How Pooligans was Born! 

Pooligans is a family business inspired by two sisters, Poppy and Alice. Both sisters have kids and weren't finding what they were looking for when it came to flexible all in one pool shoes, beach shoes and everyday play shoes! 

Poppy's daughter started walking at 10 months and it was too early to be in proper shoes. There was nothing with a flexible rubber sole to provide protection from everyday elements not to mention the scorching hot ground in Dubai!  

Alice has two children age 4 & 7 with an outdoor Australian lifestyle so naturally these shoes are worn constantly at the beach! 

We had to pick a name that matched our cheeky kids, after some brainstorming this is exactly how Pooligans was born! 

 

About the Shoes

Pooligans thick flexible rubber sole keeps feet from burning on hot sand and surfaces. The rubber soles are also anti slip on wet surfaces such as pool sides and tiled floor. 

Pooligans have fun designs and they have ended up not just being pool shoes and beach shoes. They can be used for everyday, around the house, soft play, playgroup, nursery and so many occasions! 

 

Family Friendly 

As both sisters use the shoes for children in different age ranges we can confirm they are extremely family friendly! They can be machine washed on a low temperature (remove the insole before popping them in the machine), they dry quickly and are easy to slip on and off wiggly toddler feet!

Each shoe has room to grow due to them fitting two sizes and they also come with a handy insole that you can remove once your child needs a bit more room too!
