Spice Independent shoe shop

If like me you enjoy shopping the old fashioned way you will absolutely LOVE the experience at Spice, where I get treated like a queen every time I step through the door whether I am shopping or not.

I try not to browse small shops without intent but these guys are wonderful to everyone. A real family affair.

Shopping for shoes, they have their own brand Spice London as well as stocking quite a few European style brands.

So we’ve still got Clark’s hanging on but if you like sitting down and being served this is one of the last remaining independent shoe shops in London. (There is a ladies shoe shop in neighbouring St John’s Wood, nice product, staff not so helpful)

Every independent business starts somewhere and these folk were selling school pumps at a £1 a pair on Camden Lock long before they were serving celebrities in the swanky Primrose Hill location.

I don’t buy loads of new shoes, maybe a couple of pairs a year, I don’t like wearing them in, the beauty of the shoes at Spice London they are such good quality shoes fitted to perfection they rarely need wearing in.

They do get quite a few famous people in the shop, so make sure you don’t look too scruffy when you visit, I had a very old coat on when I bumped into Jimmy Carr coming out.
