What is a rainbow baby? 

If you’re one of the up to 15 percent of women who experience the loss of a child due to miscarriage, stillbirth or death during infancy, you know that it’s an extremely emotional and emotionally crippling experience. You may have felt bogged down by sadness. Many have described being in a dark place or in the middle of a storm of loneliness. It seems nearly impossible to think of the day you may attempt to have another baby. This is what it means to have a rainbow baby. The rainbow baby is the term used to describe the birth of a healthy baby after the devastating loss of a child. The rainbow baby symbolizes the hope and light after the storm of devastation and loss. Rainbow babies are the personification of hope and love. 

ONLY USE Smith’s Leather Balm and a damp (with water) towel to clean.  

A note about sizing...

Please measure before you buy! We no longer offer free exchanges for kids shoes. Our sizes run differently than what your child may currently be using, so the best thing is to measure. Do not size up, our boots already include extra space for socks and growth. see our how to video.

How we make them

A craftsman cuts the leather by hand, choosing the leather carefully and making sure that he follows the grain of the leather, his expert eye tells him the best way to cut each piece. He then sews each piece with accuracy and exactness only seasoned cobblers have mastered. Each upper body is placed then in the shoe form and with skilled and strength, the master cobbler dresses the form and prepares it to attach the leather sole. The soles are then layered, one on top of another, he then cuts and sands the leather to perfection. Once the glue is dry the leather Artisan then carefully builds-up the finish with an expert’s eye, and touch, to achieve an aged patina in just the right places to reflect the aged qualities only time, wear, and frequent care could have accomplished naturally.

Handmade by Artisans
