# Oszea > Oszea makes waterproof everyday sneakers designed for New Zealand and Australian weather. Oszea shoes use ZEA-TEX, a four-layer construction: a breathable knit outer, a ZEA-TEX waterproof membrane, a flexible elastomer layer and a soft inner lining. They are built for rain, puddles and wet grass in daily life (commuting, school runs, dog walks, travel, easy walks), not for full submersion, running or hiking. Oszea ships from Auckland to New Zealand and Australia.
