BIOMECHANICS MAKES US RESPECTFUL OF THE FOOT, WE ARE:
For more than 25 years, biomechanics has guided us in the creation of our shoes, which respect how children’s feet grow, develop, and move. We design from science—and that’s why we carry it in our name.

ACCORDING TO BIOMECHANICS…
(BAREFOOT OR NOT)
For us, science and the Institute of Biomechanics (IBV) give us the keys to designing suitable, respectful footwear for their feet; because feet need freedom and respect, yes—but also quality, fit, protection, comfort, and durability. And for us, bringing all of this together in our footwear, so your little ones can grow with it, is the most natural thing.

El contrafuerte impide el movimiento natural. Al eliminarlo, quisimos que el calzado Biomecanics no fuese inestable. Por eso, diseñamos un estabilizador exterior, muy flexible y que permite el movimiento libre del niño.
Instituto de Biomecánica (IBV)
La correcta elección del calzado en la etapa infantil debe estar apoyada y sustentada en la presencia de una evidencia científica, más que en tendencias, modas o corrientes.
La horma evolutiva es un diseño único de Biomecanics. Realizamos un estudio con más de 2000 niños. Escaneamos sus pies en 3D y obtuvimos las herramientas para diseñarla.

The heel counter restricts natural movement. By removing it, we wanted Biomecanics footwear to remain stable. That’s why we designed a highly flexible external stabilizer that allows children to move freely.

Choosing the right children’s footwear is key to healthy foot development. Biomecanics allows us to support each stage while respecting natural growth.

Footwear design should support children, not limit them. That’s why we analyze every movement to offer stability without sacrificing freedom.

It is necessary to support the movement of the foot and prevent heel slippage. To eliminate the heel counter, we patented a lateral stabilizer that provides support without rigidity.
This is the height difference between the heel and the front of the shoe. In childhood, the ideal option is flat and flexible footwear, with a drop close to 0 mm.
Feet do not grow in a linear way, either in length or width. Our EVOLUTIVE LAST ensures that the inside of the shoe provides the necessary space at every size.
For the shoe to fit perfectly to the width of each foot, it must feature adjustable fastening systems.
To achieve this, our seams are flattened on the inside to prevent chafing, and the tongues are padded to avoid friction.
Materials must be breathable, and the insole should also be antibacterial. Our ALWAYS DRY insole technology allows it to absorb moisture and dry faster.
To achieve this, our seams are flattened on the inside to prevent chafing, and the tongues are padded to avoid friction.
They protect, cushion, provide stability, and allow free movement with flexibility and lightness.
At Biomecanics, we listen to professionals, specialists, mums and dads to design our footwear. This listening, together with biomechanics, inspires our technology, resulting in an entire collection that respects the natural growth of children’s feet at every stage.

WHEN CHOOSING CHILDREN’S FOOTWEAR
At Biomecanics, we study the feet of thousands of children at different stages and design our evolutive last taking into account that the foot grows not only in length but also in width. For greater comfort, all our seams are flattened and tongues are padded to avoid pressure.
Keep in mind that the allowance should not be much greater to avoid internal foot movement.
· Under 15 months: one size every 4 months.
· 15–24 months: one size every 6 months.
· 24–36 months: one size every 8 months.
Check regularly whether the toes touch the front or if the shoe feels tight. A good tip is to remove the insole to see where the toes leave a mark.
· Pressed or deformed toes.
· Redness or chafing.
· The child asks to “take the shoe off.”
· Unusual walking or dragging feet.
A good trick is to remove the insole and check where the toes leave a mark.
We recommend our Biogateo line, with biomechanical design for this stage combining crawling and first steps: wide toe box, flexible sole, zero drop, lightweight, natural materials, a “U”-shaped notch to avoid pressure on the Achilles tendon, and flattened seams.
That’s why all our models are respectful and healthy for feet and consider key biomechanical principles. Whichever model you choose, you can rest assured that all our footwear is designed and endorsed by the Institute of Biomechanics (IBV) and carries the Podologic seal.
At Biomecanics, we remove the traditional heel counter and replace it with an external lateral stabilizer, maintaining stability without restricting movement. This unique technological innovation was achieved thanks to biomechanical research carried out together with the Institute of Biomechanics (IBV).
