 OUR ANGULUS SELECTION

 

If you are new to Angulus, we suggest you take a look at their incredible Winter boots. Available in styles for toddlers all the way through to teens and women. Designed to take you through the season, keeping your feet cosy and warm whatever the weather. 

What we love about our Winter boot selection is that no matter the style, you can be guaranteed a great pair of footwear that has been beautifully made, looks incredible and more importantly, performs how you need them to, for wherever you need to go. Our favourite styles for Winter are those with natural and breathable wool linings. These boots offer unparalleled warmth through the coldest of months. They can be worn with cotton socks in the Autumn months and then wool socks through the Winter. Boots that also have a TEX lining offer waterproofing as well. These have always been our most loved family footwear and when the temperature drops, we know that our children's feet will stay warm and dry, be it walking to school, playing in the forest or the occasional snow day. So it's no surprise we have been reaching for them ourselves as well. 

 

Founded in Copenhagen, Angulus began as a humble cobbler's shop and has since evolved into a legacy cherished by families worldwide. The company's commitment to healthy foot development dates back to 1928, when Founder Willy Madsen revolutionised the industry with foot-formed shoes designed in collaboration with medical professionals.

Today, Angulus continues to uphold its heritage while embracing innovation. Each pair of Angulus shoes undergoes an impressive 48-60 steps of handcrafted precision, ensuring not only stunning aesthetics but also unparalleled comfort. They offer footwear for every member of the family, and with a range of sizes and styles designed to accommodate every foot shape, their shoes provide the perfect combination of fit and support for any occasion.

At MamaOwl, we carefully curate brands that align with our ethos of sustainability, quality, and responsibility. And Angulus is a brand that very much fits these criteria.

Most notably, Angulus understands the importance of footwear that follows the natural form of the foot, especially for fast-growing babies and children. Their foot-formed shoes provide ample room for natural movement, promoting healthy foot development and ensuring little ones' comfort with each step. We strongly care about the development of growing feet and value Angulus' dedication to making exceptional footwear.

Angulus believes that shoes should cater to all feet, recognising that each foot is unique in shape and size. With an unwavering commitment to providing the perfect fit for everyone, Angulus works with numerous different shoe lasts each season. These shoe lasts serve as the foundational element for all Angulus footwear designs, ensuring that every pair meets different needs while providing optimal comfort and support.

During Spring and Summer, we love Angulus' Iconic Fisherman sandals for their ease and versatility when the warmer months finally come along. We specifically select closed-toe styles to ensure good protection for precious young feet. Also, being great quality transitional footwear, they can either be worn with or without socks, meaning they will have a much longer season of wear for you and your family, taking you all the way through to early Autumn. The Autumn Winter collection is unparalleled, featuring TEX waterproof technology and breathable woollen linings for ultimate comfort and protection during colder weather. My children use Angulus' wool lined TEX Lace boots in the deep snows of Denmark, where they keep their feet warm and dry all day long. Their versatility extends beyond outdoor countryside adventures, as these boots are smart enough for city wear when we visit Copenhagen also -making them a truly versatile option that is really suited to our lifestyle.

Whether it's braving the elements or enjoying indoor cosiness, Angulus ensures that every step is embraced with warmth and style. When you choose Angulus, you're not just buying shoes—you're investing in generations of comfort, great design, and conscious responsibility. Join us in exploring a legacy of craftsmanship and care with Angulus—where every step is a testament to quality and commitment.
