The TIDAL sandals in Rainforest Green are made from fast-drying leather, unlined at the front to optimise the quick-dry effect, and lined at the heel to keep growing feet comfortable. Feet are protected by a closed-toe design, while cutouts in the premium leather act as vents to improve breathability. TIDAL has all the features to keep feet cool and comfortable all summer long. Suitable for first walkers, this style fits true to size.

PLEASE NOTE: using months only is not an accurate way for deciding size

we not not agree with the Bobux months stated on sizes 18 to 22

Bobux shoes are designed to include a little extra ‘wiggle room’, so sizing might seem larger than other brands.

If your child measures at the beginning of a Bobux size, they’ll have around 14mm of space between their foot and the end of the shoe, allowing them 7mm of growth and 7mm of wiggle room.

Your child’s toes should never be touching the end of the shoe.

As you can see the Xplorer, Step Up and I-Walk ranges include size 22. This is because of the different developmental stages children can be at when wearing this size - some are walking confidently, others are still finding their feet! 

We try to be as flexible as we can, as we know that it is not easy with sizes!

Returns

For online purchases (except for clearance  styles as below) we have a 14 day returns policy (includes swaps) from when you receive the goods. We do refund subject to clearance policy below.

As standard, returns must be wrapped, in original packing (box), not worn outside with all tags attached and internal wrapping paper

Cost to return is yours, we suggest track & trace as it is at your risk.

Please return to:

In store purchases have a 7 day returns period.

Swaps

For an incorrect size (except for clearance  styles as below)  - we allow 1 swap for a change in size (cost to return is yours and we send the replacement at our cost). Phone or email us with what you would like to do and once returned we will send out the new size. To quicken the process up, you can place another order for the correct size & we'll send it out - then refund once the original is returned (at your cost).

If the second pair sent is returned we will deduct a $7-00 restocking fee from any refund.  This helps us with the cost of the 2 freight charges.

For swaps please return to:

Bundles

If part of a bundle (group of items with an added discount) is returned, any amount refunded will bring the cost back to the original non bundled price.

e.g. 2 packs of socks at $20.00 each normal price, A total of $30.00 paid, 1 pair returned the refund will be $10.00. This brings the amount paid back to the non bundled price of $20.00

Clearance Lines

Clearance lines will have a specific returns policy, outlined in their product description in red. If not there then our standard returns policy applies.

Mostly they will be less a returns fee, however:

Clearance items under $60.00 are NOT RETURNABLE or SWAPPABLE

The sale is a final sale

Socks

Socks are not returnable

Shipping

Shipping within NZ is free. We use Aramex NZPost (courier) or Poste Haste Couriers and aim to get your purchase to you as quickly as possible.  They will leave our shop the same day (not weekends or public holidays) if ordered before 1:00p.m. or next day if ordered after.

We try to aim for overnight delivery within the North Island, but this may not happen. South Island deliveries can take 3 days or more.

Post Office Box numbers can take a bit longer, as we have to shut the shop to get to the Post Office to send, but we are happy to do it.

There is no charge for Rural Deliveries, so please add your R.D. number to make it easier for our staff.

Don't you hate it when a few days after buying a product you find that it has gone 'on sale' and is now cheaper!

Well we hate it too.

That's why we have our Unique Lowest Price Promise

If you find your product (purchased from us) on our website in the same style/colour/size at cheaper price we will refund you the difference. (within 1 month of purchase)

Yes, that means you don't have to worry about it going on sale.... it really is at the cheapest price.

Just contact us with your order number & name & we'll get right on to refunding you, ASAP.

At Bobux we use premium materials. 
We understand that all textiles are not created equal and we use each in a way that utilises their specific strengths and best contributes to the overall performance of the shoe. Given the diversity of our range, we may use a mix of materials and you'll find all the materials used in any given shoe listed in the description of that shoe. Below you will be able to see what care is recommended for each material so you can make good decisions and maximise the longevity of your Bobux shoes. Hope it helps!
