Parade Footwear

Traditional parade footwear represents perhaps the most immediately noticeable element of ceremonial turnout. Our collection features the complete spectrum of military parade footwear—from the classic Oxford shoe with patent toe cap that creates the quintessential parade appearance to the imposing George Boot that projects authority through its distinctive riding boot profile. Each design adheres to precise military specifications while providing appropriate options for different ceremonial contexts.

The collection acknowledges the diversity of cadet formations through specialised options. The Female Parade Shoe provides appropriate styling for female cadets, while Scottish formations receive proper support through the Thistle 1239 Buckle Kilt Brogue with its distinctive high polish finish. Enhanced parade boots like the Black DMS with high-shine toe and counter balance practical support with ceremonial appearance.

For mounted detachments and cavalry traditions, our collection includes both the traditional George Boot with spur boxes and the complementary Swan Neck Spurs in both standard and brass finishes. These specialised items maintain important ceremonial heritage while supporting proper equestrian presentation during mounted parades.

Beyond mere appearance, quality parade footwear teaches important lessons about attention to detail and personal pride. The discipline required to maintain proper parade footwear—applying consistent polish, achieving even leather conditioning, and maintaining precise lacing—translates directly to wider cadet training objectives.

Since 1949, we have provided quality parade equipment that supports cadet ceremonial excellence across the UK. Our footwear collection continues this tradition, offering appropriate options that develop the distinguished appearance and confident bearing that remain central to the cadet experience.
