Why We’re Obsessed:
Velvet Roast is a grounded essential. It’s smooth and mellow, like your morning flat white — but with a bite. The kind of shoe that looks just as good dressed up with tailored pants as it does worn loose with slouchy socks and denim. There’s power in its simplicity.
How to Style It:
Throw them on with wool trousers, a chunky knit, or your favourite oversized coat. Great with cuffed jeans, earthy tones, or full tonal ‘fits in rich browns and neutrals. Like a good coffee, it makes everything else in your outfit better.
Designed in Melbourne. Handmade in Ukraine. Worn worldwide.
Our shoes tell a story — one you’ll want to walk in.
Important to know
Every pair of our shoes is handmade to order — not mass-produced. This means:
one-of-a-kind, so your shoes might look slightly different from the product photos. That’s part of their charm.
your order takes time – but it’s worth the wait.
eco-conscious – no plastic, no fluff, just what’s needed to protect your shoes and the planet.
📏 Sizing note: Please make sure to measure your feet in centimeters and follow our size guide before ordering.
Care Tips
Mozaïka shoes are made with love – and a little love goes a long way to keep them looking their best.
🧼 Keep them clean
Wipe your shoes gently with a soft, dry cloth after each wear. If needed, use a small amount of leather cleaner – never soap and water.
💦 Avoid water & heat
If your shoes get wet, let them air dry naturally – never near a heater or in direct sunlight, as this can dry out the leather.
🥛 Condition the leather
Every few months, nourish your shoes with a good leather conditioner to keep them soft and prevent cracking.
🏡 Store them well
When not in use, keep your shoes in dust bag or box. You can also stuff them with tissue to help them hold their shape.
⚠️ Handle with care
Avoid rough surfaces and don’t fold or crush the leather – it’s natural and textured, so it deserves a gentle touch.
The Making of Mozaïka
Mozaïka shoes are designed in Melbourne and handmade by our small manufacturing team in Ukraine.
We proudly work with an independent, family-run workshop that shares our values of craftsmanship, sustainability, and slow fashion. Every pair is carefully made using high-quality, responsibly sourced leather, with a focus on durability, comfort, and creativity.
Here are a few things we think you’ll love knowing about our workshop:
Location: Kyiv region, Ukraine
Production volume: Up to 10–15 pairs per day
Team size: Fewer than 10 makers
Working hours: 9am – 5pm, Monday to Friday
Why it matters: Choosing to produce small batches means less waste, better quality, and a truly one-of-a-kind result for you.
Every shoe is touched by real hands, not machines — and every detail matters to us.
Our founder, Sofia, was born in Ukraine and fell in love with the art of shoemaking while studying traditional techniques at a local craftsmanship school. After moving to Australia, she dreamt of building a brand that would share the story of Ukrainian artisanship with the world.
She believes Ukraine holds some of the finest leather craftsmanship in the world — yet it’s often overlooked.
Mozaïka is her way of celebrating that heritage and supporting the makers behind each pair.
This isn’t just another faceless brand. We’re a small, passionate team that genuinely cares — about our craft, our people, and the shoes we send out into the world.
Shipping & Delivery
Because we offer a wide range of designs (with new styles constantly in the works), all our shoes are made to order – unless you spot a rare sample sale or a ready-to-ship pair from our most popular models.
🧵 Production time: 2–4 weeks
This depends on whether we already have your sole size and leather in stock, or if we need to source it specifically for your pair.
🌍 Delivery time: 2–3 weeks
All shoes are shipped directly from our workshop in Ukraine, which can take a little longer than usual due to the current situation (we wish we could speed it up, but it’s out of our hands).
📦 We ship worldwide, and shipping is always free – no matter where you are.
Thank you for supporting handmade – and for your patience while we craft something truly special, just for you.
Returns & Exchanges
We accept returns within 14 days of delivery for store credit, as long as your shoes are unworn, in original condition, and with all tags still attached.
As each pair is made to order, we’re unable to offer refunds for change of mind – but we’ll happily issue store credit once your return is received and approved.
If something’s not quite right with your order, just get in touch at hello@mozaikasteps.com and we’ll take care of it.
📦 Returns are sent to our Melbourne address.
Return shipping is at the buyer’s expense.
