Slippers-boots for children

Indoor slippers entered the life of Europeans only in the fifteenth century. And if indoor shoes were of great spiritual importance for the Japanese (the Japanese consider indoor shoes a sign of pure thoughts and respect for the home), then for Europeans such shoes had a purely practical meaning. Previously, in European houses they walked in street shoes, and this became the cause of many diseases, in order to protect themselves from diseases, people began to take off their street shoes, and in order not to freeze on their feet, they put on indoor shoes.

The most popular option for room shoes are slippers, but as children's shoes, slippers are not relevant, because children simply lose them, it is inconvenient to run and jump in them.

In order to make indoor slippers for children comfortable, slippers-boots were invented, which really resemble boots in their shape and are the most comfortable type of indoor shoes for children.

Today, many parents buy or knit slippers for children on their own, because such indoor shoes for children have many advantages:

• perfectly keep on the leg of the child and do not fly off with his active movement;
• this type of home shoes perfectly protects the child from the cold in winter, because children tend to run out into the corridor or onto the balcony, where there may be a cold floor;
• have a very aesthetic appearance on the child's leg;
• can be easily tied by yourself;
• they can be in summer and winter versions: summer slippers-boots have a thin and breathable structure, the leg does not steam in them, and winter options are always very warm and soft, it is very comfortable to walk in them and they perfectly protect the feet from the cold;
• there are without fasteners, with ties, with fasteners, with Velcro. Parents can always choose exactly the kind of shoes that the child can wear on their own.

One of the most popular indoor winter options are fur boots, which are distinguished by their special softness and heat-shielding qualities.

Such home shoes can be divided into two categories, taking into account the features of its tailoring:

1. Slippers made of whole fur, sewn from a fur cut folded in half. These boots have fur both on top and inside, so they are very warm and soft.
2. Another type is characterized by a woven upper and a fur inner lining. Such slippers are convenient if the lining is stitched in the shape of the entire boot; if it is hemmed only from above, then it will get when you rent the room.

Fur boots are made of natural materials and artificial, for children it is better to take only from natural materials, because piece ones can soar the child's leg.

Knitted boots are also popular, as there are several varieties, taking into account the knitting style and seasonality of the options.These boots are winter or summer, depending on the density.

Another feature of these slippers is that they can be knitted independently. The most common options for children's knitted boots are:

• slippers-boots in the form of ugg boots - they have a characteristic rounded toe and the outer side of the lower leg overlap, most often with a clasp, but sometimes with a simply sewn overlapping edge;
• motif boots are indoor slippers sewn from crocheted hexagons. Such indoor shoes perfectly repeat the shape of a child's foot, it is very comfortable to wear;
• openwork slippers-boots are characterized by an openwork form of knitting. Most of these slippers are used as a summer version of home shoes. They are always very beautiful and resemble knitted knee pads, decorated with an exquisite multi-colored pattern;
• 3D children's indoor boots are shoes that are made in the form of animal faces, as well as in various forms of soft toys or fairy-tale characters. Such slippers are considered the most favorite types of indoor children's shoes. Previously, they were made only in the fabric version, but today talented needlewomen perfectly knit such children's shoes with a hook or knitting needles.

Among the different materials for children's slippers, boots, fleece and terry fabric are considered the most practical.

• Fleece is a soft and warm fabric that wears well and does not require additional care. Winter indoor boots for children are sewn from such material, they are very easy to care for, they are washed in a washing machine, do not wrinkle and are very pleasant to the touch.
• Terry cloth they are used both for sewing winter slippers-boots, folding the fabric in half, and for sewing summer models of home shoes for children. Terry cloth, like fleece, is very easy to care for, in addition, it is light and soft. A feature of such shoes is that they always have a filler. Most often, a synthetic winterizer is used for insulation.

Boots made of these two types of material are attached to the child's leg with a tie, because they are soft, so such slippers are rarely elastic.

Many people are accustomed to believing that children's room shoes are significantly superior in quality and comfort to men's and women's shoes. But, as for slippers, boots, here the only difference can be considered only the size, because all boots for adults repeat the shape of children.

There are no differences in the materials from which such shoes are made, because both children's and adult slippers can be made from natural or synthetic raw materials.

A few decades ago, 3D boots were considered purely children's home shoes, but nowadays adults also actively use such shoes, because they are very comfortable and original.
