Footwear – Kids

Kids’ shoes – for play, rain and changing weather

Children’s shoes need to do more than handle everyday steps. They should feel comfortable, support movement and give the right protection when the weather changes. In Tretorn’s kids’ collection, you will find classic rain boots, lined winter boots and waterproof hybrid shoes for preschool, school, play and outdoor trips.

Rain boots are a practical choice for rain, mud and puddles. Hybrid shoes are useful when children need a more flexible shoe with better protection than a regular everyday shoe. When it gets cold, lined boots or warmer shoes can help keep feet dry and comfortable for longer.

How to choose the right kids’ shoes

Start with the weather, ground conditions and how much the child will move. For heavy rain, wet grass and mud, rain boots are usually the most practical choice. For changing weather, lighter rain and days with a lot of running and playing, hybrid shoes can be better because they feel more like regular shoes.

For colder days, warmth is also important. Lined rain boots or winter boots can be a better choice than unlined boots, especially if the child will be outside for longer.

Frequently asked questions about kids’ shoes

Which children’s shoes are best for rain and mud?
Rain boots are best for heavy rain, mud, wet grass and puddles. Hybrid shoes are a more flexible choice for lighter rain and active play.

When are winter boots better than rain boots?
Winter boots are best when it is cold, snowy or slushy and children need more warmth around the foot. Lined rain boots can be a good option when it is both cold and wet.

What is the benefit of hybrid shoes for children?
Hybrid shoes offer more protection from wet weather than regular sneakers, but are often easier to run and play in than classic rain boots.

How should children’s shoes fit?
Children’s shoes should feel stable without pinching. For rain boots, hybrid shoes and winter boots, it can be useful to leave a little room for thicker socks. If the shoe feels slightly roomy, an extra insole can help improve the fit.
