DB Wider Fit Shoes, a family run firm, proudly serving Rushden, is located in Irchester Road.

“Comfort” and lots of varied things spring to mind, when we say that particular word! But what could be more desirable than that for our feet.

So who better to make sure of extra comfort, than DB, a name that has been in Rushden for so many years.

That comes with a solid reputation in the shoe trade, reaching back for over 170 years to Benjamin Denton and his son George.

Handy information.

The wide choice of styles is available on line, alongside the fitting centre in Irchester Road in town.

Service with a smile.
DB Wider Fit Shoes is providing the best local choice, for both Ladies and Men’s extra wide and deep fitting footwear.

A one-to-one fitting service is available, and is carried out by trained staff. For this, an hour appointment is recommended for your satisfaction.

Their extensive range from smart to casual, boot or shoes or sandals, come in fittings up to 8E width, with adjustable depths to accommodate feet of all shapes, as well as depths and widths, for pain-free wear.

A further range of boots and trainers and loafers gives a full choice to shoppers.

The shoes are imported predominately from Europe with a few styles from India. I was particularly impressed with the layout of the show room, with such a large range of comfortable footwear available, for ladies and gentlemen.

The shop hours are 10:00 to 16:30 Monday to Friday, and it is on the ground floor and having step free access. The office is open 09:00 to 17:00 telephone number is 01933-311077.

Mrs Helen Denton kindly gave us an ‘access all areas tour’ of the business in Irchester Road, on Wednesday 6th August, 2025.

The future is looking good, and a large investment has brought the headquarters up to date, as you may have observed if you have passed by.

The weather on the day of our tour, was dry and sunny, with 27C the order of the day, more local information at http://www.rushden-weather.co.uk/
