Barefoot and Bootiful with Bobux Shoes

I am and always have been very careful about what I put on my children’s feet

As often as possible

Indoors and out

They love to run and play barefoot

Esther and William did not walk until they were 21 months

And so they did not really wear any shoes until that time

As with most children they got their first shoes from Clarks

But that has been their only pair

Now and for the last couple of years

My children wear barefoot shoes

Even for school

Wide fitting shoes

That do not restrict movement and growth

Shoes that have softer soles

To allow a more natural gait

Give sensory feedback from the ground

And enable their feet to develop as they should

Without restriction

One of my favourite places to buy such shoes

Is Bobux

I first tested Bobux with Matilda Mae

She needed some pram shoes for the one winter she was alive

This year William was sent some summer sandals to review

And on the strength of our testing

I then bought Esther some Bobux shoes for school

The sandals that William has he adores

We call them his cage shoes

Or his smart sandals

He loves them for biking in as they are open to keep his feet cool

But closed at the toe for protection

The sandals are very smart and can be worn for any occasion

They have survived a summer of play well

And in fact will probably able to be worn again next year

As we got them slightly too big and William’s feet do not seem to grow very much very fast

The Classic Sandal in biscuit

A handsome shoe I think you will agree!

This lovely leather shoe

Has an adjustable velcro strap

Making it easy for children to get the sandals

On and off themselves

These New Zealand designed shoes

Endorsed by Podiatrists

Are good for the ‘sole’

Allowing children natural balance, posture and coordination

They are great shoes for girls and boys

For work and for play

For school Esther chose these Wildflower Mary Janes

They are very pretty but perfect for school

With their leather upper and flexible gum sole

They are really comfortable for long school days

Great for running, skipping and climbing

And with the velcro strap they are easy for Esther to get on and off on her own

As pretty as these shoes are they are not going to see my girl through the winter

And so I have my eye on some Bobux boots

For both children that again will be perfect for everyday life

And for school

I love the Splash boots

The unique new Bobux 100% leather splash boot range comes in five rich colours. Using innovative splashtex™ leather technology exclusive to Bobux, splash boots are water resistant, hardwearing and deliciously warm whilst stylish enough to be worn in the most sophisticated situations

and these Blizzard Boots

Lined with pure wool I wouldn’t mind some of these for myself!
