A trusted Melbourne-based brand for over 16 years, Walnut Melbourne prioritises three key considerations when crafting footwear to ensure tiny feet are kept lovingly hugged, which include:
Quality Construction: Ready to withstand the demands of tiny explorers, each shoe needs to balance high-quality materials and meticulous construction techniques to ensure longevity. For Walnut Melbourne, it’s all about confirming customer confidence with reinforced stitching, sturdy soles and durable materials.
Fit: Designed to accommodate growing feet, the shoe’s ‘fit’ is imperative when it comes to kid’s footwear. With a complete range of sizes to choose from and a collection of designs to provide
the very best in comfort and support, the Fleur Harris x Walnut Melbourne collection offers a stylish shoe for every little wanderer.
Fabrication: Little feet need breathable and gentle materials to ensure comfort remains throughout the day. At Walnut Melbourne, soft fabrics are always prioritised (including premium leathers and textiles), to promote healthy foot development. Additionally, Walnut uses eco-friendly and non-toxic materials, to ensure the safety and wellbeing of children.
