JOMA Tundra Junior: Children's and youth barefoot shoes for outdoor activities and trail running

Are you looking for footwear that respects the natural growth of your children's feet without sacrificing adventure? The JOMA Tundra Junior are the ultimate children's and youth barefoot shoes for outdoor activities and trail running. Designed according to the principles of respectful footwear, they combine a minimalist concept with exceptional sports performance so that children and young people can explore trails, run in the mountains, or play in natural environments safely, comfortably, and organically.

With the JOMA Tundra Junior, every step in nature becomes an opportunity to strengthen their muscles and improve their balance naturally.

Technical Features and Respectful Philosophy Materials

Joma has developed this model integrating specific mountain technologies that care for the foot health of the youngest in each of their growth phases:

• Zero Drop Technology (0 mm Drop): The sole has a uniform height across its entire surface (no heel elevation). This ensures an aligned and balanced body posture, preventing tension in the joints of children and young people during their development.

• Anatomical Barefoot Design Last: With ample toe box space that allows the toes to spread freely inside the shoe. This promotes stability and prevents foot compression, allowing it to work biomechanically correctly.

• Technical Knit Mesh Upper with VTS System: The outer cut is made of high-quality, very light, and breathable Jacquard textile. Thanks to Joma's VTS ventilation system, air circulates freely to wick away sweat and keep feet cool on the most active summer days.

• Flexible Rubber Sole with Trail Lugs: A thin rubber sole with high flexibility (approximately 5.5 mm total thickness) that provides direct contact with the ground for proper proprioception. It incorporates multi-directional traction lugs that ensure grip on uneven surfaces, dirt, mud, or loose stones.

• Antibacterial and Transition Insole: Includes a thin, breathable insole with antibacterial properties that prevent odor. Additionally, the footwear includes a transition insole (with a slight drop of approximately 5 mm) ideal for facilitating a progressive adaptation to minimalist footwear.

• Double Closure System According to Growth Stage:

  • Sizes 27 to 34: Mixed closure with elastic lace and wide Velcro strap to promote autonomy for the youngest.

  • Sizes 35 to 39 (Youth): Classic lace-up closure for a precise fit adapted to the motor needs of older children.

Benefits of Respectful Footwear in Nature

• Active Muscle Stimulation: By mimicking barefoot walking, this footwear activates and strengthens the intrinsic muscles of the foot and ankles.

• Optimized Proprioception: The thin sole allows children to better perceive the terrain they walk on, helping the body react optimally to ground irregularities.

• Extreme Lightness and Freedom: Free from rigid elements that limit the natural movement of the foot, they are ideal for trail running, school camps, parks, or daily use in outdoor activities.
