This summer is very different to last summer. Although we still don't have all our 'freedom' we are enjoying the normality of a busy shop, directing tourists to the nearest cafe and opening the windows to gaze at the fields. . . Photo ID Plaited sandals in light brown leather. 
Summer's here! If you are headed to the beautiful Southwest this summer why not take a short detour to our shop and workshop. Take the scenic route to Cornwall across Dartmoor and pop in to say hi. And maybe try on some sandals at the same time. . . #shoemaking #shoemaker #handmadeshoes #maker #make #slowfashion #ethical #ethicalfashion #sustainablefashion #sustainability #consciousfashion #consciousliving #ethicalfashion #ecofashion #craftmanship #craftswoman #fashionrevolution #shopsmall #shopwell #shopindependent

Rain rain go away! How's the weather where you are? Here on Dartmoor it has pretty much been raining since March. We can't complain as everything is so green and vibrant. And of course we love wearing our Walking boots but we can't wait for sandal weather. .

To be honest posting this photo felt like a moral dilemma. How are you really feeling a 'shopping' at the moment? At GSHQ we love shopping vicariously through each other - sharing every lunchbreak purchase from the local charity shops or discussing at length our current wishlist of well-considered buys. But at the moment that all feels a bit frivolous and redundant. Do we really need to fill our houses and our minds with more clutter? Especially after the year we just had of clearing out the unwanted junk. Perhaps all our palates are jaded from previous overconsumption or maybe we are just readjusting tentatively to the world and it all feels a bit 'mehhh'. So if you are contemplating buying something new (to you) then we urge to ensure its from someone who appreciates it. Someone who will acknowledge your purchase. Someone for whom it will make a difference. That's all. . .

You know the world is changing when the adverts on Saturday night prime time are a big jeans brands promoting their dubious sustainable credentials and an online second-hand website extolling the 'newly discovered' (?) virtues of shopping pre-loved. Do you think shoppers fall for these marketing campaigns? Surely there are simpler answers? Are these large corporations running scared or are they cashing in on a growing market? Whatever, it feels like this tiny turn in the tide we felt pre-covid is now becoming a tidal wave. And that can only be a good thing. For you, for us and ultimately for the world. Right? .
