Need to buy new shoes in SdC

April 24: Camino Frances
Hello,

my shoes are pretty down and worn out now with holes in it. As it is rainy these days I won’t make it to Fisterra with dry feet. Can you recommend a good shop for shoes in Santiago? Probably capable of speaking English. I found a Decathlon City store but maybe someone got a better recommendation.

Thanks
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Yeah there is a 2nd smaller one in SdC directly, like 15 minutes walk from my place tomorrow. But maybe there are better options.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Deportes Toribio.
Rua Horreo. Quite central.

 
Also, Piteira on Rua das Orfas (in old town Santiago). They have nice brands and may be pricier because of this. But customer service is historically good and they take their time with customers. https://www.piteira.es/

And if you need even more selection, the El Corte Inglés department store is a bit farther away but has plenty of shoes. https://maps.app.goo.gl/RkpfdYtsGoeSDu9u8

Buen Camino to Finisterre!

I do like them and their Quechua shoes for the Camino
