Soft soled (rubber) shoes? Good shoe brands?

[Anumaria]

Are there any brands of solf soled shoes for older toddlers sold in Italy (I mean something with rubber soles, so something like See Kai Run, Preschoolians, etc. in the US.)

What are the brands that are considered good? The more thin and flexible the bottoms, the better!

TIA!

There are lots in Italy. Primigia, Naturina, and Superga come to mind.

Naturina is available all over Europe, and is one of the 'better' (ie more expensive) brands.

I just bought a nice pair of GEOX for my DD (2 yrs 10 mos). Some of the models were too rigid for my taste but I found a pair that are about as flexible as Preschoolians.
Good luck!

Balducci is an Italian classic. My 18 month old loves hers.
