We make great shoes for kids!
Hi!
Welcome to Term Footwear, the UK shoe brand which is exclusively designed with British weather in mind. We’re Sharon and Lincoln, founders of Term Footwear. We’re dedicated to putting great quality, comfortable, and fashionable school shoes and wellies onto the feet of kids across the nation, at an affordable price.
We’ve been walking this path since 2009 and what a journey it has been! The company began when we, as parents ourselves, faced a lack of choice for our children’s school shoes. Using Sharon’s South-African roots, we brought back school shoes whenever we visited family across the equator. A question from a family member, ‘where’s your entrepreneurial spirit?’, kickstarted the whole concept and Term Footwear has filled big boots since.
From distributing other brands to developing, designing and making our own shoes, our aim is to craft good-looking, and form-supporting school shoes! We firmly believe shoes for kids shouldn’t be stressful, and here at Term Footwear we offer peace of mind. We hope you enjoy rocking our shoes as much as we enjoyed designing and crafting them.
If you can't find what you need, please let us know, we want to help!
Sincerely,
Sharon and Lincoln, Term Footwear founders
