Kiddies shoes that smell like Bubblegum…

bata kids shoes

December is around the corner and this year instead of staying at home – like we normally do, I’m taking the kids for a short vacation to my hometown – Durban.

This means that there will be a lot of traveling in the car, visiting family and sightseeing – so packing the right shoes for my kids is at the top of the list!

I need shoes that they can run around in, jump, skate and twirl without toppling over?

TIP: Honestly, I read a lot of reviews and ask friends for recommendations before purchasing shoes for my kids because I made that silly mistake of just purchasing random brands before and my daughter hated it, fell because the bottom was too slippery, and/or it wore out super-fast.

Thankfully, after the first child, we learned so that their siblings don’t have to go through the same.

Over a year and a couple of months ago, Kitana received her first pair of Bubblegummers shoes.

At first, we, like everyone else was totally surprised when we found out that these shoes genuinely smell fruity and it isn’t just a gimmick – a bit like bubblegum. But there’s actually more to the shoes than just the smell.

Having shoes that smell fruity is a bonus for me but not the reason why I will buy a pair.

Bubblegummers is more than just nice smelling shoes.

So, after a year and a couple of months of using Bubblegummers shoes, I can honestly tell you that they are worth the price. I’ve used the brand long enough to be able to say that with confidence.

Here’s why…

When Kitana received her first pair of shoes, I calculated in my head that the shoes should last max 3 months (no offense to the brand) but shoes don’t last with my daughter. And on top of that she has long feet so finding the right shoe for her is like Cinderella searching for her glass slipper.

3 months passed and the shoes still lasted. She jumped, ran and even bent the shoes with her ballerina moves but they remained the same.

8 months down the line, I realized that the quality is genuine. The shoes still look good and are perfect to wear except for the fact that her toes started sticking out a bit (time to move up a size).

And today… the shoes are still wearable. She used the sandal until a month ago.

Why Bubblegummers?

  • Bubble Health

All Bubblegummers shoes have sanitised insoles to avoid odours caused by bacteria.

  • Bubble Grip

Reduces the risk of falling and stumbling, with non-slip inlays that help to maintain children’s stability. This is supported by an outsole design that allows greater adhesion to different types of surfaces.

  • Unique Bubblegum Smell

The Bubblegummers brand is characterised by a special scent. A sole with Bubblegum essence enhances the brand identity.

Bubblegummers are designed with the highest standards of technology so that children can enjoy activities with the comfort and safety necessary for development and exploration in the early stages of their lives.

The brand caters for 2- 10-year olds and offers a choice of dress shoes, takkies, and sandals for both boys and girls.

Prices range from R299.95 to R399.95

Sizes range from toddler size 6 to 10 and kids’ size 11 to 3.

The only problem I had was that these shoes were hard to find but not anymore! I am super excited that they are finally in Edgar’s stores nationwide, so I challenge you to go check them out and sniff them if you have to and let me know what you think?

You can also find them online at Zando.

Now let’s see the cute summer range which Kitana will be even using at a wedding later next month.

  20. Copper scrap trade associations Copper has been used by humans for thousands of years, dating back to the Neolithic period. Its malleability, ductility, and resistance to corrosion made it an ideal material for tools and weapons. In fact, the Copper Age, which began around 4500 BCE, was characterized by the widespread use of copper tools and artifacts. One of the earliest known uses of copper was the production of copper beads in the Balkans around 6000 BCE. These beads were likely used as decorations or currency. Copper also played a significant role in the development of metallurgy, as it was one of the first metals to be smelted from ore. In ancient Egypt, copper was used to make jewelry, tools, and weapons. It was also used in medicine, as copper compounds were believed to have healing properties. The famous Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor is made of copper, and its greenish-blue patina is a result of the metal’s reaction with oxygen in the air. Copper was also highly valued in ancient Greece, where it was used to construct the famous bronze statues of the gods. The metal was often mined from the island of Cyprus, which is where the word “copper” comes from. In the Americas, the indigenous cultures of South America, such as the Moche and Incas, used copper for making jewelry, ceremonial objects, and tools. Copper was also an important trade item, and copper-smiths were highly respected members of society. Overall, copper has played a vital role in human history, and despite advances in technology and the use of other materials, it remains an important metal in modern industry and construction Scrap metal salvaging Copper scrap export services Copper scrap resource recovery Copper scrap evaluation Copper scrap innovation Metal recycling and reclaiming center

  21. Copper chloride recycling Copper is a highly conductive metal that is commonly used in electrical wiring and circuits due to its low resistivity. However, when it comes to transmission lines, copper is not often the preferred choice due to a few reasons. First, copper is a relatively expensive material, which makes it cost-prohibitive for the large-scale infrastructure required for transmission lines. Aluminum is a more economical option that offers comparable electrical conductivity and strength. Secondly, copper is heavier than aluminum, which makes it more difficult to transport and handle. This can increase logistics costs and make installation and maintenance more challenging. Lastly, copper has a higher thermal expansion coefficient than aluminum. This means that copper wires and cables tend to expand and contract more significantly in response to temperature changes. In transmission lines, this can cause stress on the connectors and fittings, leading to failures over time. While copper may be the preferred choice for some smaller-scale electrical applications, aluminum is generally considered a better fit for large-scale transmission lines due to its price, light weight, and thermal expansion properties Sustainable metal processing Copper scrap processing and refining Copper scrap advertising campaigns Copper oxide scrap recycling Copper scrap importers Metal waste recovery services
