lovelace Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Now that I think about it, I haven't been in a shoe shop for decades. They must still exist but I don't remember noticing one for years. Do the assistants still bring you a few boxes to try ? I remember Dolcis , Timpsons and Langtons at Hillsborough. Twenty nine and eleven was the average price for ladies' shoes, nine and eleven for a pair of plimsolls. One pair of shoes had to do for everything , so your dad would mend them or you had to put a piece of cardboard in them. No trainers then, in fact I've never owned a pair.

Pyrotequila Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 There are loads of shoe shops around 🤔 Wynsors, Skechers, Clarks, Pavers, Shoezone... then there's the shoe sections in shops such as JD Sports or Sports Direct. You can still ask for different sizes to try on too 🤷♂️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a Skechers fan personally, the memory foam comfort has spoiled me for other shoes now 😂 Although recently I've had issues trying to find suitable ones in my size, so I may have to seek out alternatives next time my trainers fall apart. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovelace Posted August 3, 2023 Author Share Posted August 3, 2023 I didn't know Skechers had an actual shop, thought it was just a brand. Looks like I need to get out more .......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Dolcis and Ravel on Fargate, and Saxone on High Street. All your 80s white stiletto and slingback needs catered for. And Rebina in the Castle Market for the pointy buckled flats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micky D Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 I always get my shoes from Charles Clinkard in Meadowhall and buy online for trainers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
