Life With Bobux

Fitting kids' shoes and understanding foot width can be a challenge. While our little ones grow, their feet continually change in both width and length. It can be especially challenging when your child has wide or narrow feet! It’s important to ensure kids are fitted in the right shoes to encourage natural and healthy foot development to avoid all manner of foot problems. 

This Fathers' Day we're celebrating the ones who care for, support, guide and love our next generation - Dads, Grandpas, Single Dads, Uncles, Stepdads, Mums who Dad, Soon to be Dads, Great Grandads, and all Father Figures.

We had a chat with some of our Bobux community (and their littlies) about what being a parent means to them and what they have planned for this Fathers’ Day.

How can something as ghastly as the stench of stinky feet issue from something as sweet and gentle as your beloved baby? But it’s true. Those supposed angels, your kids, are frequently the source of that foul, overpowering stench. How can this possibly be?!

To celebrate Mothers Day, we talked to some of our beloved Bobux community. Aeronwy, Madie and Annaliese about what they have planned and why the day is special to them. We also checked in with their littlies on what makes their mum a mother like no other!

The timeless, the classic, the originator, the Jodhpur. This heritage boot has been a Bobux staple since 2011 and it’s never not been a best-seller. To mark the 10-year milestone of this extra special boot, we’re celebrating with an extra special edition.

Getting kids into the garden is a wonderful way to teach them about nature and where their food comes from. Here's a guide from our friends at Tui Garden, plus some fun activities to get your little ones inspired in the garden!

Back in the early 1990s, Bobux Founders Chris and Colleen Bennett were searching for shoes for their baby daughter Chloe. Unable to find the very best for their little girl, Chris took to the garage and created the world’s first pair of Soft Soles. Today Chloe has two babies of her own, and Bobux is a household name around the world! We caught up with the three Bennett kids Chloe, Hannah and Sam to hear what it was like growing up in the world of Bobux, and where Bobux has taken them on the 30 year journey to now.

It’s International Women’s Day, and today we wanted to celebrate some of the leading women who help make Bobux great. From the women who design our shoes to the women keeping our company running day to day, intelligent, creative women who help make the world’s best shoes for children’s feet. (But don’t worry there’s lots of men here too - but that’s another post)

Becoming a family looks different for everyone.
