Removable, washable insoles enhance comfort in all Backdoorshoes models. Moulded for support, they accommodate custom orthotics, addressing conditions like plantar fasciitis. Designed to fit seamlessly into our clogs and boots, these insoles ensure a personalised fit for individuals with specific foot care needs.

My husbands garden shoes arrived today I finally ordered the correct size. I have to thank Stephen for being so helpful even on New Years Day. My husband is extremely happy with his shoes and they fit perfectly we had to go up to a size 13 for perfect comfort. Thank you once again.

A new product hand knitted slipper/socks... very nicely knitted and finished by experienced hands and look hand made. They are true to size and fit very well. They are comfortable and warm. And, I think because they haven't stretched, I feel safe wearing them on the stairs. Ideal for lazy days on the sofa. I would buy these for myself (73yrs) or for someone in my age group for there simplicity and practicality but I wonder if there are more eye catching colours available.

Bought a pair of Backdoorshoes about three years ago for my wife. Everytime she goes out to the garden, she wears them. They are so comfortable and hard wearing. She would recommend them to anyone.
