Back to school at The Golden Boot

At The Golden Boot we pride ourselves on good quality service and fitting knowledge. We realise the importance of a well fitted shoe and so all of our team members are expertly trained to advise you on fit and foot care. As well as a comprehensive training course in house, all members of staff are required to receive regular additional training from Clarks and Startrite. We also have access to several local podiatrist clinics that allow our staff to complete clinic visits to increase their knowledge of foot health. We are a proud associate of The Society of Shoe Fitters with 8 members of the guild on our staff. If you are interested in foot health, please see The Healthy Feet Guide.

If your child has specific requirements, don’t hesitate to contact us prior to your visit. Please phone 01622 752349.

The Golden Boot Loyalty Card system is really easy to join and the earlier you start the more savings you make. The discount card can be used in all departments and you can get up to 15% off a full price pair of shoes. Each purchase is recorded and discounts are given on every fifth pair bought. Just ask a member of staff and they will happily open a loyalty card for you.

*loyalty cards are not available to use on our online store at present.

Waiting times will be minimal this back to school. We have 30 fully trained fitters to ensure we serve you super efficiently.

At The Golden Boot we are happy to recycle your old shoes. Just bring in your old shoes and depending on the quality, they will either be sent on to a child from the third world or broken down to use the materials again.

The first pair of shoes are a vital step to the healthy development of tiny toes and with over 200 years experience of children’s shoes we know just how to make your first fitting a really special occasion for you to treasure forever.
Visit our first shoe page for more information.

Our non fitted brands (Branded products that are not made in different width fittings) are available to buy online. But we choose not to sell Clarks and Startrite shoes online as we feel that it is very important to have these products correctly fitted in store by one of our expertly trained fitters.
You are however able to browse the Clarks and Startrite ranges and reserve the product to be fitted and collected in store with no obligation to buy. You can also order over the phone if you know the exact size and fit required.
