As they say, ‘life is too short to wear boring shoes’, and boy, are they right. So, get out of those comfy thongs (flip-flops for non-Australians) and discover where all the shoe-a-holics are purchasing their favourite shoes of high quality for any and all occasions in the heart of Perth.
Aquila
Valuing modernity and sophistication, Aquila was established in 1958. Originally only producing shoes for children, they realised the shortage of quality men’s footwear, changing the direction of the company. This family business now holds a reputation for quality Italian shoes made through traditional construction techniques. In 2012, they added men’s clothing to their sales with European-style trends, allowing the shopper to create a complete outfit in one place.
