Newborn Trainers
Shoes are a traditional present to give to a family with a newborn, signifying good luck. Those who care about fashion might want to give newborn baby trainers, and these are quite different to shoes for slightly older infants. A newborn baby’s feet are delicate and can’t cope with anything other than gentle fabrics, so newborn baby trainers don’t use the type of leather, canvas or man-made materials we’re used to seeing for other sports shoes.

Newborn baby trainers are designed to give the look of sports shoes, but they’re made from soft, natural cloth material. They might have a non-slip suede or rubber sole, but newborn baby trainers can also be all cloth as there will be no need to stand on them. The top of newborn baby trainers is usually made of 100% cotton, as natural fibres are unlikely to cause irritation and also let air pass to the feet.
To make newborn baby trainers easy to slip on and off they don’t have laces or fastenings. Instead newborn baby trainers have an elasticated heel which lets you pull them on and off like socks. This does mean that it can be easy to lose newborn baby trainers while you’re out, as they mustn’t be too tight and can fall off from a buggy or a sling.
To make them look like newborn baby trainers the designers usually make them in one colour, and this could be blue for a boy and pink for a girl or other neutral shades, and then they sew on white stripes of cotton to create a typical sports shoe look. Newborn baby trainers are available in size 0 and also in slightly larger sizes to take children through their first year until they start walking. Unlike other shoes, newborn baby trainers may have a different type of sizing and are likely to give the age of the child rather than the official measurements.
You may wonder why parents would buy newborn baby trainers when infants are too young to need shoes. In fact newborn baby trainers are a particularly useful part of the baby’s wardrobe. The baby can be comfortable at home with bare feet or socks and you can slip on the newborn baby trainers to take the baby out. Newborn baby trainers make the baby look more dressed for the outside when compared to socks, which would be the alternative.
Newborn baby trainers are also warmer than socks in cold weather, and come in light material for summer. You will find that your baby loves to play with their feet and their newborn baby trainers as soon as their hands get more capable, so do watch out to check they don’t throw them away while you’re out. It’s a favourite pastime!
