He was so friendly and helped us from the very beginning. The store had basically any size you needed, but only sold a couple of styles. Even though there weren't many styles to choose from, they had the most popular ones. I bought the Black Fine Haircell Boot from Dr. Martens here for 89 Euros and the 8 Eye Derby Boot from Solivar for also 89 Euros. Everything you buy here is affordable and at a reasonable price for these brands. Definitely advise you coming here if you are looking for cheap and popular brand name shoes!

The store has an amazing selection of Solovair and DMs. Worth a visit! Two notes: 1. It's cash only, no card or Apple Pay 2. The hours online don't match the actual store hours ( see notes below) --------------------------- On Yelp, Blackman's listing shows them as open on Tuesday and Thursday through Sunday. I made a trip all the way across London on Tuesday morning only to find that they are not open Tuesday at all. Their hours are Thursday through Saturday 12-5, according to the sign on their shuttered storefront. Honestly, how difficult is it to keep your hours on Yelp up to date? That trip across London wasted 90 minutes.

They, however, sell Stuart Weitzman and Aquatalia shoes and boots which I love. They had a killer after-the-holiday sale and I got an amazing deal on a pair of Stuart Weitzman suede leather over-the-knee boots! (Grrrr!) You may qualify for a VAT refund. Shoe accessories and handbags are also sold at this location. If your size is not available, they can transfer your desired shoes from a nearby location. This British company began operations in 1873. The store is still family owned and operated and they have 43 stores. www.russellandbromley.co.uk.

It oozes upper class richness from its lacquered wooden tables bearing polished leather shoes you imagine are only to look at. Picking one up gingerly and turning it over, I almost dropped it in shock at the price of £395. I'm awfully sorry, but how good can a shoe get? Even if it lasts three times as long as a regular shoe, it's still massively overpriced. Full of loud well-dressed tourists, and pompous looking men in suits offering assistance, I quickly felt out of my league and left. Gorgeous shoes, but unless you're super-rich, stick to Jones. And if you're super-rich, you probably have some anyway!

They took the time to treat me and my family with such care and attention. It was beyond professionalism. They were taking care of you as if we were Family..." immediately Collin had approached me and asked me if I needed help shortly thereafter Nick also chimed in and asked me if we needed anything to please ask. There were more than happy to help us out. I'm not sure what all the negativity with some of these reviews that have been posted recently, but I'll tell you one thing for sure. My experience was nothing but AMAZING!!. These two guys are extremely helpful, knowledgeable and educational about their products. They were a real pleasure to meet with and to talk to and hearing all the stories about the business and how they started working from ground up in the family. We ended up picking out some shoes, ended up with nine pairs of shoes!!! The value for the shoes is amazing people don't realize that the value on these shoes is priceless. You're basically purchasing a(Vintage ) time piece. These are vintage shoes from years back. They have been stored for sale..." so if you're complaining about being taken for a price or paying too much money them, you obviously shouldn't be buying these shoes.." because the majority of these shoes are vintage and that's what you're paying for .iIf not, go somewhere else and shop. This place is outstanding for Doc Martins and amazing handmade English shoes that you can't find anywhere else!! I will definitely be purchasing more from the States and stay away from that cheap mass-produced plastic stuff they sell in the U.S. Thank You again Nick & Collin , for a Wonderful and Amazing educational Experience !!!!

Given her fondness and love for the shoes and boots (we also were married in them), she wanted to find a bonafide pair. She succeeded in finding a gorgeous red pair of boots. I liked their selection so much and was impressed with the discussions from the staff about the history and the craftsmanship, I came back to buy my own pair of shoes. They are magical. Easily located around the block from Camden Train Station where you can catch the Tube, if you love Docs, you need to check out the originator.

The staff are overly friendly and helpful, one woman helped me choose my winter boots last year which my gran bought me for christmas. Whoop. The clientele are generally posh and have money to spend, so it is always really busy. I felt very inclassy in there, but nevermind! It is always fun to pretend. As well as office brand shoes, they have bigger names such as red or dead. This office has some of the more expensive range on offer. A good place to get some shoesies at an affordable price!

On day in november i was looking desperatly for a dress and i entered this shop. I felt in love. It is one of my favourite clothes shop. It is tidy and clean. Clothes are well exposed and you can easly see them all and find your size whatever it is. The staff is friendly and helpful. Fitting rooms are huge! I think they have more than 10, with a really good light and with many mirrors. The maximum of clothes you can try is 10 but if you go during the week time you can try a couple of more. They also have a big space all dedicated to shoes. It's a dream. Prices are super honest and you can choose between two brands. The one from new look -cheeper- and another one more "formal" and a little bit more expensive. I will repeat myself but i love this store

I went here on a Saturday afternoon looking to buy a new pair of character shoes.

The staff in this shop are truly wonderful and the pointe shoe fittings were thorough and well informed. I ended up leaving with a glamorous pair or sparkly ballroom heels that I'll use for Concert performances. A must visit for any dancer.

My friend became a Prima Ballerina with the Royal Ballet..by 15 I was too tall. My first ballet shoes and character shoes came from here. We would order tights and shoes while on tour, in the Med and the Far East, from here and they would be swift to arrive. 'Frederick Freed Ballet' is still going strong - nearly 80 years after the ballet shop was opened by Frederick - it's still pirouetting on. As a pattern-cutter for ballet shoe designers, every week Fred's father would put aside half a sovereign for his son - allowing Fred by the 1930s, to open his own store. Freed's provided the first made-to-measure service and clients including Anna Pavlova and Margot Fonteyn who would wear out her shoes in just two performances.I have had the same pair of pointe shoes since I was 19! Every professional ballet dancer is fussy about their footwear. So much so that each shoe is hand-made to an exact specification. Good things should last the test of time - they should remain and remind us all of what once was and how life used to be - it's important in the ever changing London. 'Freed of London' make 40% of the world's ballet shoes - about 200,000 shoes a year.
