Welcome to David Roberts

Established in 1922, by its founder David Roberts, returning back to his native North Wales after a distinguished career in the the capital, London. For over 14 years he worked for the world famous store of Harrods, rising to the rank of Chief Buyer of their shoe department. Now for over 85 years and three generations of the Roberts' family, the business has flourished at it's site at Knightsbridge House, named after his asssociation with that area, Gloddaeth Street, Llandudno.The original shop front as shown below, was designed by David Roberts and is still in place to this day. While many things have changed over the years, the commitment to providing the highest standards of personal service, together with the willingness to go the extra mile to ensure customer satisfaction, is still as strong as ever.

History of David Roberts

In those bygon days of service and quality there was always David Roberts of Llandudno. Times may have changed but our services and quality still remains.The gentle art of foot measuring by qualified shoe fitters is still practised daily to ensure correct size and fittings. As specialist in ladies smaller sizes by Vicki Beth/Tango down to size 32 continental (size 1 english) and now upto size 10 ladies shoes in narrow fittings like Amalfi, Jardins and Nil Simile and broader fittings by VanDal, Waldlaufer and emotion shoes and sandals.

It is a sobering thought to Andrew that because he started so young, he has now been in the business longer than either his grandfather or his father. Yet it is this wealth of experience that allows him to continue to provide footwear of the high quality and craftsmanship. He is a qualified shoe fitter being a member of The Society of Shoe Fitters and is available to help and advise on specialist footwear needs.
