Fresh Kicks, Fresh Produce: Our Summer at the UHills Farmers Market

There’s something about a summer farmers market that just feels right. The smell of peaches in the air, kids with sticky fingers from fresh-baked treats, and the hum of a community coming together. This year, Oobi joined the fun with our pop-ups at the UHills Farmers Market in Denver—and it’s quickly become one of our favorite parts of the season.

On a few Saturdays, we’ve been setting up our little corner of color among the rows of local farmers and makers. There’s no better place to share Oobi than in a space filled with families who care about quality, connection, and supporting local businesses. We’ve loved meeting parents, grandparents, and tiny sneaker-wearers-in-training, talking all things shoes, play, and the joy of being a kid.

One of the best parts? Seeing kids try on their first pair of Oobis right there on the spot. Some run straight to the bouncy house to “test drive,” others carefully inspect their new kicks like little shoe critics. (Five stars, every time.)

For us, the market isn’t just about selling shoes—it’s about building a community of parents who want their kids to explore freely and safely. That’s why we designed Oobi with built-in AirTag pockets: so adventures can be wild and you can still have peace of mind.

If you’re in Denver, come say hi! Grab a coffee, a loaf of sourdough, and swing by our booth for a chat. You’ll find us under the Oobi banner, right next to the fresh produce and happy chaos of the market.

Here’s to fresh kicks, fresh air, and a summer full of little adventures. See you at UHills!
