    Can you prove what your shoes cost?

    They have stated
    We would like to offer you £20.00 as full and
    final settlement of this matter this will be offered in the absence of any
    receipts for the shoes being provided.

    which suggests they would be quite happy to compensate you for the cost of the shoes if you can demonstrate the amount you're asking for is not something you've plucked out the air. Which I think is a fair stance.

    I agree. I think it also shows that all the discussion about who is at fault is entirely irrelevant. They have agreed to compensation the OP. The only issue now is the value of the claim.
