Adult's Footwear

Hello, my name is Nina and I am a Senior Physiotherapist with over 15 years experience in the NHS and the private sector. I have a particular interest in treating foot and ankle issues and am a member of The Association of Foot & Ankle Physiotherapists here in the UK.

I developed an interest in barefoot shoes in my early 20’s and have been wearing minimalist shoes ever since.

One of the best ways to embrace the holidays is by heading out for a Christmas Day walk—whether you're exploring frosty fields, strolling through town, or taking in the stunning views of the winter landscape. To ensure your feet are ready for any adventure, complete your Christmas look with a cosy pair of barefoot shoes or boots from Happy Little Soles. And when the walk is over, slip into your Christmas pyjamas and enjoy the warmth of our slipper socks and slippers for the perfect holiday season evening.
