 American charity worker Kenton Lee and his team invented sandals that match the pace of children's growth via a system of buckles, buttons and pegs, which expand the shoes in length by up to five sizes. Build to last at least five years, they are made out of durable leather, metal snaps and compressed rubber. 
 
 In much of the developed world, the clothing needs of fast-growing kids can significantly impact a family's budget; but for those in impoverished areas who can't afford to buy shoes, the consequences can be far more severe. Without protection for their feet, these children are susceptible to infections from cuts, scrapes and soil-borne parasites that burrow into the skin, according to Lee's website The Show That Grows. 
 
 Lee was inspired to create the sandals while working at an orphanage in Nairobi, Kenya in 2007. He was struck by the sight of a small girl whose shoes were so small that the ends had to be sheared off so her toes could poke out, according to The Shoe That Grows. Looking around, Lee quickly realized the girl's plight was not uncommon. 
 
 Around 400 million children worldwide live on less than $1.25 a day, and according to the organization's website, more than 300 million have no shoes. 
 
 “So right there, spur of the moment, I thought, ‘Wouldn't it be nice if there was a pair of shoes that could adjust and expand their size? A pair of shoes that could grow?'” Lee told KPTV, a Portland-based television outlet. 
 
 Lee and his team shopped the idea around to various established shoe companies without success, before they partnered with Gary Pitman. The footwear veteran previously worked at Nike and Adidas, but left to start his own shoe design company, according to KPTV. It took Pitman several months to develop Lee's design into a finished product, and he used a 3D printer to model foot sizes. ||||| We distribute our life-changing shoes through partner organizations that work around the world.

 How does this work? 
 
 We rely on individuals and organizations who are already serving kids living in poverty around the world to get our shoes distributed. These same groups help us with the cost of the shoes, and because we’re a nonprofit, we work hard to keep costs low at about $15 per pair for these high quality, long lasting shoes. 
 
 You can order shoes here at any time, and we’ll get them to you as quickly as possible so you can get them to kids in need! 
 
 Is there a minimum order size? 
 
 There is no minimum! We want to work with you whether you can help us get one pair or thousands of pairs to kids in need. 
 
 How quickly can I get the shoes? 
 
 Once we have your order and donation, we will ship the shoes to your US location within 7 business days and in many cases, much sooner. 
 
 I need to fundraise, can you help? 
 
 Yes! We have our own fundraising platform where you can create your own page and once finished we will send you one pair for every $15 fundraised. It’s quick and easy to set up and share with others. Once your page is set up, we’ll mail you a free fundraising toolkit that includes a pair of The Shoe That Grows!

 Do the shoes work for kids everywhere? 
 
 We are committed to creating shoes designed specifically for kids living in poverty all around the world. The original version of The Shoe That Grows is a somewhat open-toed design and sandal-like. This works very well for children in more temperate climates, both dry and wet. For children in areas with cooler seasons, many wear socks with the shoes. But we’re also in the process of designing a more fully enclosed version, providing more warmth and protection for kids that need it. More to come! 
 
 Do the shoes fit children of all ages? 
 
 The shoes are available in 3 sizes: 
 
 Our youth small size starts fitting kids between 3-5 years of age depending on the child and usually fits up to about 8-10 years of age or US toddler sizes 11 up to about a women’s size 3. 
 
 Our youth large size starts at about 8-9 years of age and fits to about 14-15 or into adulthood. It grows from about US women’s size 2.5 to about a size 8. 
 
 Our adult size starts at about a US men’s size 6 to about a men’s 11.

– Think it's difficult keeping your growing child in fitting shoes? Imagine trying to do it on $1.25 a day. Some 400 million children live in such circumstances, and about 75% of them don't have shoes, Mashable reports. That struck Kenton Lee, 30, when he was working at an orphanage in Nairobi, Kenya. "Wouldn't it be great if there was a shoe that could adjust and expand—so that kids always had a pair of shoes that fit?'” he wondered, per his company's site, when he saw a girl wearing shoes so small they had been cut to let her toes peek out. Now such pairs do exist. The Shoe That Grows is a sandal equipped with various buttons and pegs to allow it to grow along with a child. It lasts five years, the company, Because International, says on its site. "I had no idea how important shoes were before I went to Kenya," Lee tells BuzzFeed. "But kids, especially in urban areas, can get infections from cuts and scrapes on their feet from going barefoot, and contract diseases that cause them to miss school." The Shoe That Grows sells for as little as $10 per pair, per the website, which notes that 50 pairs can be carried in a suitcase. You can donate to help send the shoes to countries including Ecuador, Haiti, and Kenya. Some 2,500 kids have benefited so far, BuzzFeed notes.
