Hi everyone!

Many years ago, I was walking and saw a shop with huge feet sticking out from the first floor! I seem to remember the legs and feet had boots on? Maybe...

I would like to find a photo of that store!! If anyone knows where it is and it's name, please can you reply so I can get a photo!

Hi nicv27!

I remember seeing it whilst going to the Burberry Factory Outlet!

Can't remember where the big feet shop was!

Sorry mate, Londoner born and bred but don't know of the shop! I do know where you mean, know the area but not the big feet! Have you given the good old street view a try along your route at all?

I'm intrigued now.

Hi Caspa,

thanks for your reply! I tried the street view but no success! I know there was a parade of shops, with this unusual shop, but I know such parades exist on every high street.

I also tried a Google search ' London shop, big protruding feet, second floor' but no luck there...

Hi.. I used to work around there 20 years ago so I know the area a little but nothing springs to mind..... Had a look on Street view also but nothing.
Do you use Twitter? try asking on there... Good Luck

Hi! I use Twitter but not so effectively!

I don't think it was the Doc Martens shop.

These were two long legs with feet sticking out of the first floor. I guess the shoes were 12 feet tall...

Maybe that shop has long gone.....

I'll find another big feet picture!

thanks for posting !!!
