This month, much of our content has reflected September's transitional feel. It's a month that marks the end of a glorious summer, and the beginning of autumn. It brings the start of a new school year, or a whole new way of life if you have little ones just embarking on their school journey.
It's not just been about school life! Our warehouse team has been busy stacking the shelves with cosy autumn/winter footwear in styles you've been looking forward to
Looking Beyond the Labels
What Really Matters When Choosing Children's Shoes
One of the topics we explored this month was what really matters when choosing children's shoes. With so many claims about support, cushioning and specialist features, choosing the best footwear for your child can feel daunting. We stripped things back to the fundamentals, looking at the importance of fit and foot shape and what is meant when you hear the term 'barefoot shoes'
Getting Ready for Autumn and Winter
Barefoot Adult Boots | Stylish Barefoot Boots for Adults
You've packed away the shoes you wore all summer, and now it's time to look at something a little more cosy and weatherproof.
This month, we have shared advice on doing a simple autumn footwear check. From assessing fit and condition to refreshing weatherproofing and thinking about winter accessories, we showed you how a few minutes of preparation can save a lot of discomfort (and money!) later in the season.
Foot Health Through Every Stage of Life
Movement & Wellbeing | Barefoot Foot Health Advice
While barefoot footwear is still a big part of what we do, September also gave us a chance to look at movement and foot health more broadly.
Our blog on fitness and ageing explored how our relationship with our feet changes throughout our life and why maintaining strength, mobility, and staying active remains important at every age.
It's a reminder that healthy feet aren't just a childhood topic. The habits we build and the footwear choices we make can continue to support us throughout our lives.
Small Conversations, Big Questions
Alongside our blogs, we also continued to share shorter pieces on our social channels. These bite-sized posts often start with questions from customers but frequently lead to some of our most valuable conversations.
