With fall right around the corner and back to school season here, I have been stocking up on all the essentials for my kids. I got their new clothes, new backpacks, new supplies….but wait a moment…what about me?! As a mom I often let my own wardrobe slip. This past year I have been trying to remember myself and to give myself the treats I want and the essentials I honestly need. I have been lacking in the shoe department, which you may find funny. Most women love to collect shoes and love to change things up in their shoe collection. I have totally let this area of my life fall to the wayside. Although I definitely need some help finding booties that are on the more fashionable side that I can wear when I go out with my mum friends or on a day to day basis, I have been really needing a pair of rain boots. Having kids I seem to be outside more now than I ever have been in my life. Perhaps they need a pair of winter boots for kids too, to help them through the season. I love letting them play outside, but I hate getting my gym shoes all gross and mucky. Rain boots are really an essential in any moms wardrobe.
Oakiwear is a staple in the footwear world. They are made with such high quality materials and are affordable for any budget. Having been a leading shoe for kids, they have now branched out into women’s shoes. And boy, am I glad! Oakiwear boots are made with 100% rubber, allowing your feet to stay dry. What I love about 100% rubber boots is how easy they are to clean and fast to dry. I don’t have time to monkey around with cleaning shoes, I have dinner cook! With Oakiwear boots I can spray them off with a hose and call it a day.
Their huge selection of women’s rain boots range in sizes, designs, prints and colors. They really have something for everyone. Whether you like the more classic, traditional look or something funky and modern, Oakiwear has the perfect pair of boots for you.
When choosing a size to buy you will want to measure the insole of a current pair of boots you own. Pull out the insert and use a measuring tape or ruler to see how long a current pair you own is. This really helped me find the right size. I thought I was going to need one size but after measuring my current pair of winter boots’ insole I ordered a different size and I am glad that I did.
About 10 years ago a mom very much like myself, was searching for rain boots for her kids. She wanted ones that are durable, functional and fun. After searching without any luck, she new she needed to fix this situation. Thus, Oakiwear was born.
Kids love to play outside and get dirty. They need quality shoes that can help them play without breaking the bank. Kids grow so fast! Oakiwear keeps their price points low, knowing you will be back to by more after your first pair. They also need to be made with quality material that wont fall apart or be too hard to play in. They need to give a little to make the jumping-in-the-puddle game more exciting. They need to be able to run, jump and play in their shoes. Shoes that will not make them fall over when running or slide around when skipping. Oakiwear rain boots are made with the outdoor, active child in mind.
After having huge success with their outstanding footwear line, they also branched out into clothing like snow gear, outdoor wear, waders and sun guard suits for swimming.

Once the sun started to peek its head out here in Ohio, my kids were begging to go outside. My daughter and son are obsessed with ‘splashing in muddy puddles’ (thanks Peppa Pig) and they need the right gear to properly splash. As Peppa says, “you must wear your rain boots”. After my children telling me this several times I knew the search was on. I started looking at some reliable shoe companies I know of but none of them made toddler rain boots. I searched and searched and alas! Oakiwear found its way on my computer screen. After reading about how the company was founded by a fellow mother who’s children loved the outdoors I knew something special was here. Once my boots arrived it was true love.
Oakiwear boots are made with 100% rubber. This keeps their feet dry no matter how hard they jump, run and splash. My favorite feature are the handy little handles. Trying to get a boot on a toddler, for those of you who have not yet tried, can be a struggle. These handles allow me to help them put them on quickly. Once my kids know we are going outside to play they become way hyper and want to jump out of their skin trying to get out that door. I don’t have time to monkey around trying to get shoes on their feet. With Oakiwears handles I can slide their foot in, and once they stand up I hold onto the handles and make sure that they foot slides down all the way. The handles are ideal for toddlers and young kids who don’t want a parents help. It really assists them and builds confidence, knowing they can independently put on their boots.
I cannot believe how easy they are to clean off. My children love to slop in the mud and play by the horses in our backyard. It can get really muddy (and poopy) in certain areas. Because Oakiwear boots are all rubber this makes them easy to rinse off with a hose or towel. No more caked on mud for the Foxes!
These boots come in a ton of sizes, from toddler up through youth sizes. Once you get a pair you are going to keep going back each year as your kids feet grow. They are a brand worth sticking with.
