JOYBEES WINS TWO GLOBAL FOOTWEAR AWARDS

Rodeo Splash Boot Awarded for Kids Fashion & Kids Fashion Boot

DENVER, Jan. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Joybees, a leading casual lifestyle footwear brand based in Denver, Colorado, has been recognized by Global Footwear Awards as an industry award winner. The Kids' Rodeo Splash Boot by Joybees is a top winner in both the Kids Fashion and Kids Fashion Boot categories.

"It is an honor to be internationally recognized by the 2025 Global Footwear Awards with two highly coveted awards for our new Kids' Rodeo Splash Boot," said Ken Dayley, CEO of Joybees Footwear. "Not only is our EVA-based boot completely unique in the market, but it is one of my personal favorites. Inspired by the dynamic popularity of Western pop culture, we created the first-of-its-kind classic cowboy boot silhouette with an innovative design, hybrid water-friendly details without compromising style that parents will appreciate, and kids will love!"

The two-time winning Kids' Rodeo Splash Boot embraces cowgirls and cowboys in spirit and spunk with puddle-proof comfort. The design includes drainage details, a textured outsole feature with built-in drainage, grippy soles, and uses the Joybees' signature HoneyFoam™ EVA, perfect for kids who move fast, play hard, and aren't afraid to get messy. The easy-to-wear boots feature signature side cutouts that offer a convenient grab point, making them easy to pull on and off. With a roomy fit and airflow-friendly detailing, the boots provide a light, airy feel for all-day comfort, and are also Popinz™ compatible. The Rodeo Splash Boot will be available in three colors, black, chicory, and flamingo pink, starting in mid-January at Joybees.com, starting at $39.99 in kids' sizes C6/7 – J3/4.
