Finnish children's boots

Modern parents are no longer enough to buy a freak for the winter warm boots. I want the shoes to be stylish, bright, multi-functional, and at the same time light and warm. Finnish children's boots combine all these qualities.

Perhaps the most recognizable brand of winter footwear for children is Kuoma. For a pair of these boots moms hunt for summer sales, and after the winter, many successfully sell them to their second owners. The ardent fans of the brand believe that it is better to buy a pair of these Finnish boots that were in use, rather than take a new, but different brand for the same price. Kuoma "does" almost half of its annual turnover on the Russian market!

Kuoma winter boots are not sewn at a factory in China, but exclusively in Finland. They are called “felt boots” because they are not membrane boots, as many believe, but simply warm shoes, which warm the foot due to the special properties. The main advantages of Kuoma:

• ease;
• moisture resistant impregnation;
• cast sole and heel that just will not come off and will not tear off;
• fabric with dirt-resistant properties, which allows to wash the boots in a typewriter;
• non-slip outsole;
• reflective elements.

Inside the Kuoma boots there is a layer of artificial insulation - it is called Teddy for a soft, fleecy surface, similar to the material from which Teddy bears are made. Also inside there is a warmed replaceable insole, which does not move when worn.

The Kuoma lines have colors for boys (black, blue, camouflage) and girls (pink, with floral print), but the variety is small. The most popular models are Tarravarsi and Putkivarsi. The first are distinguished by the fact that they have a Velcro on the toe, which regulates the fit to the leg.

Regular buyers of the brand advised to wear these shoes during active walks - so the materials will keep the heat that is formed during movement. According to many moms, you should not hook wool socks under Kuoma, it is better to use synthetic ones. However, there are those who wear Finnish boots on a knitted “grandmother” sock, and thus escape from freezing. Understand what method is right for you only in practice, because mobility and "frost resistance" for all children is different.

Kuoma boots repel moisture, but are not waterproof - they can get wet as they are worn. Internal insulation, according to reviews, is also not "eternal." Therefore, it is on his condition that one should first of all pay attention when buying such used boots.

A small life hack from Kuoma fans: there is a special tag in the boots so that you can indicate the name of the owner. This will help to find your pair at children's parties, in game rooms. These boots are worn en masse, so leaving home in a strange pair is absolutely real!

Shoes of this brand can be selected in the same way as clothes: the manufacturer writes on the website the degree of insulation (medium or high), water-repellent or waterproof, and other wisdom.

All shoes have a sports or casual design, for girls - hot pink or purple hues, for boys - black, blue, gray. From above, Reima boots and boots are made of textile materials, natural suede, rubber.

Inside the boots of an average degree of heat insulation, “artificial fur” (a heater that is quite thin by Russian standards) and a felt insole. At boots of high degree of warming the pad has natural wool as a part.

Reima brand distinction - taped seams that provide water resistance. A number of models, for example, Halla Toddler has a cast polo.

According to reviews, Reima shoes, like clothes, “work” during active walks and do not withstand extreme cold.

Lassie brand produces winter boots, similar to Reima, however, from cheaper materials. Due to this, the shoes are more affordable.

Find among the Finnish brands children's boots on natural fur (sheepskin on the skin) is almost unreal. Any "natural fur" in these boots is wool, made by a special technology on a textile basis. Insulated with such material snoubutsy have brand Mursu. Mursu boots are in demand due to the relatively low price and bright colors.
