Bobux International—Andrew Sharp
Bobux Blaze
The Bobux Blaze is Bobux's most advanced shoe yet, designed for toddlers and preschoolers in the EU22-29 size range. They wanted to expand on the innovative thinking, which brought the Bobux Xplorer in 2014. By going back to square one- how are kids actually using their shoes? How did Bobux improve on the current market offering?
