When you’re two years old life is one great big adventure! There is playing, running, puddle jumping, rolling, climbing, bike riding and exploring all to be done on a daily basis. Sebastian lives life loud and full of energy. ALL. THE. TIME. Seriously there is no stopping this guy, even when he sleeps you know his brain is ticking over reliving everything he has done for the day and planning what he will get up to tomorrow… With that being said he can be tough on clothes and shoes, not intentionally, however, with living life hard and fast his clothing and especially his footwear takes a beating. So it would come as no surprise that I am always on the look out for footwear which can stand the ultimate test of ‘Sebastian’s great big adventure’.
Last month Sebastian and I were invited to attend the relaunch for Bobux kids shoes; now call me innocent, ignorant or even arrogant but before the event I didn’t even know what or who Bobux was… However, a quick search of the internet and I knew they did kids shoes (ah ha – now that was something I was dead keen to know more about!!)
Bobux has been designing and manufacturing awesome kid’s shoes since 1991, and recently relaunched their brand with perhaps their greatest shoe yet! And Sebastian has been lucky enough to thoroughly road adventure testing their Blaze ‘Play’ Shoe in both the Blue Snow Wolf and the Orange (hi top) Tigers. This shoe is their most advanced to date; designed with toddlers and preschoolers in mind, they are made to tackle the hard stuff (the adventure that is LIFE). “The vibrant print not only makes these shoes look epic- but they are also designed to help your little one tell their left from right. If the sharks are facing each other- the shoes are on the correct feet! The animal design is also are made out of a handy water resistant fabric- which helps keep the water off during the colder winter months! These bad-boys also feature the new Bobux sole. Developed using the latest technology- the sole is designed to be super flexible, durable as well as provide enough grip on slippery surfaces. And for the cherry on top- these shoes also feature a scuff resistant, micro-armour toe cap which helps limit bumps and scuffs on the front of the shoe. Woo! These shoes are seriously awesome- developed and designed to be the perfect shoe for PLAY.”
Bobux believe in stage not age and have a suitably gorgeous range of shoes for newborns right to 5 years, in boys and girls. Their website also offers a sizing tool to ensure you’re ordering the best possible fit for your child’s life stage – from the gorgeous Soft Soles for pre-walkers made from lovely soft leather to the latest and perhaps greatest Play shoe there is a shoe for each and every milestone of your child’s life.
The Bobux range is well made (think custom tread and a light weight sole)*, cleverly designed (animal print on the inside to teach left and right)*, tough-wearing (featuring a scuff proof toe cap)* and super stylish. Plus, all of their shoes are designed right here at home in New Zealand. They are podiatrist endorsed, child-safe (non toxic) and quality tested – so as a Mum, I can guarantee Sebastian’s feet are in good hands.
* these are all features of their new ‘Play’ shoe.
