๐ Pretty Brave ยท Atlas ยท All-Purpose Trainer ยท Unisex ยท School & Beyond
Movement. Comfort. Durability. All day, every day.
From classroom to playground and everything in between โ the Atlas is a no-compromises school trainer built for active kids who need a shoe that keeps up with them.
The Pretty Brave Atlas is an all-purpose unisex school trainer built for active kids. Double hook and loop straps give a more precise, adjustable fit than a single strap โ and both straps are still easy enough for kids to manage on their own. The reinforced rubber toe cap protects the front of the shoe from the knocks and scuffs that come with everyday playground use.
The genuine leather upper breathes naturally and moulds to the foot over time, while the antibacterial comfort insole with extra padding keeps feet supported from the first bell through to after-school sport. In classic black, the Atlas works across most NZ school uniform codes โ and transitions straight from the classroom to the field. Available EU28โ36, designed in New Zealand.

What sizes does the Pretty Brave Atlas come in?
The Atlas is available in EU sizes 28โ36, covering kids from approximately 5 to 12 years. Measure your child's foot length in millimetres while standing and match to the size guide above. If between sizes, size up for growing room.
Are the Pretty Brave Atlas trainers suitable for school?
Yes. The Atlas is designed as an all-purpose school trainer โ sporty and supportive, with a classic black look that suits most NZ school uniform policies. We recommend checking your school's specific footwear requirements before purchasing, as policies vary.
Are the Atlas trainers unisex?
Yes. The Atlas is a unisex design suitable for boys and girls. The classic black colourway and sporty silhouette works across most school uniform codes and transitions easily from school to after-school activities.
How do the double hook and loop straps work?
The Atlas has two independent hook and loop straps that each adjust separately, giving a more precise and secure fit across the whole foot than a single strap. Both straps open wide for easy entry, and kids can put them on and take them off independently โ no help needed at the classroom door.
Is the Atlas upper made from real leather?
Yes. The upper is genuine leather, which breathes naturally and moulds to the foot over time. Combined with the antibacterial comfort insole and extra padding, the Atlas is built for long, active school days and after-school sport.
Where are Pretty Brave shoes designed?
Pretty Brave shoes are designed in New Zealand โ developed to handle real Kiwi conditions. Durable enough for concrete playgrounds, supportive enough for all-day movement, and built to keep up with active kids from classroom to playground and beyond.
