About Jake Shoes

Independently owned, family run company, offering you a unique choice of shoes from popular brands and lesser known styles that you won’t see anywhere else.

Jake Shoes Description

Ours is the story of a hairdresser with an eye for good shoes.

In the 70’s Jake’s mum owned a hairdressing salon. She loved shoes and used to buy hers in London. Her customers regularly complemented her on them so, on one trip, she visited the East End wholesalers, brought a few pairs back and put them in the salon window to see what happened. She sold out in a couple of days.

“I remember the platform boots in your mum’s hairdressing window. Everyone wanted a pair! ” (Pearl)

Eventually she found a new shop around the corner and opened Jake in 1975, selling the salon to one of the girls who worked for her. She named the business after her son, Jake; the man behind Jake Shoes as you know it today.

Jake worked in the shop as soon as he could walk and talk. Customers used to laugh when he offered to get them shoes when he was little but they didn’t put him off. Being on the shop floor and meeting customers is still one of Jake’s favourite things about his job.

Shoes are Jake’s life. He loves to buy unusual shoes; sourcing products from around the world to bring you a selection of styles that you won’t see anywhere else.

Jake's certainly got that Friday feeling, even if he is trying to camouflage himself against Stockport's living wall.

Rumour has it, it's going to be over 20 degrees tomorrow, just when we've packed our summer shoes away.
How about these gorgeous yellow boots from The Art Company, which will bring a ray of sunshine to even the dullest Autumn days?

New from Dr. Martens this season are the Flloyd boots.
The relaxed chukka style has a softer feel than the docs we're used to, making these Jake's current choice for every day casual.

She fell in love and finally she bought them. How amazing does Chloe look in Dr. Martens Pascal Glitter Boots?
After all, we could all benefit from a bit of glitter now and then. #whatjakeswearing

Are you ready for the new season Moon Boots?
With optional red laces, the Monaco Low Boots in white will look great when the temperature falls.

There's a chill in the air but the sunshine is making the Autumn colours look so beautiful this year. 🍂☀️
It's definitely time to think about investing in a cosy pair of boots, like the memory foam SKECHERS Keepsakes 2.0 - Cloud Peak boots.

I have shopped at Jake's for many years and am really please to see the expansion of thier stores with the one opening in Altrincham. Staff are always helpful and friendly and the range of footwear they sell is excellent! A definate loyal and returning shopper here :)

User

I have been ordering both my daughter's school shoes from here for the last three years. Never disappointed - plenty of choice, good price and super quick free next working day delivery on all orders over £40. I would recommend Jake Shoes 100% :-)

User

Hi, I would just like to say a big thank you to all the staff at Jakes shoes.... quick delivery, very very helpful staff.... and fantastic customer service! I'd highly recommend buying shoes from Jakes... I'll be back to order more soon! Vicki (orders men's Ugg boots but had to return for bigger size!) thanks :-)

User

Great choices. Great selection of my favourites- Fly, Converse and Ruby Shoo. Will be back when return to UK in July.

User

Excellent customer service! When I had an issue with some boots, Jake sorted it quickly for me. Your staff were very helpful in advising me about different boots! Great shop- love your stuff- nowhere else I would buy my shoes from!

User

Amazing!!! Ordered my second pair of shoes online. I love them!!! Stunning shoes, the most comfiest shoes, great price and what great service! Delivery within 2 working days!!! Thank you I will be back. � xx

User

Ordered a pair of school shoes for my daughter on Sunday. This was the only place I could find online with the size and style she wanted. They were delivered for free and arrived on Tuesday which was great. The box was abit battered but luckily the shoes were intact. I would order again �

User

Item sent quickly (would have given 5 stars if delivery was free.) I had spent £85 on a pair of boots.

User

Manager rude, rip off merchants , dia customer service did everything

User

Check sizes before you buy, they convert to the smaller option, ie: 41 is sold as a 8, 42 is closer to an 8. Says you can return, what it does not make clear is you have to pay for returns. Would I buy from these people again. NOPE!

User

Bought my daughter size 13 shoes was sent a size 31. U.K. Size 13 is a 32in EU. Emailed to advise of this error to be told point blank I am wrong, no apology the error is all mine. Even after sending lelli Kelly size guides from other retailers and a snap shot off google images showing they have their size guide wrong still no apology. Unless you check the size guide on every single item you buy I would strongly advise to avoid. And as far as customer services goes it was beyond shocking, never encountered such rude customer care in my life

User

Awful!!! Paid extra to have the boots delivered next day...ordered Friday it’s now Tuesday and we still don’t have them!!

User

After being treated like a criminal by a member of staff (I assume management) for returning a pair of school shoes, that had been worn for 6hours..

The assistant proceeded to blame my daughter for the fault. Yet if this had infact been the case, she would of almost certainly broken her ankle whilst doing so.

After 20minutes of arguing and wasting my time with the assistant, I left the store rather red faced!!!

After contacting the Dr marten's head office myself I returned the shoes direct to them and my concerns where in fact right and the shoes proven to be faulty.



I can honestly say thanks to the extremely disgusting customer service that jakes provide, and the snotty nosed blonde manager that proceeded to look down her nose at me throughout our conversation I will not be returning to jakes in the future.

But I have taken a little comfort in reading the reviews on this page today as it appears that I am not the only one that had received this level of customer service from this particular store! Looks like your company prefers profit over your reputation.

I have also logged a full complaint with dr marten's over the level of customer service you have given on there behave...

User

Absolutely disgusted with the way I got treated in jakes. I have 3 young boys and always go to jakes for their school shoes. This time was no different. I bought my six year old son a pair of timberland boots, they cost me £60 but I don’t mind paying for expensive shoes if they will last. After wearing the boots 7 times they look like they are at least a year old. All the front end has come off them on both boots, which means he can’t wear them. So I may as well have chucked £60 down the drain. Apparently they have emailed Timberland who have said there is nothing they can do! I won’t ever be buying from jakes again!

Absolute disreagard for the Sale of Goods Act!

I spent £85 on a pair of Dr Martens sandals and after a few wears the sole was very badly worn. I returned them to be told I would have to come back another day when a manager was in! I insisted this was not good enough and some photos were taken of the shoes along with my contact details so they could call me back. This was 5 working days ago and I am still waiting. These sandals are on the Dr Martens website and reviews on there comment on the poor quality sole so I contacted Dr Martens directly. They are happy to exchange them directly and managed a response in only 2 days.

The sale of goods act applies to retailers and not manufacturers but Jakes shoes seem to think they are exempt, see other reviews! I am a retail manager and I am fully aware of the law but many people will have been fobbed off with faulty goods and no recompense as Jakes will make out that there is no fault present!
