On a recent trip to the Kingfisher Centre in Redditch we popped into Humphries as Andrew D G…read more wanted to get some new boots. Its an independent shoe shop and has a lovely traditional feel to it. Its packed to the rafters with an amazing array of different brands, both traditional and contemporary- Clarks, Doc Martens etc. After looking around for a while we were approached by a very friendly member of staff who asked what kind of thing we were looking for. After choosing a pair of Clarks brogue type boots we sat and waited whilst she went to fetch them in the right size. Whilst Andy was trying on the shoes the assistant made pleasant conversation and offered advice on whether the boots he had selected would be as robust as a pair of Doc Martens he also had his eye on. The advice given was honest, practical and worthwhile - am not sure you would get such advice in one of the more mainstream shoe shops. Proces were fair - for example the Doc Martens were £15 cheaper than we had seen online. I also noticed that they sold some very expensive mens footwear (i didnt look at the ladies as i wasnt buying), i cant remember the brand name but the boots were £200+ so am guessing they were some top quality leather boots! The old fashioned feel may put off those who love their shops like Schuh but id highly recommend a look - we both remarked on how good the service was when leaving which i cant remember ever doing in a shoe shop before. A final word covering the Kingfisher Centre as a whole - we tend to go here when we are looking for clothes/shoes etc as its so much cheaper to park than in Birmingham ( we were there for 3+ hours and it cost £2.50. Ive never had a problem finding a parking space either - all good!!

This is a great shoe shop, it is a fairly big store and it very easy to find what you want quickly…read more The staff are friendly, polite and helpful. The quality of the shoes is good and the prices are more than reasonable. They also do a Sugababes range of shoes, which will appeal to the younger shoppers, but some of the shoes are lovely and I purchased a pair last Christmas for the party season for myself and I was pleased with price and quality.

Chiropody is a place that specialises in feet treatment for things like verrucas and corns. There's…read moreno other place like this in Solihull. Whether it's treatment for a senior citizen with painful feat, toe nail cutting, or a young person with biomechanics or injury treatment, prevention or to improve performance, Solihull chiropody have a host of treatments for the whole body. For the services they offer, the prices are reasonable and all the treatments are from local professionals who are fully qualified. The staff are very friendly and helpful and full of tips and advice. Here's a useful one; before you go to bed rub moisturiser into your feet then wear a sock. The sock locks in the moisture so you're feet are soft when you wake up. As well as this the shop had some lovely pairs comfortable of shoes for most occasions (casual, exercise and smart casual.) The selection wasn't big but I guess most of the business is in their treatments. The prices were approximately thirty five pounds per pair and they also have shoe care products for sale.

If you are looking for formal and smart shoes then it's worth paying a visit to Gordon Scott. They…read moreregularly have sales on and the quality of the shoes make it worth the decent price that you pay. The shoe shop has been around for as long as I can remember and their styles have changed but now they currently just sell smart and formal shoes. I think the style of the shop matches what they specialise in but also makes me feel a bit sad every time I visit because it is very dull and boring. It feels as if the shop needs some stylish decor to compliment the shoes and generally make the shop look less bland. On the other hand there aren't many other shops in Solihull that specialise in formal and smart shoes. So maybe they're doing something right? Due to its good location, this is where I come if I need my shoes to help make a good impression. Plus I love the little monkey they have in the window. Overall I think you would have to like Gordon Scott's shoe styles in order to like anything else here.
