Situated in Strutton Ground, this shop is an institution, well known to the Civil Servants and MPs who frequent the area, as well as builders and more down-to-earth types.
Don't be put off by the title: this no-frills shop sells classic, timeless styles (think Brogues and Oxfords) by some top quality brands, such as Loake, as well as workwear, including Dr Martens (though I personally think the quality of 'docs' has gone down-hill of late - don't worry, that have other brands).
The shoes aren't seconds either, so the discount is genuine.
Strutton Ground itself is always worth a look - it's an odd survivor, with the feel of a small, slightly down-at-heel town centre street, right off busy Victoria Street. There's a small market there most days. read more
