I do not no what shop the last person is talking about but it certainly isn’t BARRIE HOWARD SHOES EAST STREET, I have been shopping there for 20 years and always buy my kids Kickers there, I have always found the manager and staff excellent plus I always get what I want there.
To end I find the last persons comment very condescending as I live in Walworth and for her to call the shop and area seedy is an insult.
Thanks again BH May you always be trading
Went to HB this morning to purchase school shoes for my daughter. I asked for several styles in a particular size and the manager said he was out of those styles. I then asked what styles did they have available in my daughters size. The manager proceeded to asked me if I had a problem with his attitude. I said no, I’m asking about what shoes he had left in a 6. He said if I didn’t like his attitude I was welcome to leave, which is exactly what we did! Went to Robert Carder shoes in East Dulwich which is also a stockist of Kickers and had wonderful, helpful service..daughter found her shoes in under 35 minutes. Please do not waste your time dealing with inadequate unprofessional service, as parents we are paying a lot of money and deserve nothing less than respectful service. Take your money elsewhere!
Love going to BARRIE HOWARD SHOES they always have the size in KICKERS we require and don’t have to shop about. Before we found BH we used to buy on line but we got stung with some fakes so decided to find a stockist, which we now have found. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.
THANKS BH 5 STAR
I have been buying my kids school shoes here for over 20 years. My only problem I find is that the quality of the leather and bottom of shoe is not as good as before. My son has worn out 2 pairs of kickers 1 pair of wallabiees, and I have to buy another pair today. There's only 2 more weeks left of school, but it's that bad. I did speak to the owner. The owner confirmed that the kickers company is not using the same leather. I'm truly disappointed because the shoes are not cheap. Getting wallabees today but I will get kickers for September. What can you do ????????? For my kids kickers does no longer last 1 academic school year!
I have literally just come from the shop with my daughters kickers strap broken. Was defo a faulty pair made by kickers not the shop. I walked in and was instantly given replacement shoes no questions asked!thank u sooo much guys :) ur customer service is fantastic!will defo be returning very shortly xxx
Barrie howard shoes already have their back to school range in, as usual they have a vast range of kicker school shoes plus lelly kelly, mary janes and some really nice unisex tassel loafers.
I always buy early as if you leave it later on in august the shop is rammo, so my advice is buy early like i have done.
The service was second to none and i always feel i get the right size as my kids are always measured correctly by the friendly staff.
50 years in East St that's fantastic, and I have been buying my shoes their for 20 years. Please carry on doing what you are doing

Just saw last review and cannot beleive they have been in East St for 50 years, I remember buying my KICKERS and WALLABEES their 30 years ago and I am also now taken my kids their
LOVE THE SHOP AND LOVE THE STAFF THEY ARE THE BEST
I just bought KICKERS for my Grandson at BARRIE HOWARD SHOES cannot believe I bought my KICKERS in the same shop when I was a kid.
Long may they carry on hopefully for the next 50 YEARS
Been everywhere to buy my daughter the kicker t bar shoe and Barrie Howard had all sizes all other shop and online had no stock I agree with last review in future I will go straight there THANKS
Went to 5shops to buy new Lelli Kelly school shoes with changeable straps no one had them in was going to give up but someone told me about Barrie Howard in East St and they saved my life as my daughter was driving me mad for them. Thanks again Barrie Howard
Back to school collection amazing they have Kickers,Dr Martens,Wallabees and their own brand of school shoes with a starting price of only £14.99 I shop no where else for shoes
Just been to Barrie Howard it is manic don't know how the staff put up with everyone who want to be served at once.They are fantastic and patient as everyone gets served with the kicker they want as they always have the size and style you want. Well done all the staff
Like everyone said, they do have the biggest range I've ever since.
But the customer service is appalling.
If you try on their shoes and decide that you do not want to buy them. Expect the staff, especially the owner of the shop, to make snide comments behind your back.
I went to the store to purchase my daughter's school shoes. I saw a shoe that I really liked, but when one of the staff got the shoe in my daughters size from the back. It looked nothing like that style I saw.
I decided not to purchase the shoe and boy oh boy did I receive some snide comments, mainly from the ow
I was recommended by a friend to travel to BARRIE HOWARD SHOES to purchase my sons kickers for school they told me that they had the biggest selection they have seen anywhere. They were right not only do they have the biggest selection I have seen but the price was the cheapest I have seen anywhere. The staff are very helpfull aswell as they measure for the correct size which does not happen in most shops. Thank you for your great service to all at BH.
Just bought my two kids their back to school shoes early at Barrie Howard Shoes as I know if I leave it till the last week you just can't get into the shop due to the crowds. I bought my daughter the new Lelli Kelly school shoes and my son Velcro Kickers which are worth the money as they last so long. The service was excellent as they were measured and the assistant made sure there was enough room for September. Well done all at Barrie Howard and thanks
BARRIE HOWARD SHOES sell the best wallabees ideal for school they last.My son used to wear out three pairs of shoes a term,these wallabees last him at least 6 month which I think is excellent as he wears them five days a week.The added bonus is that they cost only £19.99.
They also sell the best range of KICKERS
Barrie Howard have already got their BACK TO SCHOOL range already.I always buy my kids KICKERS early as I know if I leave to the last minuet the queue will be down the road,so I always get the kids fitted bigger so they fit ok for September I know the staff can be relied upon to do this.They are still the best place to buy school shoes.I would recommend them to all
Took my two children to Barrie Howard Shoes for new kicker school shoes they were fantastic such great service. They measured them both for the correct size and really took time making sure they fitted this is why i dont buy shoes online because you never know if you are buying the correct size. I always travel all the way from kent to East Street because i know they always have the stock at the right price.They also have a great range of dress shoes too names like LELLY KELLY and BIRKENSTOCK and loads of colours of MARY JANE SHOES THANKS ALL AT BARRIE HOWARD SHOES
I bought my school shoes from BH and now I buy my daughters shoes from BH. I drive all the way from surrey to shop there. Cant fault the service. Second to none.
i shop no where else for my kids kickers they always measure their feet to get the correct size and the price is always cheaper than anywhere else thanks for your great service
barrie howard shoes have the best selection of kids ladies and gents birkenstocks in all colours of the rainbow,they have extra large ladies sizes upto size 43 well worth a visit
Great service! Best selection of kickers in London by far at the cheapest price you will find!! They always have sizes in stock, so that's why I go straight there and not anyway else!! Well done Barrie Howard!! Would definitely recommend this to a friend!!
