OUR STORY pediped® footwear was founded in 2005 by Angela and Brian Edgeworth. After their first daughter Caroline was born, Angela started to do a lot of thinking about footwear and the kind of shoes that would be best for her child. She wanted a shoe that was comfortable and stylish and that could be worn both indoors and out. Most importantly, she wanted a shoe that was healthy for her daughter’s feet. KIDS CAN FEEL THE DIFFERENCE! We can’t count the times parents have told us how much their children love pediped® shoes and even refuse to wear other footwear. We know kids can feel the difference that healthy footwear makes. From day one, our mantra—comfort, quality and style—has been the same. COMFORT pediped® footwear is made with premium grade, non-toxic materials. Foam insoles & cushions provide a comfortable fit, while padded heels absorb shock. QUALITY Unsurpassed quality and craftsmanship have earned pediped® footwear a loyal following. Premium grade leather, distinctive styling and remarkable attention to detail have resulted in truly exceptional shoes. STYLE With fashion-forward styles to choose from for every walking stage, pediped® strives to give parents the look they want, at a price they can afford, all the while being healthy for children's feet. HEALTHY FOOT DEVELOPMENT Accepted American Podiatric Medical Association pediped Originals®, Grip ‘n’ Go™, and Flex® have been officially recognized by the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) as being beneficial for children's growing feet. In fact, our shoes were among the first children’s footwear to be awarded the American Podiatric Medical Association Seal of Acceptance for promoting healthy foot development.
