NO! Infants do not need arch supports in their shoes. Why? Infants do not start developing arches until 2-3 years old, so arches in baby shoes are not necessary. That is why our Stride rite infant shoes, developed under our S.T.E.P. system has been developed. Infants need soft flexible footwear with properly placed support pads to assist them in developing the proper walking gait. This will reduce over time the probability that stress will develop in your child's ankles, knees, back and hip that will possibly result in injuries in your child's 20's or 40's, if not sooner.
