Everywhere you look in Jones Bootmaker, you can see leather. That's what they do, you see…read more Aside from stocking famous brands like Cat and Ted Baker, this serious shoe shop stocks a massive selection of leather shoes and boots. In fact, it's so much about the leather that they only carry four or five trainers for boys. Jones Bootmaker also has a great range of shoe care products behind the counter. If you want to tenderly care for your shoes then they have brushes, polishes and shoe horns. Who would ever want to buy a wooden thing shaped like a foot that you put in a shoe to help it keep its shape? Is this the kind of thing a boy will never understand?

I walked in here out of sheer desperation to find plain black shoes when I used to work at the…read moreOdeon. I mean desperation because even Primark didn't have them! Other than that, I would have never entered this store! It is stark and looks like a store room full of shoe boxes. Why wouldn't someone display what they have! Especially in a shoe store! I don't get such logic. It has an eerie atmosphere which makes you want to leave the moment you enter. The place smells of shoes. I know that it's a shoe store, but don't shops smell nice? And hence we stick around longer? But nope, Deichman decided to go for the 'I don't care-I'm your shoe store, take whatever you can find' attitude! Anyhow, they did have the black pair of shoes I wanted for £8 and I was happy. Other than that, it is going to remain a room full of shoe boxes in my head!

One glance at their confused window displays reinforces that Moda In Pelle fall firmly into the latter camp. There's no attempt to woo new customers with eye-catching graphics or cool displays, just simple rows of heels and sparkly shoes on the bottom row, ankle boots on the middle row and knee high leather, suede and jewelled boots on the top two rows. This might work if only some of the shoes and boots in the window weren't so damn ugly! Inside the shop is just as bad with radically different styles rubbing soles next to each other. I actually spotted a fabulous pair of white boots with tasteful silver studs but I wasn't going to shell out £120 on them when they were next to boots I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy! To quote teachers across the world: Must Try Harder!

You'll notice a lot of my reviews are focussing on sales at the moment... well, tis the season, and…read moreon (at the time of typing) this, the Monday that is supposed to be the most depressing Monday of the year (first bills after the festive period and what-not), what better to bring cheer to yourself (girls) or any female you know than a nice pair of footpieces. Yes, there is nothing that quite lifts the spirit like a new pair of shoes, and I have to say, Moda in Pelle has one of the best sales I've seen in a long time. A shy and retiring little boutique amongst the smaller Market Street shops, this branch just off St Ann's Square is a right little gem. And as for those reductions, well, you can't argue with a stunning pair of bright red wedge sandals reduced from £80 to £25. Yes, your eyes aren't deceiving you, and it'd be rude not to grab them - after all, thinking of that summer holiday is probably keeping you going right now... I've always found the staff in Moda in Pelle very friendly and helpful, and they give you space to browse. There's a great range of shoes on offer too, from the aforementioned wedges (and plenty of them... I love my summer wedges, so this is a must for me) to Ugg-esque Edhas and Dais and biker boots, fancy courts and pretty pumps to a lovely variety of handbags. To me it feels like a nice little halfway point between the ostentatious self-worth of Kurt Geiger and the cheerful high street demeanour of Office and Faith. If you're after a little treat in the sale, don't miss this one out.

On the one occasion I wanted to go upstairs I had a pram & I was told there was nowhere to leave it so I couldn't go upstairs. Very poor customer service & I find the staff not at all helpful. Despite having a good choice of shoes I wouldn't visit here again due to the staff. On another occasion I have been in the staff were stood talking to each other & didn't acknowledge any of the customers in the shop. So sadly, despite the good choice of shoes I can only award it 1 star as I wouldn't recommend it.

Thumping, massive bass is not what I want to listen to whilst I'm trying to find a new pair of boring black shoes for work. I wasn't going to stay long in here. Shoebox does have a great, vast range of discount shoes. There are no famous brands on offer but if you're looking to save a bit of money then they might have something for you. They've got much more shoes for the ladies though, if you're into strappy, tacky shoes. Again, at really cheap prices. Go for it.

It sells a vast array of beautifully decorated shoes, saris and the like. Even though the website has a catalogue of only shoes and accessories, in the shop itself most of the space is taken up by clothes. Chaal is actually a manufacturing company as well as a shop so they are selling their own products. Its been around for about 20 years. Expect to pay around £25- £50 for a pair of shoes, be if for men or women, and accessories (mainly bags) for around £15. They also do bridal items and a kids selection.

It is very different from any of the City Centre stores and it is unique in its kind.
