Colourful, quirky, and cool. This Sheffield brand has been winning over design-conscious parents since 2011. If you're looking for something a little different, look no further.
A Northern Brand
Poco Nido was founded in Sheffield in 2011 by footwear designer Catherine Lobley. Combining this expertise and her love of colour and pattern, she created Poco Nido.
Since then, Poco Nido has grown into an award-winning British brand known for creating quirky, practical footwear that supports a child's natural movement from their very first steps. Alongside the shoes themselves, Poco Nido has always championed sustainability, with reusable packaging and a focus on reducing waste wherever possible.
The Poco Nido Range
Designed to be fun, practical and comfortable, Poco Nido shoes give freedom of movement with a little extra protection. Lightweight, flexible and easy to wear, they're designed to move with growing feet so that your little one can get on with the serious business of play.
Poco Nido's collection covers soft pre-walker shoes for babies to barefoot-friendly footwear for confident walkers. Across the range, you'll find playful prints, from dinosaurs and woodland creatures to florals and geometric patterns that have become a Poco Nido trademark.
Poco Nido at Happy LittleSoles
We have chosen to focus on Poco Nido's charming Strap Shoes for our collection. These lightweight leather shoes with a zero-drop recyclable sole combine flexible, barefoot-friendly construction with the quirky personality that made us fall in love with the brand in the first place.
Their simple fastening, a single wide Velcro strap, makes them easy for little hands to manage, helping build the confidence and independence that comes with learning to do things for themselves.
The Poco Nido Size and Fit
Our Poco Nido shoes start at a teeny EU20 and run up to EU25. They have a well-rounded toe box, making them a great fit for most toddlers, including those with higher insteps. It's always best to double-check measurements, especially if these are your baby's first pair of shoes!
To help you find the best fit, we've included centimetre measurements in our size chart. Our HLS UK sizes can differ from the manufacturer's UK sizes, so please take a look at the product-specific size guide before making your choice.
Why We Love Poco Nido
Poco Nido shoes are flexible, comfortable and easy to wear, but it's their playful personality that makes them so special. From cheeky monkeys to beautiful prints, the designs are unlike anything else on the market.
You can also find Poco Nido shoes in our collection of animal theme barefoot shoes
