Step into a retro and colourful spring 2011 with Angulus

January 4, 2011 by Scandinavian mum

We quite like the daring colours combined with high quality comfortable leather by danish shoe brand Angulus. The yellow sandals will definitely brighten up Amélie’s day and be a hit throughout the coming spring and summer. The leather sneakers for boys are available in brown aswell, but why not spoil the boys with some bright colours too? Prices from £60, but well worth in terms of quality and fit. Angulus was founded in 1904 and their shoes are therefor not only made with love an care but also more than 100 years of experience.

Petit by Sofie Schnoor autumn winter 2010

November 20, 2010 by Scandinavian mum

Yes, we still love Danish fashion designer Sofie Schnoor! Especially after seeing her subtle and nostalgic collection;
Petit by Sofie Schnoor autumn winter 2010.

Sofie Schnoor was originally a shoe designer, hence the great selection of trendy footwear. We find the entire collection being a mix of the pure and simple look with raw details that’s so trendy now.
All products are made using only long-lasting, soft materials of high quality with no use of fabricated or artificial materials.

I really did try to be selective, but just had to show you and share these beautiful pieces.

Nordic Clemente Copenhagen felt slippers

November 7, 2010 by Scandinavian mum

Clemente is a Danish company that designs and produces handmade felt shoes for baby, children and adults of 100% wool from Norway. The combination of design and quality of the wool makes these warming slippers special and unique.
The slippers is available in a variety of styles and colours in only organic material, European sizes 15 to 48.

www.clemente.dk

Felting is an ancient craft, being the oldest man made fabric and has a sustained heritage. There is a strong Nordic tradition of felted boots, socks, hats, and mittens. Through the Viking influence in the British Isles with years of trade, conquer and plunder there is evidence of similar felted items such as carpets, saddle blankets, clothing, and artwork.
The term felting refers to taking an animal fiber (most often wool), shaping it in some way, then, through a process of very hot water and agitation, converting it into a tightly cohesive fabric.

We use felt slippers at home and it’s nothing that’s more comfortable to wear during the winter months.

Danish quality shoes byKier

October 13, 2010 by Scandinavian mum

It’s not only established brands like Angulus and Bisgaard that spoil us with a fantastic range of footwear for our little ones.
Like Pom Pom byKier is also a newcomer as a danish brand within shoe design.




Behind the brand is the Danish designer Lone Kier who has 15 years experience as a shoe designer for famous shoes brands, like ECCO and Bundgaard but has since 2005 focused on developing the brand byKier. Lone is trained as a shoe designer at Cordwainers College in London.

byKier make designer shoes for children and tweens in sizes 19-41 in addition to their adult collection. byKier is sold directly from Denmark to the consumer which enables a lower retail price.
Their idea is that all children should be able to get trendy high quality shoes at reasonable prices. Why pay more than you have to and why drag you child from shop to shop to find the right shoes if you can do the shoe fitting and purchase in the comfort of your own home.
byKier is also environmentally concerned, ensuring that all shoes are produced with an awareness of the impacts on workers, communities and ecosystems.

Funky Moose Reflex wellies

June 1, 2010 by Scandinavian mum

Did you know that most children in Scandinavia would wear proper rain gear like waterproof dungarees and jacket or a all-in-one combined with wellington boots and Souwester hat. Children seldom wear a raincoat and a umbrella. Like how would they be able to explore that muddy puddle then?

Norwegian wellington boots for children and adults from Moose Reflex are the worlds first approved reflex rain boots. Made of superb high quality natural rubber and it comes with a pair of welly socks in soft wool that will keep you warm and comfortable.

We like the stars that are not only fashionable and fun but also very practical, as you will easy be spotted in the dark.

They launched their first collection this year and has so far been well received in Scandinavia. Hope to see some Moose Reflex out in Europe and in the UK as well!
