Wow, what a beautiful (in different ways) pair of shoes! I bought the North Wolf shoe for my daughter, since she has only wore barefoot shoes up to today, but needed something a little sturdier. I came across Wildling Shoes and absolutely love them. I love that the biggest part of the shoe is made from natural materials, and that it is just wool! It keeps her feet nice and warm but also has a waterproofing function. Besides that it also looks like a "real" shoe. I cannot wait until I can buy a pair for myself. I honestly want to switch to barefoot shoes as well since I have had a whole summer of walking barefoot a lot and now am really struggling with my feet. But for my daughter I want to keep her natural movement and feet shape.
