Training
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.

Buying childrens shoes online
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.
School shoe lists

Order by phone
Fitted school shoes are not available to order online, however if you are certain of the style, size and fitting you require, you can order by phone. For telesales, dial 01622 752 349.
