Fitness Footwear, the number one online sports and activity shoe retailer, has reported a surge in sales of winter shoes and boots following one of the wettest summers on record.

Knebworth, UK (PRWEB) September 8, 2008 -- Website reports rise in winter shoe sales after dismal summer.

Fitness Footwear, the number one online sports and activity shoe retailer, has reported a surge in sales of winter shoes (http://www.onshoes.com) and boots following one of the wettest summers on record.

Fitness Footwear supplies footwear for a variety of different activities including climbing, running, golf and squash, as well as catering for walkers, hikers and ramblers across the UK and Europe.

Luke Barlow, Founder of Fitness Footwear, said: "The awful weather we have experienced in August has really affected sales of winter shoes on our site especially walking shoes and boots and our sheepskin-lined EMU boots. It's evident that people have started packing away their flip flops and are shopping for shoes in preparation for winter. With all the wet weather we have also seen a significant rise in the number of people ordering Hunter wellies (http://www.fitnessfootwear.com/c-212-hunter-wellies.aspx)."

Fitness Footwear offers a range of sport and leisure shoes to cater for every interest. From skate to climbing, from squash to badminton, Fitness Footwear has something for everyone, stocking top quality brands including Caterpillar boots, Ecco, Hi-Tec, Merrell, DC, Mizuno and Quicksilver.

The secure site enables you to browse by activity or brand and all orders despatched within the UK come with free delivery as standard.
