Jaden Baby Sneakers are a unique design of baby booties in the combined style of Velcro sneakers and boots. These
shoes may be worn by both girl and boy babies, and have a mischievous and playful look to them from their pleated
flaps. If you want to make these sneaker-styled booties more masculine or feminine, you may want to pick a fabric with
an unmistakably boyish or girlish pattern. Jaden Baby Sneakers have a casual look that makes it well-suited for indoor
play or day-to-day stroller wear, and are a popular item among mothers with little children. Designer’s Review

Cut out the Fabric
Draw the patterns directly onto the wrong side of a single layer of fabric. Because there is a right and left
shoe you will need to reverse the sole, upper boot, lining flap pattern when tracing. Make sure the right
and left pieces are separated to avoid confusion when attaching the soles. Cut out the exterior, lining, and
interfacing. Fuse the interfacing on the wrong side of the lining following the manufacturer’s guide.

Sew the Upper

Pin one straight edge of the exterior upper toe piece to one straight edge of the exterior upper boot piece
with right sides together, see Picture 1. Sew the toe piece to the boot piece, backstitching on both ends and
leaving a ¼” seam allowance at the top , see Picture 2. Repeat the process on the remaining straight edge,
without leaving a ¼” seam allowance, see Picture 3. The result should look like Picture 4. Repeat this
process for the other exterior upper pieces and the lining upper pieces.

If the fabric still gathers or tugs at the corners, flip it wrong side out again and clip as needed.

Assemble the Upper and Sole

Place the exterior upper on the exterior sole with right sides together, matching their center points. Pin
the toe and heel. Pin around the rest of the sole, clipping the heel seam as needed, see Picture 13. Sew the
sole, backstitching on both ends, see Picture 14. Repeat for the other upper.

Place the lining upper on the lining sole with right sides together, matching their center points. Pin the toe
and heel. Pin around the rest of the sole, clipping the heel seam as needed. Sew the sole, backstitching on
both ends and leaving a 2 ½” gap for turning, see Pictures 15-16. Clip the curved seam. Turn the shoe right
side out; pin and stitch the opening closed, see Picture 17.

Turn exterior side out and the result should look like Picture 18. Separate a Velcro piece and sew the soft
side onto the exterior upper of the shoe. Sew in a rectangular shape, pivoting at the corners and
backstitching on the start and end points, see Picture 19. Repeat for the other shoe.

Make the Flap

The flap will be made from one long exterior piece, and one small lining piece, see Picture 20. First, sew the
remaining rough side of the Velcro onto the corresponding side on the right side of the lining flap piece.
Sew in a rectangular shape, pivoting at the corners and backstitching on the start and end points, see
Picture 21.

Fold and sew the pleats on the long exterior piece, with the direction of the pleats facing upward, see
Picture 22. Sew the pleats on the opposite side with the direction of the pleats facing downward, see Picture
23.

leaving a gap to turn right side out, see Picture 24. Trim the corner seams, see Picture 25. Turn the flap right
side out and stitch the opening closed, see Picture 26. The result should look like Picture 27. Make the other
flap in the same manner.

Attach the Flap

Sew the flap ¼” to ¾” over the edge of the shoe’s upper, backstitching on both ends, see Picture 28. Sew
two buttons to the outer edge of the flap. The completed shoe should look like Picture 29. Repeat this
