Both the Step up and I-walk series have a size 22...why?
Not all children start walking well at the same age or at a certain foot size.
For example, for a child who started walking early and is currently walking well, with a foot size of 22, an I-walk series shoe may be most appropriate.
On the other hand, for a child who started walking relatively late, with a foot size of 22, the Step up or even Xplorer series shoes may still be more suitable (they are softer and have a different design, suitable for children learning to walk).
Are Bobux shoes suitable for the outdoors?
Bobux shoes of the I-walk and Kid+ series are designed specifically for hiking and playing outside.
Bobux shoes from the Xplorer and Step-up series can also be used outdoorsHowever, they have a softer construction, as they are not designed for such intensive use as the I-walk series children`s shoes.
Soft Sole slippers are designed for indoor playThey are the perfect slippers for preschool, nursery and home.
New b can be used indoors and outdoors - they are not for walking, they protect the foot from the cold or the sunThey are made of soft and delicate leather, so they should not come into contact with rough ground or sharp edges.
