This year marks an iconic milestone for Robin Elt Shoes, 150 years and five generations of the Elt Family running shoe shops which serve the local community, from its 8 branches and website.

 

To mark this occasion, we will be celebrating in all of our shops from Thursday 30th June – Saturday 2nd July! We hope that you can join us.

In 1872, Great Great Grandfather Albert Edward Elt took over a small shoe shop in Worcester a few footsteps away from the music shop where the world famous English composer Elgar grew up.  You can read more about Our Story here. At our store celebrations from this Thursday you will be able to view our beautiful collection of historic photographs.
