Green Shoes
As a small team we will continue to take all the neccesary precautions to keep our customers and ourselves safe. More than ever Green Shoes is a radical shoemaking business - we make the shoes here in Devon on a small scale ensuring the low environmental impact of making our long lasting and repairable footwear.

The shoes are made by hand with skill and dedication learnt and passed on over decades. The beauty of a pair of hand-made Green Shoes is that your whole body feels different when you step into them: more in touch with the earth, more relaxed, more yourself.
Services
Green Shoes was started in 1981 in Totnes Devon by a group of young feminist women who were passionate about hand making strong, beautiful shoes that would last for years. Green Shoes has always been a collective and collaborative workplace run by women. Ethical production remains at the heart of our business philosophy.

Ingredients: Pumice olive oil, water, Coconut oil, Sunflower oil, Beeswax, Shea butter, Peppermint oil, Lemon oil, Lavender oil.
We make ethical shoes that not only look terrific, but feel fantastic too. Green Shoes give you confident style, colour and comfort, whatever the season.

Shoes and boots are great all hand made, it's not a shop front as you might expect,just a doorway,at the moment there is scaffolding outside,but they are open and have a shop up stairs,very helpful they also run work shops.

Amazing shoes! We have been on 2 of their courses now and been so impressed with the expertise, welcome, and amazing shoes. It's a wonderful experience and the shoes I made about 6 or 7 years ago (and wear all the time)are still going strong! They encorporated all my mad ideas to end up with some truly unique boots! Thank you all.

They kindly made us a vegan leather buckle lead to go with the greyhound collar we also purchased. Great communication and made sure we were totally happy with the end product. It's just what we wanted, thank you!

I have wide feet with bunions. My new emerald green shoes with space for my orthotic are so very comfortable, they feel quite different to other shoes I have warn. I love them and their vibrant colour.

Fabulous shoes and an equally fabulous team. I had the pleasure of doing a shoe making workshop at Green Shoes and could not recommend it highly enough. A really fun, insightful and rewarding experience in itself, with the bonus of having a custom fit pair of shoes at the end!

Just got a pair of their signature walking boots (made by Emily) and they are incredible; likely the best shoes/boots I've ever had in my life! Thank you Green Shoes UK

Really helpful & looks like they can make boots for my very non standard feet. That is such a rare event for people with odd sized feet like me, that it makes me have faith in a world that only wants you to conform. Waiting excitedly for my 1st fitting.

Saw the shoes and a flyer in Central Cafe, so found the shop to have a look. Really helpful lady had one pair of shoes that fitted my odd feet, so splashed out and bought them there and then. Left my old shoes in her bin, and have been in my new ones, walking around all afternoon. So comfy. Thank you =D

Have bought many pairs of shoes from Green Shoes for myself and other members of the family and they last forever. Always beautifully made and wonderfully comfortable - I don't get shoes from anywhere else now. They are also really good at made to measure shoes for those with weird shaped feet!
Not only great products but lovely staff, too. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

I've had shoes made for me here for well over 25 years and each pair has been lovely! Now I have to have them specially made for me because my feet are so swollen & crooked now and I have special insoles to accommodate too. But I'm sure they'll be just as comfy on my feet as ever.
