Some brands take advantage of the fact that kids grow fast and set prices that most families can't afford. Here the quality is the same or better and we pay less than half. When he goes up a size in a few months we'll be back for sure.

They came in a size too small and I wrote to them without much hope. They replied the same day and the exchange was completely free. 10/10 service. And the shoe is super comfortable, very flexible.

The sole folds completely in half, I had never seen a kids' shoe this flexible. The suede is soft and the elastic closure is great for putting them on alone. My daughter runs and jumps without complaining.

FAQs
What kind of shoes does Nube Kids offer?
we design barefoot shoes for children — respectful footwear that supports the natural development of kids' feet. Our shoes are inspired by the barefoot concept, featuring wide toe boxes, flexible soles, and natural, breathable materials that ensure comfort and healthy growth every step of the way.
How do I choose the right size for my child?
Each style includes a detailed size guide with US and EU measurements. We recommend measuring your child's foot and using our chart to find the best fit.
💡 Tip: If your child is between sizes, we suggest choosing the next size up for extra comfort and room to grow.
What if I order the wrong size?
💡 Before you order, measure the foot and use the size calculator on this page. It is the one thing that prevents almost every problem, and it takes a minute.
If the size still is not right, you are covered: you have one free size exchange per order. Write to us with your order number and we'll guide you.
Do you offer any warranty on your shoes?
Yes! All our shoes are covered by a quality guarantee. If you notice any manufacturing defect, we'll replace them at no cost within 30 days of purchase — no hassle, no stress.
