What Makes a Truly Supportive First Walking Shoe: Inside Taranis ONE ONE
During the first years of life—from birth to around age three—many parents find themselves asking the same question: What kind of shoes does my child really need when learning to walk?
At this early stage, a child’s first walking shoes are less about performance and more about providing a stable, comfortable, and secure environment for early steps. Thoughtful design can help children feel more confident as they explore movement, balance, and coordination at their own pace.
At Taranis,the comfort and everyday walking experience of young children have always guided our design approach. ONE ONE Shoes are the result of years of stability-focused on stability, material performance, and structural design—created to reflect what a thoughtfully made first walking shoe should offer.
ONE ONE Shoes are not simply winter footwear. They are thoughtfully designed first walking shoes, focused on stability, protection, and everyday comfort for children in the early stages of walking.

The Core Value of ONE ONE Shoes
Technology MAX · Protection MAX · Stability MAX
ONE ONE Shoes are built on one central principle: stability. From the outsole and internal structure to material selection, every design decision is made to elevate a child’s walking experience and redefine the upper standard of high-end first walking shoes.
Premium Vibram® Rubber Outsole
Backed by the Global Leader in High-Performance Rubber
ONE ONE Shoes feature a Vibram® rubber outsole, a material widely recognized for its reliable traction and durability in functional footwear.
Key performance advantages include:
-
Superior slip resistance, suitable for low-temperature environments
-
Lightweight construction without unnecessary bulk
-
High abrasion resistance for extended durability
-
Environmentally responsible rubber formulation
-
Stable ground contact and support early steps
A cold-weather, slip-resistant rubber compound is used to provide dependable traction on wet or slippery surfaces commonly encountered during colder seasons.
This material choice reflects a focus on functional performance and everyday stability rather than decorative elements.
Polar Bear Paw–Inspired Outsole × Vibram Multi-Density Zoning

Protection MAX: Globally Selected Shearling Lining
A Premium Interior Rarely Used in Children’s Footwear

What Defines a True Premium First Walking Shoe?
A thoughtfully designed first walking shoe is not defined by a single material or marketing feature. Instead, it reflects a careful balance of stability, comfort, protection, and everyday usability—supporting children as they take their earliest steps at their own pace.
Features such as reliable traction, comfortable materials, and a stable structure can help create a secure environment for early walking. ONE ONE Shoes were designed around these principles, with the goal of offering comfort, warmth, and confidence during a child’s first walking experiences.
