I mentioned an Etnies delivery in our last blog post... and we're pleased to announce that they are now available on the site. There's 12 new styles in total - seven for men and five for women - with some great new designs as well as different colourways of existing shoes.

Sorry for the lack of updates recently - to say we've been busy with the warehouse move would be a huge understatement, but we're now settled in to our new home and things are slowly starting to get back to normal.
The warehouse is now about 90% ready, with just the last few sections of racking to assemble (which should happen this week) and all the shoes are now out of crates and on the shelves, making it much easier to pack the orders. We've also moved the offices over and I now have a very nice view of the Kent countryside!
Anyway, on to the shoes. We've had a few deliveries of new styles in the last week or so. Firstly, I have to tell you about the new range of fitness footwear from Skechers, the Shape-Ups. These revolutionary womens' shoes will help you shape up while you walk, without setting foot in a gym! They are designed to promote weight loss, strengthen the back, firm your calf and buttock muscles, reduce cellulite and tone your thighs, increase your cardio-vascular health, improve your posture and reduce stress on knee and ankle joints. See the video below for details:
Each pair of Shape-Ups comes with a free instructional DVD and booklet, and we can currently offer these shoes at the very low price of £80.98 including P&P!

We've also had two recent deliveries of Converse, which includes both some core Converse and some new designs. Some old favourites that have returned to stock include the Converse Ox in red (mens' sizes) and white and the All Star Hi in red, white, navy and black monochrome.
There's also four new designs of Converse: from left to right, the rockin' Double Upper Guitar ox, fabulous Converse Glitter Hi, skate-style Converse Grimes Ox for men, and the womens' Light Ox with its more feminine style.
Finally, we received a large delivery of Etnies earlier in the week, which I'm just about to start checking off, photographing and adding to the site... watch this space for details.
Sorry for the delay in posting. We've all been bustin a gut to get everything moved to the new warehouse. Things going really well but still a lot of shoes in crates rather than on racking, which is slowing things up picking orders. However, all the team here are doing an outstanding job and orders are still being despatched the same day.
The new warehouse gives us loads more room and we're looking forward to being 100% in our new 'home' soon.
Meantime, we've just had a delivery of some great new Skechers which Lee has now put on the site:-
... Our techy guys have also been tweaking the site to speed things up. We've noticed that as we've added more and more shoes to our categories, some of them were running pretty slow. The tweaking has really sped things up and the site is now performing much better than before.
Just a quick posting to let you know that all the 'legals' have been sorted and our epic warehouse move will be starting next week.
As I mentioned in a previous posting, we're literally just moving across the forecourt to much larger premises. While there's loads of stock and stuff to move over, we're sure we'll be able to keep up our same levels of customer service and order turnaround times during the move.
We should be totally settled in our new 'home' by the end of June. Will try to get some photo's and stuff sorted shortly.
Longer term, being in our new warehouse means we'll be able to hold loads more stock and greatly increase the range of brands and styles on offer.
Over the next couple of weeks, we'll be adding a revolutionary new range of fitness footwear to our site - Shape-Ups from Skechers.
Shape Up while you walk and get in shape without setting foot in a gym with this brand new category from Skechers.
We're an authorised retailer of Shape-Ups and will be one of the very first sites in the UK to get these. As soon as they arrive, you'll find them here:-
Some fantastic new styles of Converse arrived this week. As well as two new Star Players and several double tongue designs, there's a tactile Textile Ox, a style for guitarists and one that will sparkle wherever you go...
From left to right, the Glitter Ox, Guitar Hi, Textile Ox, three Double Tongue designs, two Star Player designs, and Plaid Ox.
Hope you had a good weekend. We've got some great savings on Rockport shoes for a very limited time only. Everything has been reduced and it's already flying out, so check out our Rockport section soon if you want to snap up a Rockport bargain! :-
