Shoe Be Doo and Shoe Be Baby is the inspiration of a mother who, frustrated by the lack of quality, fashionable footwear for her children decided to "DOO" something about it. She went to Italy, enlisted the best children's shoe makers she could find and since 1982 has brought "state of the art" children's footwear to America. Since then, we have devoted ourselves to developing fashionable footwear crafted to fit the contours of American children's feet. Soft leather uppers and linings are used, which is especially important in allowing formative feet to breathe. Our flexible soles offer comfort and promote natural development of growing feet. Our European/American design team blends ideas, balancing a sense of sophistication and fun, with a unique look. All Shoe Be Doo shoes are unique because they are now and have always been handcrafted in Italy.
