Superfit

Superfit makes children's shoes, and it has been at it for a long time. Bernhard Strakosch started a shoemaking business in Austria in 1872, and together with his son Otto he set out to make good, comfortable shoes. The company is still family run, with its head office in Vienna, and it now belongs to the Legero United Group.

The shoes are designed for growing feet, and Superfit develops them with orthopaedists and other experts. Expect good cushioning, ergonomic shapes and flexibility, plus models with adjustable fastenings for wider or more sensitive feet. Some styles come as barefoot shoes, with a thin, flexible sole. Materials include natural textiles and leather tanned with renewable raw materials from Europe.
