Our range of Casual Shoes consists of something for everyone from casual trainers like Nike 6.0 Skate Shoes and the ever increasingly popular versatile Merrell Jungle Mocs, Skechers sneakers and Teva trainers to walking sandals like the new Merrell Sienna Womens Sandals and bestselling Havaianas and Reef Flip Flops perfect for the beach or relaxing by the pool.  However if you’re wanting cold weather footwear instead then the winter boots from Sorel or ugg style Emu Australia Boots will keep you nice and toasty during the colder months.  Or if a comfortable pair of Slip On Shoes are more your thing for lazy days around the house or a quick trip to the shops then you can put on a pair of the eco-friendly and innovative Sanuk Shoes or Havaianas Espadrilles.

Merrell Jungle Moc – Gunsmoke

Just because they are Casual Shoes doesn’t mean you can’t expect some of the technical features of performance based footwear to give you similar support when you’re on the move like antimicrobial coatings to prevent odours and microbes from building up when you perspire, moulded EVA soles and foot-frames on certain models, some even feature additional cushioning for added impact protection as well.

Our collection of Casual Shoes here at FitnessFootwear.com is sure to include your ideal pair of every day shoes and at affordable prices to suit your budget so you can enjoy and focus on where your footwear takes you.

While the average flip-flop or sandal is fine for a day or two, our range of Summer Sandals give you the same level of comfort and performance as technical footwear so you can wear them for longer without the worry of them falling apart the next time you decide to wear them for a walk.

One of our bestselling sandals is the Merrell Womens Sienna Sandals collection and they’re perfect for just about every summery activity or trip you’re likely to take.  Designed as a sports sandal, the Merrell Sienna Sandals feature a nubuck leather upper that can be altered by straps over the instep and heel giving you a more comfortable fit and a double-stitched leather strut and braided strand over the instep connect to the toe loop giving you extra support and a subtle bit of style too.  They are made with an EVA footframe with triple density compression moulded Q-Form, a nylon 6.6 injection moulded arch shank and a Merrell air cushion midsole all giving you incredible comfort with each step.

If you’re planning on spending most of your time at the beach or near the pool then you need a decent pair of flip-flops like the popular Havaianas Brazil Flip Flops.  Havaianas take their main design from the original Japanese rice straw Zori sandals only they use 100% natural rubber and they are durable so they will last a lot longer than your average pair so you don’t have to buy a new pair every holiday.  They are also available in a range of colours with a simple Brazil design and piping so they are stylish without being too flashy or tacky like cheaper flip-flops.

You’ll find a whole range of Summer Sandals and Flip-Flops from other premium brands here at FitnessFootwear.com like Reef and Sanuk perfect for your summer beach style.

Each season Merrell succeed in adding new models, colourways and styles to their already impressive range of Merrell Ladies Boots that already includes the lace up biker style Natalya, the uber comfortable and warm Nikita and the longer leg Prevoz. We have recently seen the new range of Merrell Womens Boots for 2013 and they have not failed with this year’s line up. We will bring you a full review below of what to expect at FitnessFootwear.com this coming Autumn season.

Merrell Decora Chant Boot

The Merrell Decora Boot range (pictured  on the left) was the strongest offering for this season and as a result we have ordered all three styles in a variety of colours. The Decora Chant Waterproof is no exception and we have asked for this product in Black, Mocha and the stunning Wine colour. This 10 inch boot is, in our minds, the replacement for the popular Taiga boot of last year. With 2 feature buckles, an inside zip, suede upper and a faux fur collar this really is a beautiful looking piece of footwear. To add to this, it is also technically outstanding with waterproofing, breathability and the M-Grip sole.

Merrell Decora Sonata Boot

The Merrell Decora Sonata is a shorter waterproof boot that sits just above the ankle. Featuring a full grain leather upper, 6 eyelet lace ups and faux fur collar this boot is on trend for the autumn winter season. Also with M-Select insulation and a breathable mesh lining they will keep your feet warm even on an icy winter’s day. Our favourite colour of this boot is Mocha.

Merrell Haven Autumn Boot

The Merrell Haven Autumn is a stylish boot with a 12 inch leg height. Offering a slimline look, nice detail on the contrast straps and the practicality of waterproofing, great grips and the comfort you expect from a Merrell Womens Boot. We chose the Otter and Mocha colours in the Haven Autumn Boot which you can see in the picture to the left – great all round colours that will suit almost any outfit without clashing.

Merrell Snowbound Drift Mid Waterproof Boot

The Merrell Snowbound Drift Boot is waterproof mid-height boot with a stylish look. The faux fur cuff detail on these ladies winter walking style boots give them a distinctive style and hint at their luxurious warmth, brought to you via a M-Select lining, conductor fleece and an ActiveHeat insole. With M-Select Dry and Merrell waterproofing they will also stay dry in all weathers. Featuring air cushions, a compression moulded midsole and an anatomical footbed; comfort has not been sacrificed and we don’t think you will find a more comfortable boot in a similar style than the Merrell Snowbound Drift Boot.

Merrell Decora Minuet Boot

This boot was a firm favourite at our buying meeting and we had difficulty choosing a favourite colour, and as a result we have ordered the Decora Minuet in Black and Mocha. The Merrell Decora Minuet Boot is a waterproof Merrell Ladies Boot, but this time with an in inside zip for swift removal and a faux fur cuff. This 9 inch boot is super comfortable, toasty warm and breathable and combined with a grippy sole and a great clean look this boot is expected to be a top seller.

We will also be stocking some other great new ladies styles from Merrell this autumn & winter season including the Merrell Emery Lace fashion boot with small heel, fleece cuffs and great lacing detail (pictured left), the Daria walking shoes & boots, Grashopper Sport shoes and the Mix Master Glide running shoes.

So you can clearly see this upcoming collection of Merrell Womens Winter Boots is going to be one to look out for this Autumn right here at FitnessFootwear.com.

Caterpillar Colorado Boots

Caterpillar have been one of the leading companies for construction equipment, vehicles and tools across the world for the last 85 years, so it stands to reason that Cat Boots are premium footwear when it comes to work boots and outdoor boots.  Chances are you will have owned a pair, or known someone who has, especially with the iconic honey-coloured Cat Colorado Boots which is one of the top selling footwear ranges in the world.

While the originals were styled to a work wear look with aggressive treads like caterpillar tracks, and a yellow paint scheme to match the Caterpillar branded equipment the later ranges of Womens Cat Boots have added an almost biker style with thick cut heels and treads giving extreme grip and incredible designs.

Caterpillar Depict Hi-Boots – Espresso Instinct

You’ll find only premium materials and construction with Caterpillar Boots like multiple leather uppers consisting of nubuck, suede, full grained and waxed leather for a sturdy, protective and water resistant boot.  Combined with breathable nylon mesh midsoles which not only wick moisture away and regulate temperature making you more comfortable but also gives extra support and with T3 rubber outsoles or the T909 iTechnology soles you’ll keep your footing and grip to most terrain conditions with ease.

When Sealskinz emerged onto the market, they wanted to offer a range of products that were not only completely innovative, waterproof and breathable, but also inspired by the feedback given on them from the people that wore them. This way, Sealskinz Underwear has become completely driven by its customer base and is constantly evolving.

Sealskinz Socks make use of the brands patented three-layer technology – an inner lining to wick moisture away from the skin, a waterproof middle membrane and a durable stretch-fit outer layer. The combination of the three ensures that Sealskinz Walking Socks are not just technically excellent, but comfortable and warm too.

The result of the Sealskinz patented technology is a product that reduces blisters, pulls moisture from the skin while retaining warmth and ultimately allowing you to keep going for longer, no matter what the conditions outdoors. Enjoy a bit of comfort without inconvenience with fantastic new Sealskinz socks now in at FitnessFootwear.com.

Back in the 1970’s New Balance changed the way we looked at our running footwear and helped make the decision about what to buy a little bit easier. Unlike a lot of brands, New Balance knew that a run could take you over different terrain and so whatever running shoes you wore, they needed to be versatile and able to handle a bit of everything. That’s not changed since day one and today, New Balance Running Shoes offer the support, style and tech you need to take on the challenges you put your feet through.

With everything from moisture-wicking mesh materials to the most rigid shoelaces that refuse to come undone no matter what you put them through, the latest styles from New Balance have got it all. New Balance Minimus Shoes feature a minimal 4mm drop to give you the true barefoot experience, and solid construction Vibram outsoles that keep on going. What’s more, these colourful shoes ensure you’ll be seen even on the darkest of running evenings. And for the best spec footwear available, the New Balance M860 V3 Shoes give you complete stability and comfort when out on the trails.

New Balance is just one of the fantastic brands available at FitnessFootwear.com boasting comfort, reliability and excellent quality as standard. Get your feet into quality shoes and let New Balance help you put your best foot first.
