PODIATRIST DESIGNED
ENZI kids consultant podiatrist has 35 years of experience in assessing and treating foot and lower limb complaints.
Specialist knowledge utilised in our functional footwear designs provide the optimum foundations for your little one’s growing feet.
The collaboration at ENZI kids of style and science, has allowed us to construct a designer shoe within an approved specialised structure designed to promote natural foot development.
SPECIALISED NON-SLIP SOLES SUPPORT NATURAL FOOT DEVELOPMENT
Our signature full-length composite rubber soles are encased in leather, providing protection from sharp objects, and slippery or rough terrain.
The design delivers maximum sensation to the sole of the infant’s foot, providing optimum conditions for the development of infant foot structures, coordination, and balance.
The interaction between the foot and the shoe is most important to us as we do not want to alter the natural development of the juvenile foot. The ideal role of any shoe is to protect your infant and child's foot from injury. ENZI kids understands that it is important to mimic being barefoot, studies show that bare footed children tend to develop a shorter and stronger foot and our aim is to support a healthy natural development.
QUALITY MATERIALS
ENZI kids shoes are constructed from carefully selected high quality materials.
Premium leather linings are hand-picked to cover your infant’s foot in a natural product that allows the skin to breathe and be well insulated.
Our uppers are made from high quality leathers, suedes and handsewn materials.
DESIGNED IN AUSTRALIA
ENZI kids shoes are designed in Australia by our Consultant Podiatrist and Footwear Designer.
Additionally, our designs undergo further assessment by an independent panel of podiatrists before production – at ENZI kids we develop shoes that you can be confident to put your child’s feet in!

THE FACES
BEHIND OUR SOLES
Behind those funky ENZI KIDS soles are a mother and daughter duo, who have combined their diverse range of skills and knowledge to create something magical.
The journey of ENZI KIDS began in 2017 when Gabrielle was searching for aesthetically appealing shoes for her son Enzo, that were also supportive. With flat feet of her own, and a Podiatrist for a mother, supportive footwear had always been of the utmost importance during her childhood and her own family life. Unfortunately the range that fitted her 'brief' tended to be limited and often dated. With an educational background in business and a flare for design, the idea behind ENZI KIDS was born.
So, in 2019 with Claire onboard as the Consultant Podiatrist, the mother and daughter duo started working away at creating a range of infant and children's footwear for the needs of today's families.
Fast forward two years, and in March 2021 we are ready to launch our first range of quality leather and premium fabric infant footwear, for the newest generation of crawlers, pre-walkers and first walkers.
We hope you love our infant 'footwear with a difference', as much as we do!
