Please remember our garments and shoes are hand printed by actual people, so there may be areas of print which are not perfect.
Mini Shoes
Our mini shoes are what all your crawlers, walkers and recliners have been waiting for. The perfect combination of barefoot and shoe, allowing foot to ground contact with a little natural protection. The suede sole provides a hardy non-slip surface, which moves with your baby's foot. You can use them as a rather natty pre-walker shoe to avoid cold toes on a buggy ride or as an indoor shoe/slipper. Rest assured, what ever you do with your mini shoes, they'll be a talking point.
We only use natural materials for our youngest customers; our Mini Shoes are made in China from 100% cotton and Suede to give you peace of mind. You'll also be happy to know that unlike most other brands our Mini Shoes have no exposed elastic, this elastic can sometimes chafe and nip your baby's chubby little feet. Our shoes are constructed to conceal the elastic, which has the added benefit of shoes that stay on. Oh, and because babies like to explore with their mouths, every style we produce has to pass a series of chemical compliance tests, just to check there are no nasties hiding.
Where to Wear:
We recommend Poco Nido Mini Shoes are worn indoors only for walking children. Although they are durable, they are still a soft sole and may not protect against broken glass or other debris found outside.
Caring For Your Poco Nido Mini Shoes:
We recommend spot clean/wipe only. Due to the nature of real leather the sole will stiffen and harden if you put them through the washing machine, the leather will also become less grippy on smooth floors. If you find this happens over time with use, or if the mini shoes were washed by accident you can try and buff up the suede sole with a stiff brush.
Available in other prints with matching items, or mismatching, if that's your bag. Sizes 3-6m, 6-12m, 12-18m, 18-24m, Eur 21, Eur 22. No we don't make 0-3m, newborns don't need shoes.
All our full price mini shoes come cleverly packaged in a cardboard tube box which can be up cycled into an owl money box with the help of the craft and colouring sheet inside.
Wellies
Our 'Shorties' are a must have for all toddlers. The unique ankle height means your little ones can self dress and move with ease. No more crazy robot walking, kids can run in these boots. Pop a pair of these in your basket and they'll instantly become a firm favourite, some of our customers have been known to even wear them to bed.
These Ankle Wellingtons are made in China from 100% natural rubber and tested to check for anything that shouldn't be rubbing up against little Jonnie's skin. Rubber is GREAT, it's naturally warm and flexible. They won't crack or split or give you sweaty feet unlike cheap PVC boots.
Where to wear:
Anywhere apart from a stream. These are everyday wellies, wellies for taking siblings to school in. They are ankle height so best not to rely on them in a flood.
Caring for your Poco Nido Shorties:
Please don’t put your wellies in the washing machine…they are wipe clean only. These wellies are great for most things but we advise against wearing during scootering, due to the nature of rubber it will wear more quickly when dragged on the floor than PVC alternatives.
All our full price Ankle Wellies come packaged in a reusable heavy weight cotton bag.
They are available in infant sizes UK 4-10. Matching items are available.
Sneakers
Our Sneakers are for all your bigger little ones, perfect for the next steps. Your kids will rock these sneakers. All styles are easy for little fingers to put on, even the hi-top boot comes with a zip. Our favourite is the plimsol, a reminder of school P.E. lessons back in the 80s, but reinvented for the kids of today.
They're made in Vietnam from 100% cotton canvas with a vulcanised rubber sole.
Where to wear:
On your feet, outside, in a playground, kicking a ball, on a swing, up a tree.
Caring for your Poco Nido Sneakers:
They are canvas, so not waterproof. Please don't paddle in them. The coloured rubber toe bumper will mark and scuff, this is part of natural wear and tear.
All our full price sneakers come packaged in a rather fantastic reusable cardboard suitcase. We haven't slapped our logo all over it, so you can use it in your house with out looking like a brand slave. You're welcome.
They are available in infant sizes infant UK 4-1. European sizes 20-33. Matching items are available.
Apparel and Accessories
We're working towards making our all over print clothing from organic cotton. We know you all like a bit of organic cotton. But in the meantime our clothing is made from 100% regular cotton jersey in India and Turkey. We only use nickel free trims and we have taken the seemingly logical step of removing any neck labels for itch free comfort. All sizes are on the hip label.
Where to wear:
In a pram, in the park, in a cafe, at granny's house.
Caring for your Poco Nido Apparel:
All our cotton garments and accessories are machine washable at 30 degrees. Please wash with similar colours and air dry. If necessary reshape when damp.
They are available in assorted infant and child sizes. Please check the site for sizes. Matching items are available.
