The Shoe That Grows

Description

A pair of black The Shoe That Grows sandals/shoes in size xsmall. These shoes are designed to expand 5 sizes and last multiple years, reducing the need to buy multiple pairs of shoes for growing children. Each shoe can be adjusted in seven different locations. At the front of the shoe there is a metal s-hook that can be fit into one of four loops along the upper expanding and contacting the sole of the shoe as needed. Along the upper there is two velcro straps on either side and one strap at the top of the upper to adjust the width and height of the shoe. Finally there is an additional velcro strap at the back of the shoe that can be loosened or tightened the adjust both the width and length of the shoe. The shoes are designed with easy to clean and durable materials so that they last until they are eventually grown out of. This particular size of shoe is meant to range in size from EUR 21-25. In 2018 this shoe design won The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office Patents for Humanity Award.
