A bit about us

Ron and Kate Welcome you to our website and to our shop should you visit us personally. We purchased our shoe shop in Wendover, a small, pretty town nestling at the bottom of the Chiltern Hills a few miles from Aylesbury about six years ago. We both have retail management experience, much of it in footwear. Though new to running our own business, what does come naturally to us is our desire to give our customers, genuine, helpful advice and service. We try to know our products well, where they come from, how they are made, how they fit and how to care for them. If we do not have an answer we will try to find one.

We source our collection of Womens and Mens shoes from some well known makes as well as ones you may not know so well. We always stock a selection from Gabor, Ara and Josef Seibel that are German brands. Other popular brands include Van Dal from the UK and Riva and HB from Italy. This autumn we will be ranging boots from Khrio from Italy.  We feature mens shoes from Loake, Josef Seibel and Rockport. We seek to buy an interesting and varied range that will offer style and fashion but ultimately fit and comfort that you can rely on so you really enjoy your shoes fully. With an individual collection of shoes and a personal service we set ourselvs apart from the regular high street stores.

Our shop has a long history of selling shoes, we do know it was a shoe shop shortly after the first World War. In those days it would have been a traditional  "Cobblers" both selling and repairing shoes. It has changed ownership many times over the years, at one time owned by Ivatts & Sons, a respected family business that existed in Aylesbury for a very long time. Indeed it was only shortly after aquiring the business did we realise this, Ron's first job was with this very same company in Aylesbury some twenty five years earlier when Ivatts had long since left the Wendover premises. Therefore, for us it has always felt like the perfect place to be, serving the local people and many people from well beyond. Thanks for visiting us online.
