About Us

We are Devon Shoes.

Our journey started in 1993.  We opened up a store in Coquitlam, B.C. and our original name was 'Uptown Shoes'.  Some issues occurred with that name between us and 'Town Shoes', so we decided to change it up.  Our two founders brainstormed a commonality in their lives that could be the potential new name for the business.  One went to boarding school in Devon, England, and the other had a favourite art gallery called the 'Devon Gallery' which was located in downtown Vancouver.  So from that day on, the store would be called Devon Shoes.

Since 1993, we have been through a lot of obstacles.  Covid especially, like a lot of other small businesses, had a very negative impact on our company, but with the help and support of our vendors, hard working staff, and most importantly our amazing customers we made it through.  We are forever grateful to still be in business over 30 years later.
