With pipers in mind . . .

Here at Thistle Shoes we understand the importance of good foot wear; it’s imperative that your shoes are good fitting, offering the right level of comfort, support and durability that standing for hours at a time demands. Our piper collection has been developed in conjunction with world class pipers for that lasting comfort and maximum durability.

Our Story

Thistle Shoes is a family owned business that was founded in 1984. Our shoes are made with the skills and crafts of old. We use the finest leathers that we can find for durability, flexibility and of course smartness. We stitch the soles to the uppers and use brass nails on the heels. There are faster and easier ways to make shoes, but this is the way we find the best. We are the largest stockiest and supplier of ghillie brogues to retailers and the hire market in the world offering over 12 styles of Ghillie brogues.
