To face the cold outside, bundle them up and keep head and feet warm! Did you know that putting on a hat can really keep their little bodies warm? We lose more heat through our head, and if our body temperature is warm enough and not feeling threatened, our body will continue to pump warm blood down to our extremities.
Children have of course a much more fragile body than adults and their metabolic rate is quicker. This means, they will often feel warmer than they actually are and get very cold significantly quicker than adults.
Being warm is very important for your kids as we don’t want them to get cold and be sick. But did you know that in order to grow well, they need to be warm? When children are cold and in order to keep warm, their body will use the energy taken from food instead of using it to grow!
So starting with having the right winter boots and shoes, thermal insoles, socks and tights is a good step to keep your little ones in good health.
Our thermal wool insoles are made of compressed wool for comfort, warmth and breathability. They also insulate from the cold through the thin layer of aluminium at the bottom.
Our socks and tights are made of high-quality cotton with a little elastane to keep the shape. Our cotton tights and socks can be worn throughout the year as cotton guarantees the breathability of children's feet, hence preventing sweaty feet!
Our shoes are all made with 100% leather. Although you wouldn’t necessarily think leather is ideal in winter, it actually is. We also offer fabulous weatherproofing leather sprays that additionally protect leather from water.
Check out our collection of leather boots from Menthe et Grenadine which are sturdy and warm and will keep your children warm into Spring.
Don’t forget that little feet grow fast! We recommend you measure your child´s feet before ordering if you haven’t done so recently. At Menthe et Grenadine we trained at the Society of Shoes Fitters, which focuses on foot health.
