The Sam

Designed by a mom who understands growing feet — these shoes blend style, comfort, and healthy development in one perfect pair.

• Wide toe boxes for natural movement and balance. 💬 “Perfect for growing feet — my toddler finally stopped tripping!”

• Zero drop, flexible soles that support confident steps. 👣 Loved by over 5,000 parents for helping little ones walk naturally.

• Soft, genuine leather for breathable comfort. 💕 "They’re the only shoes my kid doesn’t try to kick off.”

• Easy on and off — little ones can do it themselves. 🙌 “Game changer for preschool mornings!”

• Built to last through playdates, puddles, and hand-me-downs. 💪 Trusted by moms who pass them down — and they still look great.

Every pair of Little Love Bugs is designed with comfort, safety, and healthy foot development in mind.

Please note, the pull tabs on our shoes are primarily decorative and do not serve a functional role in putting the shoes on or off.

While they add a stylish touch, their practical use is limited to aesthetics.

For enhanced safety, the eyelet seen in some photos of (example: The Quinns) has been intentionally removed to prevent potential snagging.

Every Little Love Bug shoe is barefoot-inspired to promote natural movement, strength, and balance.

Made for babies, toddlers, and big kids who love to move — just the way nature intended. Learn more about our barefoot difference.

When in doubt, size up — little feet grow fast!

Our shoes are designed for a natural, barefoot feel with room to wiggle and grow.
