Vibram Kid’s Speed Remember galloping barefoot through the grass as a kid? Children intuitively desire the barefoot experience and benefit from it through better balance and enhanced sensory perception. Unfortunately, outdoor hazards have forced parents to make their kids wear conventional shoes, casting their feet at a young age. Thanks to forward minded parents, Vibram now offers a barefoot experience for kids. The Kid’s Speed line from Vibram makes all the benefits of barefoot shoes adults enjoy available to children. Based on the popular KSO this shoe features a thin abrasion-resistant stretch nylon upper, a hook and loop closure, and of course Vibram’s revolutionary non-marking, razor siped TC1 performance rubber sole. May be machine washed and hung to dry.
