Flip flops brand Moeloco has debuted a new design just for kids, with the style designed by a socially conscious 7-year-old.
Operating under the one-for-one social enterprise model, Moeloco donates one pair of shoes to under-privileged children for every one sold.
This has seen it donate shoes to more than 4000 children living on the streets and in slums in India since launching in November 2014.
Moeloco launched with a range of flip flops for adults in January 2015.
The thongs feature short inspirational messages such as ‘Dream Crazy’ and ‘Live Love’, carved into their soles.
The new children’s design features the message: Can Fly.
The Moeloco children’s flip flop was designed by budding young artist Georgia Lalli from Manly.
Moeloco founder Kathy Wong said she contacted Georgia’s family after seeing a sample of her work on Facebook.
“We are all about empowering children, and creating little leaders who make a difference,” Wong said.
“We allowed Georgia to create whatever she wanted. She loves birds and you see that come through in her artwork.
The Moeloco children’s flip flop is available online in sizes suitable for 2, 3 and 4 year olds, and retails at $39.95.
