Sissi Rasche | Limited Edition First Walker Shoe
SISSI RASCHE X Lieblinge® Limited Edition First Walker Shoe with Ultra Soft Natural Rubber Sole
Together with our co-founder and midwife Sissi, Lieblinge has designed this cute limited edition. The unique features of these first walker shoes are the ultra-soft sole and the foot-shaped barefoot design. This allows your child to walk almost barefoot while being super stylish.
Whether at home, in daycare, or outdoors in good weather, the first walker shoe offers:
- an ultra-soft, non-slip natural rubber sole
- a foot-shaped design for optimal muscle strengthening
These shoes are suitable for all children making their first attempts to stand up until they can walk independently.
For colder days or as a growth buffer, Lieblinge® additionally offers wool felt insoles, which can be removed later. You can order the wool felt insoles directly in the appropriate size.
WARNING! This model is not suitable for use with children's vehicles (Bobby Car, balance bike, etc.). Due to the softness of the leather for optimal foot development, there is no silicone cover on the front shoe edge to prevent abrasion.
Please note: This product is shipped directly from the manufacturer to you.
CLEANING
If your Lieblinge get dirty or you want to freshen them up, wipe them with a soft, slightly damp cloth. You can also use a mild soapy solution (e.g., an ecological hand soap or a gentle organic soap). Rub gently, especially on two-tone models, moving from a dark area to a light area to avoid discoloration. For heavier dirt, you can use a brush and mild soapy solution. Always test on a less visible area before cleaning and check the result before treating the entire shoe. Lieblinge should not be washed in the washing machine!
CARE PRODUCTS
The best way to keep your Lieblinge soft and durable is by using our high-quality and toxin-free Lieblinge Leather Grease. It is entirely developed and manufactured in Germany according to NCP (Nature Care Product) standards. It uses only natural origin materials, no microplastics, no genetic engineering, no environmentally harmful additives, and no animal testing.
With commercial leather care products, it is almost impossible to find out what ingredients are included because they are not labeled and usually contain petroleum derivatives.
LEATHER CARE:
Simply apply the Lieblinge Leather Grease thinly and rub it in. You can do this with a cotton cloth or just with your fingers. This care is also recommended if you are outdoors a lot and want to protect the shoes from moisture or if your Lieblinge have gotten wet. It's better to apply too much than too little.
IF YOUR LIEBLINGE GET WET…
If your Lieblinge get wet, it’s best to stuff them with paper and let them dry gently. Do not place the Lieblinge on or near a heater to dry. This can cause the leather to dry out, become stiff and brittle, and possibly lead to color changes.
CHROME-FREE NATURAL LEATHER
The ecological, vegetable-tanned leather used for Lieblinge is a natural product and meets the highest ecological standards. It is safe and free from heavy metals. No lacquers, plastics, or similar surface seals are used. This ensures you receive a natural, low-toxin product. The open-pored and highly breathable leather is more sensitive to stains than conventional, industrially manufactured chrome leather. Dyed, chemically untreated, and especially uncoated natural leather can bleed when wet, depending on the color. Keep this in mind, for example, when wearing white socks in the shoes or if the shoes get wet.
Why is the Right Size Important?
Barefoot shoes offer many benefits, such as natural freedom of movement and healthy foot development. To fully enjoy these benefits, the right fit is crucial.
Using the Measuring Kit
The company Lieblinge has developed a simple and effective measuring kit to help you determine the right size from the comfort of your home. Follow these steps:
-
Download and Print the Measuring Kit:
- Choose the appropriate measuring kit for the desired shoe size.
- Print the template at actual size.
-
Follow the Instructions:
- You will find a detailed step-by-step guide on the measuring kit.
- Read the tips and tricks carefully to get accurate measurements.
-
Conduct the Measurement:
- Place your child's foot on the measuring kit.
- Mark the longest point of the foot and read the corresponding size.
- You might need a size smaller or larger after the first check. If so, print the next adjacent size and measure again.
Additional Tips for Sizing
- Measure both feet, as they can be different sizes.
- Measure in the afternoon or evening since feet can swell throughout the day.
- Make sure your child stands straight and does not curl their toes while measuring.

FAQ
Especially with the first child, you often don't know how to categorize their feet. Are they narrow, normal, or wide? During the first fitting, you can usually tell pretty quickly if a shoe fits well or if it's too tight or much too loose.
Always use two fingers to check! Place your index finger under the sole and your thumb on top of the toes to get the best tactile feedback. You can feel the position of the longest toe (usually the big toe). There should always be at least 3-4 mm of space in front of the toe. This is different for conventional shoes with stiff soles and unnatural foot shapes. With Lieblinge, it doesn't need to be more. If the toes are already more than 3-4 mm from the front, it's time for the next size.
Extremely important: The very soft substance of an infant's foot is not yet a "finished" bone, but super soft and therefore malleable. Permanently wearing shoes that are too small will definitely lead to deformities, often resulting in permanent misalignments and possibly shortened tendons. So please follow these guidelines.
To ensure children's feet grow healthily, it's important that your child always wears the right shoe size. If the shoes are too small and pinch the toes, this can lead to deformities or joint problems over time. If they are too big, the feet "swim" in the shoe, and your child may clench their toes to gain enough support. Therefore, finding the right size is crucial, as every foot is unique, especially in its shape.
Quite simply, because we all know that it is difficult to find the right children's shoe size, Lieblinge has designed a super easy children's shoe measuring kit. You can print it out and measure exactly which size is right for the children's shoes you need. You can find the children's shoe measuring kit under Size Advice or at the following link:
If your Lieblinge have gotten dirty or you want to freshen them up, it's best to use the Lieblinge Leather Care Set (consisting of a gentle natural brush, our lanolin leather soap, and our well-known eco leather grease).
For heavier dirt (such as mud or mush), wipe it off with a damp cloth and then remove it with the brush and gentle soap foam. Wipe the leather while it's still damp, let it dry, and then saturate and impregnate it with our ecological leather grease.
Never dry the leather quickly on a heater or similar; always let it dry at room temperature. You can stuff it with newspaper if necessary.
Always test on a less visible area before cleaning and check the result before treating the whole shoe.
Lieblinge should not be washed in the washing machine.
Lieblinge shoes are not pre-treated with waterproofing agents. We use exclusively ecological and toxin-free materials, which prohibits the use of harmful chemicals. Optimal stain and moisture protection is achieved through regular treatment with Lieblinge's ecological leather grease. We strongly advise against using waterproofing sprays. These typically contain ingredients that are extremely harmful to the body, not to mention the environmental impact.
4o
With commercial leather care products, it's nearly impossible to find out what ingredients they contain. There is no declaration requirement for leather care products. Without a list of ingredients, there is no transparency.
This did not convince Lieblinge. They wanted to ensure that you can use Lieblinge leather care with the best conscience for your child and the environment. Lieblinge produces their ecological leather grease according to NCP (Nature Care Product) certification in northern Germany.
The Lieblinge purity commitment:
- Natural origin materials
- No microplastics
- No genetic engineering
- No environmentally harmful additives
- No animal testing
All the ingredients of the ecological leather grease are listed.
With this leather grease, you achieve the optimal care, keeping your Lieblinge soft and durable.
If your Lieblinge get wet, it's best to stuff them with paper and let them dry gently. Do not place the Lieblinge on or near a heater to dry. This can cause the leather to dry out, become stiff and brittle, and potentially lead to color changes.
