Wimmin's winter boots for sale in Belfast (prev south)?

Does anyone know if anywhere is selling boots with a decent rubber sole with a bit of grip on it? Preferably suitable for an active mature lady.

I think the place on sandy row does good boots - can't remember the name but it's the big shoe shop about halfway down - good service too.

Yes, I know the one you mean, thanks, I'd forgotten about them. An elderly friend said she got good ones off the fella the Inns and he's got a sale on atm. I need somewhere that will take them back because I'm buying them for my mum.

Just dredged my memory and came up with Reids which might even be right.

Whre is it you're thinking of going? Haven't heard of that...

'Inn shoes' on the Saintfield Road at Newtownbreda ????

Yes, that's it, a friend of mine buys all her shoes there and it's only up the road so I'll try there first.

You'd think shoe manufacturers would put a bit more thought into the soles, especially in boots etc designed for the more mature market. I checked M&S and they hadn't one pair with a decent grip on the bottom, they were even slippery on the shop floor, pffttt!
