Children's Beach Shoes
John Gibb
Parents who take their children to the beach regularly, or who
are planning on taking their children to the beach on a
vacation, should give some thought to beach shoes for their
children. Though any type of shoe can be worn on the beach,
there are shoes that are definitely more comfortable for
children to wear on the sand, plus there are many beach shoes
that have the added benefit of protecting children's feet both
on the sand and in the water. Two popular children's beach shoes
are:
* Wet/Dry shoes - These shoes, commonly known as "Aqua Shoes" or
"Wet Shoes", have become very popular for children in the last
few years. Keeping in mind that parents don't necessarily want
their children to remove their shoes on the beach or while
playing in the water, manufacturers came up with shoes that were
just as effective wet as they were dry. These wet/dry shoes are
made from very light, porous, stretchable material, usually
nylon, that is strong but comfortable. They cover the entire
foot for maximum protection, but are so light that they do not
feel cumbersome to children when they are playing on the sand or
when they are swimming. The soles of these shoes are thick
enough to provide protection for children's delicate feet, but
are not heavy, and the bottoms of the soles have gripping
traction that works whether they are wet or dry, which helps
prevent children from slipping. They are even made to float so
that if they accidentally come off in the water, they are easy
to find. You can also get these types of shoes for children with
Velcro straps, making them much easier to put on and take off. *
Children's beach sandals - Although beach sandals are usually
not made to be worn in the water, they can be very beneficial
for protecting children's feet while they are playing on the
sand. Beach sandals can be made from several different types of
materials, but children's beach sandals are most often made from
soft leather or soft rubber. Children's beach sandals usually
have thick soles, and either two or three small straps across
the top of the foot, with a heel strap, or one wide strap over
the top of the foot and a heel strap to keep the shoe from
slipping off. Children's beach sandals are light so that
children can wear them comfortably, but strong enough to protect
little feet from any sharp objects that may be hiding in the
sand.
The bottom line is that you can make as much of a fashion
statement with your beach shoes as you can with any of the other
items in your wardrobe. If you live near the beach you should be
able to find several shops that sell fashionable beach shoes,
but if you live in an area that is nowhere near the beach, such
as in the Midwest, you can probably find the best beach shoes by
visiting web sites that sell beach clothing or beach shoes in
particular.
