Five Very Cool Fashion Websites In Our Opinion

Initially, when we had the idea for this post we thought that it would be relatively easy to find a whole bunch of shoes websites that were really cool - sadly, we couldn't have been more wrong - the whole thing has proved rather difficult.

What we have discovered is that many of the top names in shoes actually have very poor websites. We are no experts on web design ourselves but many of them (including Prada and Gucci) have sites that are very hard to decipher. There doesnt actually appear to be any purpose to these sites except to publish pictures of models - you can get stockist information (this can be rather irrelevant sometimes for those of us in the UK), browse the current collection (but not buy) and the like - however, much of the time you actually have to guess what to click!

Anyway, moaning aside there are some shoe websites which are excellent. Here are five of our favourites:

Dr Martens

Good old Doc Martens - this is how you do it. Simple, easy to follow navigation - and the entire collection available to buy online - very cool.

Birkenstock

Perhaps not the most aesthetially pleasing website, but practical and comprehensive nonetheless. Birkenstock sandals and shoes are a great quality option - we would have no hesitation buying from the website.

Office

Office Shoes have a wide range of shoes from many different brands. A nice, easy to use website.

Camper

We like the use of imagery on the Camper website.

Swear London

If you're looking for some cutting edge styles then check out Swear London - the website is pretty sharp too!
