    Anyone know a factory outlet in Melb that stocks good quality shoes (Clarks etc)?

    I need to buy my kids some shoes - normally i get grosby's from Big W, but i couldn't find any that fit DS properly.

    I have been buying Target shoes, but would prefer something better quality - anyone know where i can find a factory outlet that stocks good quality shoes?

    In general i hate DFO as most of the prices aren't cheaper, so if the shop is in DFO are they actually a bargain? I would rather drive further and make sure i save $$ seeing as i will be buying 4 or so pairs.

    Yes yes yes!! Near chapel street there is a bonds factory outlet, and just the next shop down there is this really good shoe shop, it is where I used to get all my shoes because they were cheaper but great. I discovered it on a shopping tour I went on years ago with my mum.
    Bonds is 7 Claremont st, south yarra
    Footwear express outlet is 7/9 claremont street..
    I love bonds.. lol.. great for socks while your there!!
    And yes they have clarks, kids and adult shoes, fancy shoes, comfy shoes, work shoes and school shoes

    there is a shop at DFO at essendon, cant remember what its called though.

    Most of the girls pairs i looked at were marked down to around $40ish from $60ish

    I tried the place in South Yarra but it has closed down.

    But then i got a 15% Myer for family and friends (google Ozbargains and you can get one also - just scroll down until you find it) - which was ontop of already discounted items

    There was already 25% off kids shoes - so i got almost 40% off in total

    Anyway, i got 5 pairs of clarks shoes for the kids for like $210 - I was stoked!

    There were lots of kids Clarks shoes at the new DFO at South Wharf. Definitely marked down. I can't remember the name of the shop though...
