About us
Our Green Shoes workshop is nestled in the heart of the Dartmoor countryside, in Moretonhampstead. Our small business is dedicated to crafting handmade shoes that blend traditional techniques with inspiration drawn from Dartmoor’s landscapes.
Our workshop specialises in small-batch productions with minimal waste and no overflowing stockrooms. Each pair of Green Shoes is handmade to order, working against the seasonality of fast fashion that amounts to overproduction and waste.
With a legacy spanning over 40 years, we remain committed to preserving our rich heritage making quality long-lasting resoleable and repairable footwear.
