Ethletic Sneakers; no for much longer

Denise — Wed, 08 Aug 2012 15:14:33 +0100

It doesn't look like we will be able to get any more Ethletic sneakers for the future, so we are running our current stocks down.

We are already out of some sizes/styles so if you wanted to order any more of these, now would seem to be a good time to order.

We are looking to bring in our own range of European made canvas sneakers from the Autumn onwards, details to follow.
