Our story
Founded in 1960 by Florence O’Dwyer in Midleton, the business has grown into a third-generation company led by David O’Dwyer, with stores across Cork, Kilkenny, Tipperary, and Waterford.
While our roots are in physical retail, we have also developed a strong online business, allowing customers across Ireland to access our collections with the same level of service and care you would expect in-store.
Our approach to footwear
We focus on shoes that combine style with all-day comfort — not just what looks good, but what feels right to wear.
Our collections feature leading brands such as Gabor, Rieker, Ara, Wonders, Hispanitas, Marco Moreo, and Paul Green, with many styles sourced from Italy, Spain, Portugal, and Germany.
Rather than overwhelming you with choice, we carefully select ranges that reflect what our customers actually want — wearable fashion, quality materials, and reliable fit.
Shopping with us online
Our online store is an extension of our in-store experience.
Customers across Ireland can shop our collections with confidence, supported by a user-friendly website, fast delivery, and a straightforward returns process.
Reason for our online shoe store
We often had customers visiting our stores in Cork, Kilkenny, Tipperary and Waterford who would ask us if they could buy shoes online from us.
The demand for our shoes to be available on our online store gave us the push to start developing our business further and into the online market. We were going to start offering a service to sell shoes online in Ireland so those around the country could have access to the shoes we sold.
Our range consists of brands that would be considered some of the best and affordable designers you can find in Ireland. Our online store would bring these brands to everyone across the country.
Our shoe selection
Since we started in 1960 our goal was to sell high quality, designer shoes across Ireland. Being one step ahead of our competitors helped us keep on top of the latest fashion trends and we never faultered when taking risks with new designs and styles.
Designer shoes can be difficult to find online which is why we wanted to develop this user friendly online store. We wanted to make the process of buying shoes online enjoyable for you.
We offer all the latest catwalk trends including the largest range of Mezlan shoes in Ireland, as we design and distribute Mezlan shoes throughout Ireland.
