Hotter shoes are one of the UK's leading footwear brands and have become well known for the commitment to comfort. Their factory in Lancashire is one of the biggest footwear factories in Britain and all their designs come from there.
Established in 1959 by Thomas and Harriet Houlgrave, Hotter started out as Beaconsfield footwear, a manufacturer of slippers. Cut to 1992 and the Hotter 'comfort concept' is born along with the Hotter we know and love today. Now owned by Stewart Houlgrave, the son of Harriet and Thomas, Hotter is going from strength to strength with outlets world-wide.
