Common Tread’s Amber Barefoot Desert Sandal is a barefoot design for warmer months (though they look great paired with socks, too!) It has minimal padding and no slope from heel to toe - ideal for growing, moving feet.
The zero-drop sole is lightweight, flexible and non-slip, allowing for optimal forefoot flexion and movement. Our wide toe box and zero-drop sole are designed to promote natural movement and endless exploration.
Velcro fasteners make our shoes easy to get on and easy to get off, helping to foster independence in little ones.
Sustainably sourced full-grain leather, crafted with stitch-down construction techniques creates a robust and durable design that will stand the test of time and hold up through busy daily activities. Our shoes are designed to last for ages and be handed down to siblings, cousins, and friends.
Easy to keep clean and age beautifully. Available in toddler sizes 5-10.
Our sandals are designed to allow for natural movement, with a bit of room to grow already built in.
Please measure your child's foot before selecting their size to ensure the best fit. If you’re between sizes, we generally recommend choosing the smaller size for a more secure fit.

The absolute best shoes! Bought our first pair in South Africa was 9 months old, 2.5 years later and it's still our choice of shoe for our little guy. So grateful and excited to find them here in the USA since we moved here a year ago. ✨️🌈
These are the cutest, softest leather shoes i have ever seen! The design is so adorable and i love that they ate good for my babies feet.
Sandals feel very minimal and the leather is super soft. I like that the toes are covered to protect them but have cute little holes for ventilation. I think they’ll be our go to dressy and summer shoes. Customer service has been great, super friendly, responsive, and helpful when I needed a smaller size.Definitely recommend
It is so rare to find children's barefoot shoes that are both healthy for development and aesthetically stunning. I first ordered these sandals in a size 6, and even though they were a bit too big for my daughter right now, I loved them so much that I decided to keep them for when she grows. I immediately ordered a second pair in size 5!
The quality of the leather is beautiful, and you can tell they are crafted with care. Even when we encountered a small issue with one of the pairs, the customer service was absolutely incredible. Sarah was so helpful and kind, ensuring we had exactly what we needed.
It is a joy to support a small family business that cares so deeply about its products and its customers. These are officially our favorite summer shoes!
I am so happy I found Common Tread! It is incredibly difficult to find children's barefoot shoes that are not only functional and healthy for growing feet but also look absolutely beautiful. These sandals are exactly what I was looking for.
I also want to highlight their exceptional customer service. I had a small manufacturing defect with one of my orders, and Sarah handled it with so much care and kindness. She went above and beyond to make sure my daughter had a perfect pair to wear. It’s rare to find a brand that truly stands behind its products and cares so much about its customers.
The quality of the leather is lovely, and the design is perfect for little explorers. We will definitely be returning for more as my daughter grows! Highly recommend this wonderful small business.
