Shoe store in Leeds

“I recently visited Loake in Leeds to purchase some dress shoes for my friends wedding. This was my first time purchasing shoes from Loake and I will definitely be returning in the future. After getting over the shock of my small shoe size (usually size 9, which in Loake size translates to a 7), I tried on a lovely pair of Buckingham shoes and my bruised ego was instantly restored. The service from Matt was impeccable throughout, lending some useful fashion advice in addition to helping me choose a suitable shoe. The store was quite quiet when I attended, so I also got to chat with Morgan whose character added to the experience. Lovely pair of chaps, cannot recommend their service enough!”

“What a fantastic service, ordered some shoes on Saturday afternoon and they arrived on Monday at lunchtime, competitive price and beautifully packed.”

“Incredible service, very attentive staff couldn’t be more helpful, we visit our two local slaters often but this branch has got to be the best one we have visited to date. Couldn’t remember their names but a young lad and a gentleman helped so much and ordered my partners shoes directly from the warehouse for us. Will take the trip to come back here in future.”

“Went in today with my husband to look for an electric bike. Spoke to a fabulous guy who had brilliant knowledge on the range of bikes available and welcomed our number of questions! Great member of the team and was worthy of a great review! We didn't catch his name (tall, young lad) but please let him know how brilliant he was!”

“Ordered Adidas tracksuit top and trainers online, arrived 2 days later and great products. Top was a tad big so dropped it back in at shop and was exchanged straight away no fuss. Great customer service and some nice gear in the shop for you skaters. Give these guys a go :-)”

“I visited this store to purchase a new pair of trainers as I wanted to increase my running distance. I was firstly met by Amy - one of the staff members who was super helpful and spent around an hour helping me try on various pairs of shoes. She put me on the treadmill and did a gait analysis which uncovered a slight imbalance in my feet. This made me very nervous but Amy reassured me that this is common and after a few more try ons found a perfect pair of trainers for me - New Balance 880. I was very sceptical about spending so much money at first but my new trainers have been perfect, and I'm now much more comfortable with running longer distances. The whole experience was friendly, warm, and welcoming and I will definitely be visiting this store again for my next pair of running shoes. Thank you Amy and the rest of the staff at Up & Running Leeds Store”

“Great store, was helped by Sam who helped me pick the right shoe for me. Very friendly and knowledgeable”

“The staff who work here are lovely and really helpful! They helped me find a new pair of shoes which were on sale - definitely recommend coming in store rather than going online :)”

“We went to this store for their black Friday sale and although the sale was amazing, Madz' service was even better! She helped me with shoes for myself, and then gave advice and helped my partner too! We both left with new shoes and smiles. Thank you!”

“Helder is an absolute superstar! If you’re in the market for a suit, make sure you find Helder first. I came in looking for a suit for my wedding, and he made the whole process incredibly smooth and stress-free. He offered a great selection of stylish, relevant options and even suggested choices that saved me both money and my marriage! Hands down, this was some of the best customer service I’ve ever experienced. I couldn’t recommend him more highly.”

“Brilliant gait analysis experience with Mike. He was super friendly, knowledgable and took time to explain the process and trainer options. Came away with some perfect trainers I can’t wait to use. Thank you for all your help!”

“Having been to the Leeds store to make a purchase, I asked a member of staff whether they had any spare shoe boxes I might have - for several years I have been sending welfare parcels to British troops in Afghanistan and was in need of more boxes. Over the past few years of visiting the shop to collect these shoe boxes, I have found all the staff to be extremely kind, courteous, helpful and very friendly. Their dealings with customers are always of the highest standard, and I look forward to my visits as it's always a pleasure to chat with them when they are not dealing with customers.”

“Sister bought a fantastic pair of shoes from this lovely independent. Will be back to buy some of my own when my shoe fund replenishes :)”

“Been skating with my friends and absolutely loved it and I was recommended by my friends to visit MJ Sports. The staff explained all the different brands and fittings. The person who was looking after me (didn't get his name) was great and help me find entry level skates and will within my budget! I went for the CCM FT860 and they heat moulded my skates and then sharpen the skates for me.”

“Just had such a wonderful experience with a lovely lady at hopscotch Horsforth! She really listened and helped me find some sandals and shoes for my little boy! The best hopscotch shop out of all them!”

“Ruth was fantastic today. Traditionally I would go to a high street store but visited Hopscotch today after a poor fitting at C's. Ruth was attentive and found what we were looking for the first time. She really looked after us and we were in and out with new school shoes on my daughter's feet within 30 minutes. Never again will I go to a high street chain. Local all the way! Thanks Ruth”

“Fantastic experience getting my daughters shoes fitted for the first time!! The staff are professional but friendly and approachable. Customer service went above and beyond! Will not go anywhere else for her shoes in the future, highly recommended it!!”

“Great service from Dave, couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Nothing was too much trouble. Will be back.”

“I was unsure at first as I’ve never purchased from this company before. However, when the products arrived they are fantastic quality. Fast delivery and excellent customer service too. I will be coming back, thank you”

“My first visit & its an excellent store good value for money & was well served by a Girl assistant regarding my disability im totally deaf but Girl was aware”

“28.11.25 - I collected the new number plates I had ordered today after someone had kindly pulled them off and left them on the road outside my house. A neighbour had glued them back on for me with "no nails" and they were cracked, so it was difficult for the young men who served me to use these old plates to measure up the new ones (and get the screws in the right place). I said they could glue them on if it was easier but they said no, they would try to screw them on first, as this makes them more secure. The store was really busy, with a constant queue (hence having to swap this job between them), but they remained calm, professional and helpful. I hope these two young men are being paid a decent wage, as they are a credit to Halfords. I will definitely go back to this store if I need help in future.”

“My husband needed some sport shoes, we found a great pair for an extremely good price, saved lots of money. Brilliant service, girls good fun, made our shopping day. Thank-you we will be back.”

“First time in here and very nice shop with friendly staff. Different clothes from the mainstream and we'll worth a look. Over two floors, nice shirts and t shirts, in fact most things here are nice.”

“We have gone to Hopscotch for the past few years for the kids' school shoes. The staff are always very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The shoes are very good quality, very durable. My older daughter is wearing a pair into her second year now.”

“Was very pleased with the help I received in finding and choosing the squash gear I needed. I simply asked a young lady called Khia and she helped me find everything. She is an excellent ambassador for the Nike store. Thank you Khia. Good Nike gear too. Very pleased.”

“Great service, I think the lady who helped us was called Cheryl, she was very friendly talking ti my daughter about what shoes she likes and brought her lots to try on. The ones she liked were too big so she brought us insoles to try them with. Really pleasant experience.”

“A good place for decent footware, at a cheaper price. They stock brand names too. Got what we needed. Staff were very helpful.”

“really nice staff, decent priced shoes and good quality shoes for formal stuff”

“Excellent experience and first class customer service from Angela. I arrived looking for ladies size 42 and left with 2 pairs of boots in 40 and 41! Angela's knowledge of the sizing between brands and her empathy made the whole visit a real treat. Thanks”
