Unless you've been under a rock for the last few years you'll know about Iron Fist Clothing, we know they're not exactly goth but then
they dont exactly fit it any of the genre pigeon holes and we like that.  Have a look at our range of Iron Fist Shoes


Hell Bunny is one of the cutest brands around today, with inspiration taken from punk, street and retro fashion they've got a look all of their own. Check out a great selection of Hell Bunny stuff to buy.


If you're a goth and you have feet the chances are you already know about Demonia Boots, there really isn't anything else like them. If you've ever seen someone wearing a pair of boots and thought "wow, I want those boots" or "how the hell do they walk in those?" they were probably Demonia Boots


While we're on the subject of boots, we coud hardly fail the mention the giants of alternative footwear: New Rock! we love their wide selection of boots ranging from cowgirl from hell to the awesome Neptuno design. Take a look at a selection of New Rock boots to buy here.

We also love a bit of Criminal Damage Clothing. After a few seasons of more mainstream designs, they have returned to their alternative gothic roots. Take a look at Criminal Damage clothing to buy here.
