I discovered Guat Shoes at The Lambeth Show in Brockwell Park. I have wide feet with a high instep…read moreso comfortable shoes were always hard to locate. They drew around my feet and discussed te height of heel I found comfortable. Then the choice of style and colour. I had never known that before so I chose black. When the shoes arrived they reminded me of the smell of a new car. They fitted and I didn't need to wear them in with leather expander. I enjoyed walking in them. I received notices to inform me that Guat Shoes would be at The Dulwich Show with pictures of a wider choice of styles. Then I was adventureous with the range of colours and ordered a purple boot. I was advised not to but I did not understand feet like Guat shoes. The boots were comfortable to wear but not to walk in. So I realised Guat shoes knew my feet better than myself. Then I ordered white shoes and was sent leather samples to choose from. I was able to mix and match my shoes to my outfit. As I tend to scuff my toes on London Underground stairs I found polishing coloured leather was not as effective as polishing black so I ordered black toes with a coloured body. So practical the shoes looked like new after applying scuff cote. Being creative I made silver profiles to attach to my laces for special occasions. With a safety chain to avoid any mishaps. Guat shoes can be personalised to your feet and your style. To be honest your first pair does seem expensive but you save yourself the discomfort of painful tight shoes. The stress and expense of trekking around shoe shops where nothing fits properly. Maybe the shoe that hundreds have stretched trying it on fits but the other is too tight scenario is avoided. In fact with Guat Shoes nobody else has worn your shoes so no risk of foot infections. To be honest Guat shoes are so comfortable you forget your school years of being dragged around shoe shops for something that fits. All you have to do is get someone to draw around your feet, measure your toe bone and instep provide a cheque or card and wait for the especial aroma of new leather. Guat shoes really put your feet first.

About 12 years ago I came across GUAT shoes at the Sidmouth Folk Festival and my wife bought a pair…read moreof sandals. I have trouble getting shoes to fit 'off the peg' so vaguely enquired about having some made. I got a pair of plain black shoes, took about six weeks, they fitted perfectly and despite being worn at least a couple of times a week since and being resoled once still look almost new. I ordered another pair in a different style a few years ago, they had my size and shape still, those fit straight off too and still look like new despite being worn for work every time the other pair aren't. yes they sound expensive at around £100.00 a pair but I've had 12 years so far and they're still fine. previously I would have had a pair of not very comfortable shoes at about £40+ each, each year - simple sums say they've saved me 2 or 300 pounds. By the way the wife's sandals got worn until they fell to pieces and we're going to order new tomorrow.

I have to like this store. LOVE it…read more Did a bit of power shopping today. Yesterday, I struck out at Clarks in Meadowhall and was a bit disappointed as Clarks are so cheap in the UK, especially with the pound to dollar exchange rate. I was in and out of this store in about 10 minutes. Found my size, found a wonderful pair of shoes and a nice pair of boots. Decided to buy the shoes for 30 pounds and hold off on the boots. They have lots of discounted shoes of all of your favorite brand names. The only problem is that they ONLY accept credit cards with chips in them, i.e. the US cards need swiping and this store won't take them. Luckily, I had cash.

Cheap and cheerful show warehouse…read more It has its own large car park, which is good as its a little way out of the shopping area of hanley. There is plenty of space in the shop for people to browse, try the shoes on and also walk around to check the comfort of the shoes. I think this is a lot better than some shoe stores where you barely have room to browse, let alone comfortably try on a pair. Always seems clean, although the smell of plastic in the shoes can sometimes be a little overpowering. The staff i've been served by have always been polite and fairly quick at serving, and i've never really noticed large queues even when shopping on a saturday.

Wynsor has been around for years and i think will stay around for more year to come …read more This shoe shop is massive and has massive aisles, they sell shoes for all occations for everyone and at low prices . The staff there are helpful and polite and are always at hand . Wynsors have there own big carpark and its can get busy the ques are never big as the staff are quick servers . The only problem is i think icould do with moving near to the other shops to gain more business and to make it alot easier for those who are shopping in hanley.
