OUR

MANUFACTURING

Our shoes are carefully designed in New Zealand and lovingly crafted by our manufacturing partners in Indonesia.

SUPERIOR MATERIALS

 

Part of making the world’s best children’s shoes is sourcing the world’s best materials. Bobux shoes are held to an extremely high quality standard, they need to be durable, flexible to children’s movements, and easily adjustable for the perfect fit. It’s this level of detail that makes Bobux a better fit, more breathable, more comfortable and provide more protection than any other children’s shoe in the world.

 

HAND SELECTED MATERIALS

 

The most common material in our shoes is leather, which we hand-select from some of the world’s finest tanneries to meet exacting child-friendly standards. Our knits were developed uniquely for Bobux by leading materials scientists and the wool lining found in some of our cold-weather shoes is sourced from high-quality Australian and New Zealand Merino, the softest wool in the world. 

 

OUR

 

SHOES

 

Each one of our shoes is hand assembled from components that we craft individually. We work very closely with key manufacturing partners, many of whom we’ve been working with for over 10 years. It’s the people who make our shoes who help us keep this high standard, so we thought it best to tell our story through them.

 

ETHICAL MANUFACTURING

LOVE FOR OUR PEOPLE

It’s important to us as a company that we do good in the world, so we work with only ethical, professional manufacturing partners. We work closely with our factories and their skilled craftspeople to provide healthy and safe working environments. We have long-standing relationships with the people on the ground and regularly travel to collaborate in person throughout the design and manufacturing process. Being deeply involved in the production is a critical to being able to deliver the best solution and it is a part of the adventure we are very passionate about.

 

 

ENVIRONMENTAL JOURNEY

GOOD FOR OUR PLANET

We make shoes for children, so we want to make sure we’re protecting the world they will grow up in. With a strong commitment to environmental sustainability, Bobux continually seeks improvement opportunities. Over 50% of our shoe box designs are already made with recyclable materials, and it’s our goal to take this to 100%. We’re looking at every part of our business, from the way we make our shoes, the materials we use, to the way we ship them, and setting goals for a better future.

 

 We make the world’s best children’s shoes because of a commitment to constant improvement in our design, in our materials selection and in our manufacturing process. It’s a commitment that drives us ever forward, and one we now want to apply to the environment around us. We hope you’ll join us too
