About us

Footwear specialists, not general cleaners

Re-Store Footwear recovers mould-affected and damaged footwear and apparel for UK retailers, brands, importers and logistics operators. We are the remediation business of Elegant Shoes Limited, which has worked in the UK footwear supply chain since 1985.

The Re-Store Footwear remediation facility in Rossendale, Lancashire

Where we come from

For four decades our parent company has worked in the UK footwear supply chain, much of it with footwear made in the Far East. We know how the goods are manufactured, packed, containerised and shipped, and we have seen what happens when something goes wrong on the way.

Re-Store Footwear grew out of that experience. Retailers and importers were writing off stock that could be saved, because few businesses were set up to remediate it properly at volume. We are.

How we work

  • Everything in-house.All remediation happens at our own facility in Rossendale, which is how we control the process, the traceability and the records.

  • Every unit, every stage.Each unit is inspected against seven points and passes through all five stages of our process.

  • Careful claims.We say what we can do and what we cannot. Our reports are written to be accurate, not to impress.

  • Discreet.We do not name clients or show their stock without permission.
