Walk this way to stylish little feet
Winter’s on its way and that means season-appropriate footwear for your kids. We’re here to help
Cold weather, dark nights, less light. Is there anything good about winter? How about hearty soups, bonfire night, and the chance to layer up children in cosy winter clothes, shoes and boots? Happily, John Lewis & Partners have everything you’ll need to kit out your children this season, from wellies in a range of bold shades to sheepskin boots and dazzling shoes for party season. Here’s a round-up of our favourite styles.
These boots are made for walking – and frolicking
The classic Chelsea boot is a versatile all-rounder that works from park to party. We have a wide range of practical but on-trend styles that will please kids as much as parents. Choose from classic Timberland boots, tartan Dr Martens and Just Sheepskin cosy sheepskin boots for wearing around the house when the temperature dips.
Give it some welly
The inclement British weather means a good pair of wellington boots is essential. Happily, wellies seem to be one form of footwear that children really enjoy wearing without protest, no doubt thanks to puddle-jumping potential. This year, as well as stocking durable styles by Hunter and Little Joules, John Lewis & Partners have done the classic kids’ welly in six snappy shades including orange, red and green. Perfect for making a splashy statement.
Festive footwear
Christmas party season is on the horizon and a fine excuse to indulge your child in smart footwear. Get the right pair – a style that delights them but that’s also well-made and comfy – and they’ll do perfectly for winter weddings, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve and beyond.
