I have always had mine made by 'Munro Competition Shoes', a small one-woman company. Bobby Munro, who began making these shoes, was a World Champion Highland Dancer and so he really knew what it was all about. Sadly he died several years ago, but the woman who took over the reins learned her craft from Bobby. Unfortunately she has no website or e-mail address but full details are available from:
Marie Chaplin-Garrett,
20, Woodhall Close,
Cuckfield,
Nr. Haywards Heath,
West Sussex,
RH17 5HJ,
UNITED KINGDOM Tel: 01444 456807
Then there is The Scottish Dance Shoe Company. I have never worn their shoes, but they have a good reputation. They are at: www.scottishdanceshoe.co.uk
And St. Andrews Shoemakers Ltd at www.standrews-shoemakers.com but I know nothing of their quality or service, but they DO have Agents in the USA listed on their website.
Sorry, Panache, but I do not know of anyone else in the USA.
As long as you know your Left from your Right, you will LOVE SCD. Good Luck with it.
