Groovy2Shoes opened in Stow on the Wold in February and offers a range of children’s shoes from pre walkers to teens. The shop has been very much designed with children and parents in mind, it is easily accessible for prams and buggies and the shop has a funky vibrant feel. The colourful artwork has been provided by local children’s artist Colourtown and to keep siblings and waiting children happy there are indestructible toys, a huge blackboard for the more creative customers and an integrated train set. For parents there are comfortable seating areas, a water dispenser, as well as magazines and newspapers for those times when a short wait is required.

Our feet are one of the most important parts of our body and walk more than 115,000 miles in an average lifetime, but we mistreat them in so many ways. Good fitting shoes in childhood are so important as a child’s foot is not fully developed until around 18 years of age.  The Children’s Foot Health Register in the UK suggests that up to 70% of foot problems in later life could be related to poor fitting shoes in childhood.

Beverly Clough the owner and qualified shoe fitter is passionate about promoting foot health and providing a traditional, high quality fitting service within a bright modern and family friendly environment.

Groovy2Shoes is located on Sheep Street in Stow on the Wold for more information please contact enquiries@groovy2shoes.co.uk or visit the website www.groovy2shoes.co.uk
