Urban walker reminders for mid-year city days

Daniel has updated the mid-year planning talk-through to include pavement-ready threads for city and transit footwear. Urban styles and related notes rotate through the week. If you have a question about what is in, speak with the desk before visiting — we keep the list practical rather than endless.

Saturday we open at 9am and close at 4pm for try-ons and light fit advice. Weekdays remain 9am–6pm; Sunday the store is closed. If you are planning a longer fitting or have a question about timing, email or call ahead and we will help you plan the visit.
