When the Shoe Fits

Too often, good foot health is overlooked as an integral part of our overall well-being.

Ensuring our kids maintain healthy, well-supported feet throughout their growing years is essential to reducing their risk of foot problems in later life.

Ivor Davies, owner and manager of Davies Shoes Mayfield, understands the importance of good quality, well-fitted shoes and ensures precise measurement and fitting are central to every footwear purchase for your child.

Ivor recommends having your children’s feet accurately measured at the start of each school year.

“Children spend over 30 hours a week in their school shoes, so expert fitting is vital,” Ivor said.

As stockists of Clarks Premium school shoe range, Davies Shoes takes care to match each child’s feet to the most suitable style, ensuring correct length, width and maximum growth room without compromising fit and support.

With quality leather uppers and durable soles, Clarks Premium school shoes are hard-wearing whilst allowing feet to breathe. They also come in six different widths as well as half sizes, allowing the expert fitters at Davies Shoes to ‘fine tune’ for the best fit possible.

The staff at Davies Shoes is also highly experienced in fitting ‘challenging feet’ and are well known for stocking back-to-school footwear that can accommodate the very narrow to the extra wide foot. “Shoes that pinch or slip are not providing the support essential for good foot health,” Ivor said.

Clarks Premium school shoes are also well designed to fit orthotics and arch supports where needed.

“Shoes need to be supportive and deep enough at the heel to maximise the efficiency of orthoses,” said Ivor, whose years of experience working closely with podiatrists and physiotherapists have further added to the wonderful reputation of Davies Shoes.

Word-of-mouth recommendations see a constant stream of customers, both familiar and new, visiting the store.

Appreciative of the knowledge and understanding of their footwear needs, successive generations of families continue to shop at Davies Shoes where customers’ needs are always the priority.
