Have just purchased a pair of Loake’s online from Bradshaw & Lloyd and had fantastic service. Not only were they the best price around but they were very helpful and quick to respond to a few... queries. The shoes arrived in a couple of days and I couldn’t be happier. Will definitely return and would recommend to everyoneread more

I visited Bradshaw and Lloyd this week as I thought that the time had come to buy some proper boots that are built to last.I was served by the owner, Richard De Winter, who was extremely helpful in... explaining the processes involved in making proper boots. It's clear that he's extremely knowledgable and was extremely patient in helping me try on a number of different boots.I had reason to email a couple of days later and he replied courteously and promptly. And on my second visit I was assisted by his son who was equally as understanding and patient. I hope I wasn't too indecisive or difficult a customer? Either way, their service was second to none.All in all, I don't understand why I hadn't discovered this little gem of a shop much earlier?If you want to have your shoes fitted by experts and you want to buy some top quality footwear, this is probably the best place to visit outside London. In fact, it's probably just the best place to visit.read more

Having been into my office a scant half dozen times in the last year, I literally haven't been past a decent shoe shop in months, so what a godsend finding this place has been. Exceedingly helpful.

Bradshaw and Lloyd provided stellar service as I bought shoes to be shipped to me in the USA. I was a little concerned in doing business from afar without seeing a lot of reviews and called them... up. Richard was friendly, helpful and very customer service oriented.Unless you are familiar with the fit of a particular maker, I highly recommend you follow the instructions on the site regarding foot measurements if you are buying remotely. This sort of remote assistance is invaluable. The shoes fit well, but ultimately the style did not suit me. On return, the shoes were accepted without question and my credit card refunded without my asking!Overall, an excellent customer experience and I will definitely do my on-line shopping for fine English men's wear with Bradshaw and Lloyd in the future!Thank you Richardread more
