Why HaCo Baby Booties?
HaCo Baby Booties are the only footwear a baby requires in their first year.
A Look at the Development Stages
Newborns
Baby feet are soft and look like marshmallow clouds. The bones are not yet fully formed. At this stage, HaCo Baby Booties keep feet protected in a non-restrictive bootie.
6 Months
Baby feet are still flat and there is no arch development yet. Bone strengthening and development is occurring at a very fast rate. Baby begins to become tactile and begins to take control of their hands. HaCo Baby Booties are guaranteed to stay on during exploration and wiggle time.
9 Months
Baby’s feet are rapidly changing as they are beginning to be on the move. At this stage, HaCo Baby Booties provide a layer of protection from cold floors and the non-slip grip gives baby traction as they begin to learn to move around.
12 Months
Sufficient bone and muscle strengthening has occurred allowing baby to begin to bear weight on their feet. The foot is lengthening and is less marshmellow-like. Conforming to the foot, HaCo Baby Booties act like a second skin allowing adequate bio feedback to ascend from the foot in contact with the floor to neural sensors. This feedback helps develop coordination.
Once an infant is walking, hard sole shoes are recommended for outdoor wear.
Baby’s First Shoes
What Do the Experts Say?
“HaCo Baby Booties are the perfect footwear for babies – they are warm, soft, and lightweight. They let your baby move freely and I love that they never fall off. Plus, they are adorable looking.
Highly recommended!”
– Dr Julie Johnstone, Paediatrician and Mom
Soft sole shoes are all a baby needs for development in their first year. Their feet are protected, but they can also feel the ground below them which help babies and toddlers naturally develop strength in their feet. Haco Baby Booties are great because they actually stay on! The grip fabric also helps to prevent slips.
Highly recommended!”
– Jenna Peters, Physical Therapist, Victoria BC

How do you say it?
Origin of the name
“HaCo Booties”
Canadian winters can be brutal to those not use to the extreme elements. My mom was one who grew up on the prairies and learned from a young age that there were some staple clothing items she needed in order to go outside to keep warm and comfortable.
What were those?
A hat.
A coat.
And boots.
Now, as a toddler growing up in the mid-20th century she naturally wanted to play outside no matter what the weather. However, she was not yet old enough for proper language, so she stood by the front door hollaring out “Ha….Co….Boots!”
This fun story was lovingly told to me by my grandmother many times in my youth sometimes complete with a reinactment.
I believe it perfecty encapsulates what it means to grow up in Canada and the innocent spirit of little ones.

Oh wow! I’m in love, these are the sweetest little booties to keep our little guys feet warm in cooler AC car trips in the summer, fall /winter, and even cooler spring weather. Robyn went above and beyond, thank you so much for the extra surprise too! They are so perfect! And now we’re guaranteed to keep the feet warm in case of a growth spurt! Thanks again Robyn! ♥️🙏
These have become a daily staple in our household. Very well made and warm, my cruising 9 month old has no slipping issues in them with the sticky soles. Just ordered our second pair so we never have to go without!
These booties are amazing! Our little one is just starting to walk and I feel so much better knowing her feet are protected and she’s got good grip to keep her steady! We ordered these from the newborn stage too, and they NEVER fell off!!! 1000% would recommend! Thanks Robyn!!!
