Children's shoes - snow boots

Nowadays, a very popular and practical kind of footwear for children, which mothers with pleasure get, are snowboats. These are the combined boots (boots) consisting of:

• dense galoshka (made from a material that does not allow moisture to pass: thermoresin or ethylene vinyl acetate);
• soft top (from the fabric processed by special moisture protective impregnation);
• insulated inner boot (fur or fleece), which is either sewn to the boot, or removable.

And such a kit is able to preventingress of water or snow inside the snowboots, keeping the child’s feet under reliable protection and warm (up to temperatures below -10 degrees). Literally, "snowboots" are translated as "snow bots." But if we consider this kind of footwear from the point of view of the manufacturer "Nordman", then it is intended not only for snow, but also for dirt, water and slush. Since the quality of manufacturing techniques and materials used here is at a high level.

Snowboots are warm enough to protect.feet of the baby from cold in small frosts, as well as from water and dirt, in which children like to mess around in the offseason. The only caveat: it is recommended not to go into very deep puddles (above the level of the galoshes), since moisture can get through the "galosh-cloth" joint.

Varieties and descriptions of Nordman snowbags

Let us consider in more detail all the varieties of this shoe from the Russian manufacturer. Snowboots come in 2 basic types:

1. with galashes of thermoplastic elastomer (TEC);
2. with ethylene vinyl acetate galoshes (EVA).

The first type includes subspecies:Little One (for babies, sizes - from 22 to 31), Junior (for older children, sizes 30-35). The second type includes subspecies: Avis, Joy (these models are of all sizes - for children of all ages). By the way, basically all models of each subspecies are suitable for girls and boys. The Nordman snowboots are issued for girls in pink, red and lilac tones, and for boys in brown, black, gray, blue and blue.

Rubber snow boots TEP

• The material thermoplastic elastomer is, in fact,Thermal rubber, that is, rubber, which retains heat and is resistant to frosty weather, as well as to the aquatic environment, slush. It is from this material made snowshoes galoshes.
• The upper part is made of water-repellent fabric (looks a bit like a “rain cover”). Inside - insulation (removable or sewn) of fur or fleece.

Learn more about the Little One and Junior subspecies:

• Little One made with Velcroor lightning. If the velcro snow boots are able to fasten the shoes as tightly as possible along the leg of the child. And if the zipper is in the form of a zipper, then the shoes will be more free to sit (this allows you to fill the trousers inside). These snow boots for children are demi-season shoes, especially for those who have little movement during their walks, because the galosh is made of rubber. Therefore, it is important for parents of very young children to monitor how the baby’s feet feel in this shoe at a temperature slightly below 0 ° C. If the child is older or very mobile, then such snowboots can be worn at -5 ° C (and even slightly below this figure).

There is another important point that concernsthis type of shoe. Due to the fact that only the galoshes are made of thermal rubber (its height is small), and the upper part of the shoe is a material that can leak moisture (especially at the joint), it is not recommended to walk in TEP snowboats in deep pools or rubber boots, but more on this information below).

• Junior are designed for older children.In such models, the area of ​​the sole of the fur shoe, which is in contact with the inside, has a foil layer. Thus, the effect of "thermos". And because such shoes are warmer than those made for kids (Little One). In this series there are also several models of dutik. At temperatures above 0 ° C in this shoe, the child’s feet are likely to sweat. Therefore, it is recommended to wear shoes with a minus. If the child is very active on the street, then you can wear such shoes at temperatures below -10 ° C.

The peculiarity of these products for children, whichdepends on the manufacturability of the model, lies in the fact that condensate can act on the sole of the inner fur tab. Legs remain dry. Indeed, in Nordman's snowboots, Canadian technology is used to sew an inner shoe. In general, the models are reliable, warm, high-quality.

EVA Snowboots

This species looks a bit likeTEP-shoes. However, the galoshes here are made of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). Reviews of the Nordman children’s snowboots (EVA varieties) from parents who have already purchased and tested shoes made of this material with children claim that it is more slippery (compared to TEP), but by weight it’s much lighter and in sensations of the child’s feet - warmer And this is without an inner boot.

• Snowboots of this species consist of galoshes.The peculiarity of the EVA material is that it almost does not conduct heat. Even if in such shoes to go into a puddle with ice water, the material will not let it feel. Legs still keep warm.
• Soft top is made from the outside of the water-repellent fabric taslan, and inside it is duplicated by foam rubber and fur. There is a thermal insole. A fastener - a flypaper or a lightning.
• Very light in weight.

Consider the snowboots of the Avis and Joy subspecies:

• Avis - quite an early model, whichtested many parents with children, making sure of its high quality and heat resistance. Great for long walks (1.5-2 hours) at temperatures from -5 to 7 ° C and even at -12 ° C and below. If the child is inactive on the street in the cold, the legs will still be warm and dry. All this is possible due to the low thermal conductivity of the EVA material, the thick sole and the rather wide wall of the boots, as well as the warm fur of the inner boot (albeit artificial).

Parent reviews about children's snowbootsThe "Nordman" from the EVA material of this type is as follows: they are easily worn, sit perfectly on the child’s leg, allowing a lot of movement and eliminating stiffness, are quickly put on and removed even by a two-year-old baby. This model is quite affordable. And since snowboots are inexpensive and have a number of advantages, they should be purchased.

• Joy is a new model that is on the shoe marketpresent only about a year. Although she proved herself in a wonderful way. Such shoes are designed more for demi-season use in rain and slush at an average temperature of -5 ° C (for less active children) and up to -10 ° C (for active). Snowboats that are very elegant in appearance have a slightly modified sole and a higher rise. By weight they are light and inconspicuous with the active movement of the child during a walk. Despite this, the shoes are simple and comfortable to put on and take off. Clasp - Velcro and zipper. The color scheme is designed for both girls and boys.

Boots "Nordman Kids" from EVA

Along with great shoes for the off season andwinters (with snow boots) there is also a manufacturer of children's boots from EVA. They are intended for periods when it becomes cold in simple rubber boots (the temperature is around 0 ° C and below), and the weather is wet and slushy. In such cases come to the aid boots "Nordman Kids" or "Sun". The material of which this shoe is made is the same ethylene vinyl acetate. Only now the whole boot is made of it - a galosh and a top.

In fact, these are the same rubber boots, only fromwarmer material. After all, EVA has a porous structure, which means that the shoes retain heat well and are very light in weight. In the inner part - fur or fleece, which are either sewn or removable. With a fur liner boots can be worn at -17 ° C, and with fleece - up to -10 ° C. This shoe is especially suited for hyperactive children who like to run through puddles.

Incorrect socks are a common cause of cold feet. Almost every second mother knows that the best fabric for clothes, including socks, is natural, such as cotton.

In this case, colds are provided.

• If a child is passively behaving on the street, thenthe best option would be woolen products. It can be children's thermosocks. They are worn only on the naked body, keeping the legs warm. The fabric of the socks is comfortable in contact with the body, does not prick. Socks made of wool do not hamper the mobility of the child's legs.
• If the baby is active on the street, then he is betterThermosocks with a high percentage of synthetics (acrylic, polyester and other components) are suitable, since this material helps to remove moisture when it appears.

• If the baby's activity is average, it is recommended to look at the weather conditions and shoes of the child.
