Ozone Socks Review

logo2ozone-socks_6c948e14
Can you say fun, fashionable, and funky footwear? Oh course you can, but are you bold enough to wear it? I am and I’m glad that I can thanks to Ozone socks. I’m now making an overall fashion statement from head to toe…literally!

I was able to review the Patch Fabric in prune, Walking on Roses in Orange, and the  Mixed up Argyle in Bordeaux. These socks are so fashionable, colorful with a bit of wildness to them! My 11 month old loves them. She comes over and pokes my feet, slaps them, and laughs. It’s such a sight to see. Maybe she thinks I’m silly or a bit crazy? …the honest truth is I’m both.

I like Ozone socks, if you knew me well, you’d say they suited me perfectly. Comfort is key, and I’ve worn socks that either come down, are too thin, and ones that make my feet too warm and sweaty! Nobody ever wants that in a pair of socks. But these socks, they stay put,  are  the perfect amount of thickness, and have not made my feet sweat in the least bit! Can we say winner?

Goodbye basic black and white and hello personality! The variety of styles and colors, I’m sure you’ll find more than enough pairs to match your personality like a glove…err sock? I’m glad that Ozone is revolutionizing the fashion world for our feet! Somebody has to do it well and that they have with their huge line of  designer fashion socks, knee-highs and tights for men, woman, and children alike.

On their site, you will find amusing cartoons, and comical stories which displays just how fun socks should be. And, Ozone has solved the problem of the missing sock! They sell their socks individually as well, to make your singles a happy pair again. You can also join the Sock of the Month Club, and a new pair will be sent to you every month. It works out to about half price for the socks, and even features free shipping!

Discount: Use the code sockmonkeys during checkout on their site to receive a 25% off your total order. This code is good till May 31st, 2009. The only limitation is that it cannot be used to purchase the Sock of the Month Club, everything else is fine!

Happily admiring her Dorothy Shoes

seekairunMy daughters comfort is always first when it comes to picking out  shoes.  She  started walking at nine months old and now she’s pretty close to full on running. So you can see how important it is for me as her mother to try to find the right kind of shoe with her roaming all over the place. As with picking out any shoes, I’m willing to sacrifice style and good looks for shoes that won’t be hurting or putting any strain my daughter’s feet. It was nice to find out that with the shoes from See Kai Run, Smaller, or the Eleven line, I don’t have to sacrifice a thing…style included!

I was able to review the Dorothy sandals from  See Kai Run line for my daughter Melody. I love these shoes! They are quite the distinctive black sandal with adorable little white polka dots fashioned in a fun wave with a white lined trim! Fashion set aside, these shoes are Handcrafted from butter-soft sheepskin leather, with a Flexible rubber sole – healthy for developing feet but sturdy enough for outdoor play, Generous width and wide toe box for plenty of wiggle room, Padded collars for extra comfort, Adjustable Velcro closures make theses shoes easy to get on and ensure a great fit, and breathable leather insole and lining! What more could you possibly ask for in a shoe? …and the answer is you can’t!  These shoes meet the American Podiatric Medical Association’s rigorous standards for foot health and functionality! Yes that’s right, See Kai Run has been awarded the APMA’s prestigious Seal of Acceptance.

See Kai Run offers a wide range of sizes, smaller 0-18 mo, see kai run for kids 6-3 years, and now eleven for ages 3-8 years! It won’t be hard to purchase any pair of these shoes as I can shop in confidence knowing I’m making the best choice, but it will be hard in choosing which pair of shoes to buy. The wide variety of colors and styles make is slightly difficult but that means they certainly have something for everyone!

I support companies that are giving back one hundred percent! It’s important in trying to reach others in what you do and See Kai Run is doing just that. They have a promotion that goes on a few times a year where every pair of shoes that is purchased, another pair is donated to Soles4soles.  This is an organization that delivers shoes to children, and adults who are in need.   In June 2008, “Share a Pair” donation matching event took place and See Kai Run donated over 8000 pairs of shoes to Soles4Souls and the World Association for Children and Parents. In November/December 2008 during another “Share a Pair” matching event, See Kai Run donated over 9700 pairs toSoles4Souls.

I encourage you to check out these wonderful shoes and while you are there, be sure to sign up for their mailing list. You can find the mailing list on the bottom of their page. Trust me, you don’t want to miss out on the great promotions that they have going on throughout the year!

Snorg tees has something for almost everyone and if you can’t find what you are looking for on their main site, check out their partner shop. You can find baseball caps to bibs there.

I read their bio and I was quite amused as it read: Snorg Tees was started in 2004 by a group of friends who decided that they weren’t cut our for real jobs! Since their other option of being international jewel thieves wasn’t going to work out, they decided to go in to the tee-shirt business!

My husband and I were sent the Great Scot and the I Don’t Want To Grow up shirt. These shirts look and feel great! The response I get is great, people crack a smile or ask where I got my shirt! It not only means we have good taste, it means we also are doing our part in helping the team at Snorg tees not have real jobs. LOL

Win It: One lucky winner will win a tee-shirt of their choice from Snorg!

1. To enter, go to Snorg Tees and look around. Then come back here and tell me which shirt you would choose if you won.
