Zappos Launches Adaptive Sandals For Children

Newport Boundless sandals by Zappos and Keen offer adaptive footwear for children with disabilities.

The Newport Boundless sandals, developed in collaboration with shoemaker Keen and available exclusively on Zappos' website, are making waves in the world of adaptive footwear. Priced at $60, these sandals are designed with a flexible back-heel and a Velcro adjustable strap, allowing children with disabilities to easily put on and take off their shoes independently.

Zappos' commitment to accessibility and adaptive clothing is evident in their partnership with Keen to create the Newport Boundless sandals. The product was the result of extensive feedback from a focus group of nine families with children with various disabilities. The children provided valuable insights on the design, emphasizing the importance of ease of use and universal design.
