Shoe Shops
 
What local reasonably priced shoes shops are there?

I need to get the boys new shoes, have tried windsors and they had nothing suitable that I liked, same with asda, wasnt too impressed with winfields when i last went (but that was before christmas so will try there again) but am unsure of anywhere else

If anyone knows anywhere please let me know where I can stand a chance of finding some decent but not too expensive shoes for the boys.

Thanks

windsors are crap, take them to the little tommy balls in blackburn, they are leather and do small sizes

i got Reece a pair of ellesse boots for school from there the other day, they where only £9.99

some are seconds but you can also get brand new ones

Where is it? My problem with places like that normally is finding 2 pairs the same style and size but will try anywhere now. They only have a pair of Trainers and wellies that fit at the mo so getting kinda desperate

park in morrisons, it costs a quid.... come out the side entrance near the market and walk up towards the roundabout and its on the corner just after morrisons car park, you might not like the place, they have shoes on strings but its worth a look

to save a quid, park by the vauxhall garage and walk down, not much further. IIRC you get an hour free.

Looking at the website they do a red pair for women.
Get a pair for yourself and send out the message 'Dont mess with Mum' :D

Stead and Simpson, they have been going for years, usually in the bigger towns/cities

they used to be something similar to barratts (sp?) decent shoes but not cheap sh!te

Would be good to suggest to them that they do a 2 for 1 offer for opening week.

What's this lot like ? Didn't they have a branch near you Flashy ?
