Cotswold shoes are named after one of England’s largest Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, The Cotswolds. We had humble beginnings as a brand, starting off as a range of stylish, comfortable golf shoes. Our outstanding waterproof protection meant our golf shoes became more popular, helping us grow into the must-wear brand for amateur and professional golfers around the world.
Once we launched our lifestyle range, Cotswold became renowned among festival goers for our wellingtons as well as families for our hiking boots. Today, Cotswold has an impressive portfolio of Lifestyle, Hiking, Wellington and Slipper styles suited for the way of life of people living in the beautiful Cotswolds area, for every walk in life.

Aug 06,2021Went in store to purchase running shoes , they did not have style or the size I needed. Assistant said I can order them they will be with you in a couple of days, delivery actually took 8 days

Apr 15,2021Cotswold Ducklington Boots-these boots are extremely comfortable and nice and lightweight for my daughter as we do plenty of walking. The service we received from Cotswold Shoes was excellent and very personal too.

Mar 28,2021I bought a pair of ladies Cotswold Abbeydale WATERPROOF walking boots. The first time I wore them in damp grass my feet were soaked. I took them back to Moles Country store where they refunded me without questioning but did not convince me that they would be making a complaint. Why can they continue getting away with describing them incorrectly?

Feb 04,2021Awful shoes, poor quality. Costs £13 to return boots that clearly have a fault! Very upset with how the customer service agent spoke with me. You think you're getting a bargain but all you're doing is chucking your money down a drain. Hideous boots, poorly made and hideous hideous hideous customer service. I would avoid this scam of a company if i was you!

Feb 03,2021I have been wearing Cotswold boots for about 2 years, they have always been so comfortable which is so important because I do a lot of walking. My 5th pair fell apart inside, not the outer sole, but the inside. I ended up walking on what is akin to a grid. This damaged and hurt my feet. I got another pair, within a week I could feel and see the grid again. I emailed them questioning the deterioration in quality and was told it was nothing to do with them, to take them back to where I bought them. Disgusting customer service!

Jan 23,2021I bought a pair of Cotswolds walking shoes in November from a local shoe shop. By early January the soles had worn badly and were coming apart. The lockdown means that the shoe shop is closed so cannot return them. Cotswolds themselves have been no help.

Jan 01,2021Brought a pair of Brown Quenington commando Brogue shoes size 9. The leather is good quality taking a little time to mould to my feet, but were never uncomfortable. The stitching is accurate and well done. The welted Goodyear commando sole is well stitched and very heavy, giving the shoe a real quality feel. Size wise I’d say they are a generous 9 allowing room for thick socks and in my case orthotics. I’ve Tried on Loakes at almost 3 times the price and whilst these aren’t quite the same quality, at the price they are an absolute bargain. Very very happy with them

Dec 03,2020I'll buck the trend of the good reviews about this company. I was looking for a reasonable pair of waterproof walking shoes. They had a nice cosy sounding name, solid English, and they care about trees, a lot. What they don't do, are decent waterproof walking shoes, or customer service. I chose a pair of size 8 Stonesfield Chestnut shoes because they looked good unlike the trainer style shoes that most people buy - maybe I should have done the same. Firstly, the shoes are made in China, like just about everything else. That dispels the cosy English bit. Secondly, they are the worst fitting pair of shoes I have ever had. Too tight across the widest part of my foot and painfully so. That gets rid of the walking bit. Thirdly, I won't be testing the waterproof bit. These shoes are lethal in the wet. There is no wet grip at all. Something about the sole material and the tread makes them more like iceskates. The first bit of downhill pavement and I nearly went over. The same on wet manhole covers. I have never had such a dangerous pair of shoes. Cotswold aren't interested in telling me why. Oh, and the trees. Cotswold are obsessed with trees and what they are doing to save the planet. Not one mention of the shoes, how to look after them, how to stay upright in the wet. So my star rating is:- Comfort - zero Wet weather use - zero Customer service - zero Value - one star My old steel toecap safety shoes at half the price are ten times better, and a whole lot safer.

Mar 09,2020Cotswold shoes and boots are a top of the range product at an affordable price. A trusted brand with a good reputation. But beware shoe distributor Gardiner Footsure at Quedgely Gloucester who can be unkind to agency workers and be sure to be in a trade union if you take a zero hours contract with them,

Oct 02,2019Shoes lightly scuffed, did not look pristine. Had to buff up a bit. Otherwise OK.

Sep 30,2019Easy to find a suitable pair of shoes. Easy to order. Easy to track order. Shoes arrived quickly. Were exactly as described. As a first time customer got 20 percent discount. Overall a very satisfactory experience with a company that I had not dealt with before.

Dec 27,2021I bought a pair of cotswold leather boots 2 years ago. Water comes into the boots via the seam at the front now and my feet were completely soaking after my walk today. Only thing to do is to bin them a try a better brand.
