What this organisation provides
Footgear is a South African footwear chain that began with a single store in Cape Town more than 24 years ago and sells brands such as Adidas, Puma, New Balance, Asics, Converse and Reebok. Its PAIA manual covers Footgear Proprietary Limited and Footgear Holdings Proprietary Limited. Online shopping is paused: the FAQ says Footgear is taking a “Digital Detox”, so the website works as a catalogue and purchases are made in store.
In-store payment options are cash, debit card, credit card, PayJustNow and RCS. There is no Footgear account option. Instead, a lay-buy needs a 25% deposit, gives you up to 3 months to pay at no interest, and needs your ID; the shoes are released once the balance is paid. Stores will keep an item aside for a maximum of 3 days, but they do not transfer stock between branches.
Address and operating information
Head office: Unit F09, Willowbridge Shopping Centre, 39 Carl Cronje Drive, Tygervalley, Cape Town, 7530. Postal: PO Box 4110, Durbanville, 7551.
Many people search for Footgear at Canal Walk. The store locator we read on 16 September 2026 listed 169 stores and did not include a Canal Walk branch. The three stores it placed within 10 km of Canal Walk were:
| Store | Address | Phone |
|---|---|---|
| Footgear N1 City Mall | Shop 52, Louwtjie Rothman St, Goodwood, Cape Town | 087 086 8662 |
| Footgear Parow Centre | Shop F1 80a, Parow Centre, cnr Voortrekker and De La Rey Streets, Parow | 087 310 8597 |
| Footgear Cape Town CBD | 118 St Georges Mall, Cape Town | 087 086 8513 |
N1 City Mall lists trading hours of 09:00 to 18:00 Monday to Thursday, 08:30 to 19:00 on Friday, 08:30 to 17:00 on Saturday and 09:00 to 15:00 on Sunday. The store count also varies across the site: the About page says 200+ stores and the FAQ says 215+, so call Customer Care if a branch you know is missing from the locator.
Support and escalation routes
Footgear’s Refunds and Exchanges Policy allows a return or exchange within 30 days with a valid till slip, with goods in resaleable condition and in their original packaging with tags. Card refunds go back to the same card; the policy says 5 to 10 business days to reflect, while the FAQ says 5 to 7. WiCode voucher purchases can only be exchanged, and purchases paid with a mall voucher or gift card are treated as exchanges. Underwear and sunglasses are final sale. For manufacturing defects, the FAQ gives a 6-month guarantee, and the store may keep the item for inspection.
- Return to the store with your till slip; Footgear says it cannot help with a transaction without the original slip.
- If the store cannot resolve it, contact Customer Care on 087 159 7219 or use the Contact Us form, and keep the reply.
- If Footgear’s answer does not settle it, lodge a complaint with the Consumer Goods and Services Ombud (0860 000 272, info@cgso.org.za, WhatsApp 081 335 3005).
