Bobux - Baby Shoes That Actually Stay On!!!

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

I love shoes! I used to love shoes with heels, you know the kind; ridiculously painful to walk in but looked awesome so you wear them anyway! Now I don’t have much cause for wearing heels these days but I have found a most fabulous substitute to feed my shoe craving - Bobux Original Baby Shoes! Read on…

But these gorgeous little shoes are so much more than just a great looking accessory for your baby, they are brilliantly functional too. Made with Eco-Leather, Bobux baby shoes are safe for your baby and the environment, which means your baby can suck away on their shoes til their heart is content - a real bonus for my Honey who loves nothing more than to give her shoes a good chew, whether they are on or off her feet! The beautifully supple nappa leather is as close to bare feet as it gets and they are so super super soft - perfect when your tot is learning the art of using their feet to get around with the suede soles giving crawlers and cruisers a bit more grip and a lot less slip when moving about!

Bobux baby shoes come in the most gorgeous array of designs, there really is something for every taste and occasion. Our passion for Bobux began when Honey was given a beautiful pair of pink spotty ones for Christmas. I was so pleased because my search for something to help keep her little piggies warm had been previously met with real disapointment with other brands, which look exactly the same, but seem to fail completely to stay on her feet. Bobux are a New Zealand company and are the original creators of the clever ‘elastic and slot device’ that are key to keeping little shoes on little feet, and although other brands copy this, they seem to fall short in other areas some how. I have tried several alternative brands on Honeys feet and none have stayed put and when I have spoken to my Mummy friends, they have all had the same complaint, that they can’t keep shoes on their babies feet and the pricey shoes that they have purchased, are now missing one half! Having seen Honey parade around in hers, and hearing me rave about them, several friends have gone out and bought Bobux, and all have been absolutely delighted with them.bobux3930

Honey wore her first pair of Bobux shoes all day every day for six months! They never fell off and she didn’t  ever pull them off, and although, naturally, after helping her learn how to crawl and then cruise, they were a little worn at the very tips of the toes, they wiped clean very easily and always looked great. She is now in her second pair which have just helped her learn how to walk (8 steps in a row unaided yesterday - very proud!) and I feel so much more confident letting her cruise about and stand up on wooden floors and solid surfaces as I know she has a brilliant grip wearing her shoes. In fact I don’t think she has ever slipped forward or back whilst wearing her Bobux which is fantastic, and very reasuring!

Bobux also make hard-soled shoes, and a great looking range for first walkers and cruisers which have a split sole to allow feet to flex….I think I feel another purchase coming on!!!

ABOUT THIS AUTHOR

Hello! I am Holly, I gave birth to my little Honey Kea in June 2009 and am loving being a full-time Mum! I was so relieved to come across Fill-Your-Pants when I was pregnant and desperately trying to find practical advice about real nappies. I really liked the idea of using real nappies for all the usual reasons but was so excited to find that they came in so many fantastic styles - with so much choice and great performance results, I was soon hooked!
