
+ -Small children often don’t say their feet are cold until it’s too late. During a longer stay outdoors, check the toes by touch now and then. Pleasantly warm toes mean everything is fine. Cold ones are the signal for a break in the warmth, a change into dry socks and hot tea.
Are kids’ snow boots suitable for ordinary city wear too?
+ -They handle it without trouble; the sole tread grips on the city pavement as well. At temperatures above zero and indoors, though, the child may get too warm in the warming lining. For ordinary city winters, universal winter footwear is more practical; save the snow boots for frosts, snow and the mountains.
