Founded in 1873, Tsukihoshi initially manufactured Tabi Shoes- traditional Japanese footwear that features a split toe. The split toe of Tabi shoes is beneficial for improving balance and allowing a fuller range of movement. This attention to intelligent design has been continued for generations, with Tsukihoshi now making childrens shoes that have a spacious toe-box that provides room for growing feet and softer bones. In addition to being the ideal shape for a rapidly growing kiddo, Tsukihoshi’s colors are glorious as well!  Get your kid a shoe they will feel comfortable running around in, like the Velocity, which features a wide toe box.
