When I think back to the very first time I discovered Ozznek Shoes, it takes me to three years ago when my son was just starting to walk. That stage is so tender — when little ones are teetering between crawling and running, and you want shoes that let them explore freely without holding them back. That’s when I found Ozznek, created by Uju Uzuegbunam, and her clever idea of removable sole shoes.
Why Ozznek Shoes Stood Out for Us
The removable soles immediately caught my attention. Heading into the colder months, they gave us so much flexibility:
When my son needed a break and I popped him into the carrier, I could remove the soles. That meant no muddy shoe bottoms all over my babywearing coat.
Once we got into the car, I could slip off the soles to keep his feet warmer and avoid dirt on the seats.
Indoors, he could still wear the upper portion comfortably, almost like a soft shoe, while I saved the soles for outdoor adventures.
It was such a thoughtful design that made everyday parenting easier. And honestly, that cleverness, blending comfort, practicality, and sustainability is what makes Ozznek a brand I keep coming back to.
Ozznek Fall Collection: What We Tried and Loved
This year, with my baby girl and 3 year old, I’ve been able to experience some of Ozznek’s latest fall items. Here’s what’s been keeping us cozy:
We loved the original Ozznek gripper socks, but the new fleece-lined gripper socks are a total game changer. They’re soft, plush, and perfect for chilly mornings. They keep the non-slip soles that gave my kids confidence when learning to walk, but now with the bonus of warmth and coziness. These are easily the first socks I reach for when the temperatures drop.
This beanie might just be the cutest fall accessory we own. With little raised “spikes,” it gives off a playful dinosaur vibe. My almost-four-year-old keeps trying to snag it even though it’s too small for him — which says a lot about how fun it looks. It’s a practical hat that keeps my baby warm, but also whimsical enough to make her smile every time I put it on.
My son is in love with his new Ozznek kids’ raincoat. At almost four, he still has lots of room to grow into it, which is such a relief because kids’ coats usually feel like they’re outgrown in no time. It’s sturdy but lightweight, perfect for layering. He wore it during a misty evening walk recently and looked so proud to have a “big kid” coat that’s all his.
Cozy Tights for Babywearing Days
Babywearing in cool weather often means chilly little legs sticking out of the carrier. Ozznek’s cozy tights solve that problem beautifully. They’re warm, stretchy, and soft — perfect for layering under dresses or pairing with socks. It’s such a simple addition to their lineup, but one that makes a big difference on windy mornings.
Why We Keep Choosing Ozznek
Over the years, what I’ve loved most is that Ozznek products balance style, comfort, and practicality. Uju has such a gift for designing items that kids actually want to wear, and that parents can feel good about buying. From the removable sole shoes that first won me over, to the playful fall items that make my kids excited to get dressed, Ozznek keeps delivering high-quality, thoughtful products.
And honestly, supporting Uju feels just as meaningful. Getting to know her has shown me that Ozznek isn’t just another kids’ brand. It’s a mom-led company that’s creating products with care, intention, and love.
Final Thoughts
From my son’s first steps three years ago to bundling up my daughter this fall, Ozznek has been part of our journey. The fleece-lined gripper socks, dino beanie, roomy raincoat, and cozy tights have quickly become essentials in our home. If you’re looking for innovative kids’ shoes or thoughtful fall gear for toddlers and babies, Ozznek is a brand worth checking out.
