Darin Donaldson and Billy Price created Billy Footwear, a company that focuses on creating shoes that are fashionable and promote a universal design -- meaning they can be worn by anyone. After a spinal injury left the company creator paralyzed, the idea for inclusive shoes that both appeal to and work for anyone, came forward.
This new line of sneakers features the brand's classic FlipTop technology, allowing the entirety of the top to come off with one zipper. These stylish new shoes for kids are available in two styles: low top and high top and in six bold colors. Billy Footwear's new sneakers for kids will be available at the end of the month, being sold at major retailers such as Nordstrom.
