Quick answer: For affordable runway-inspired heels, Charles & Keith is the go-to. Pedro nails polished office styles for men and women, while Anothersole serves buttery-soft sneakers. If bespoke luxury is your thing, Mashizan crafts statement heels. Palola makes handmade Italian-leather flats, Pazzion bridges day-to-night glam, and Sunnystep brings science-backed walking shoes that are damn shiok after a full day of errands.
If none of these quite fit, Best Clothing & Shoes in Singapore has 32 lists covering the rest of the category.
Charles & Keith
Charles & Keith has become a household name for Singapore women who want catwalk silhouettes without the catwalk price tag. Their heels and flats turn up everywhere lah—from Monday boardrooms to Saturday brunches at Tiong Bahru. The brand cuts its shoes in all the shapes you scroll past on social feeds: kitten heels, sculptural boots, sleek flats that somehow stay breathable in our humidity. You will find more than shoes too; their bags and accessories complete the look without needing a separate trip.
You can walk into their 313@Somerset store at Orchard Road #02-46/47/48/49, Singapore 238895. It keeps regular mall hours, usually 10am to 10pm daily. Give them a ring at +65 6509 5040 if you need a specific style held. Charles & Keith has the full collection online as well. Great for anyone building a versatile work-to-weekend wardrobe on a real paycheck, without feeling paiseh about the price.
Pedro
Pedro is the one you recommend to a friend starting their first office job and wanting to look the part. It straddles men’s and women’s collections with a clean, almost architectural feel—loafers with an unexpected buckle, block heels in muted tones, classic sneakers that won’t clash with a blazer. The palette stays in rich neutrals, so mixing and matching with workwear is a no-brainer.
The Anchorpoint store at 370 Alexandra Road, #01-29, Singapore 159953, is open 10am to 10pm daily, and you can reach them at +65 6472 6963. Browse ahead on Pedro. This one suits the polished professional who wants one pair of shoes to carry them from a client pitch straight to dinner at Dempsey, no change needed.

Anothersole
Anothersole wins you over the moment you slip your foot into their 247 sneakers. The full-grain leather is so plush you might forget you are wearing a new pair—no breaking-in, no blisters. This is a Singapore brand that puts real weight behind its conscience, donating a portion of profits to sustainable community projects. Walking around knowing your shoes helped someone else is pretty steady.
Their essential styles—like the Lucie II travel flat—are built for long days on your feet, whether you are exploring Haji Lane or standing through a weekend pop-up. Head to Bugis Junction, 200 Victoria Street #02-18C, Singapore 188021, open 11am to 9pm daily. No phone listed; check their site for the latest stock. Find them at Anothersole. Ideal for the person who prioritises comfort but still wants a shoe that looks presentable at a café.
While you are refreshing your shoe cupboard, you might eye Singapore&# ;s Elite Fashion Backpacks for carrying your daily essentials just as thoughtfully.
Mashizan
Mashizan is where you go when you want a pair of heels that tells a story before you even speak. Founded by a Singaporean designer with time in Paris and NYC, every shoe is handcrafted in Florence. Think snakeskin sandals, jewel-toned pumps—pieces that make a gallery opening feel like your personal runway. They run “Fit For A C-Suite” sessions for personalised fittings, so the final product truly belongs to you.
There is no permanent shopfront; they operate online and occasionally pop up in heritage neighbourhoods like Joo Chiat. Visit Mashizan to see upcoming events or book a fitting. This is for the woman who already has the basics and wants something that mirrors her confidence; celebrities like Viola Davis and Chrissy Teigen have walked in them, so you are in assured company.
Palola
Palola takes the slow-fashion route, handcrafting made-to-order ballerina flats and slides right here in Singapore using leathers sourced from Italy and Spain. The result is a shoe that feels almost custom-fit from the first wear, with a timeless elegance that whispers rather than shouts. If you have ever walked away from a high-street find because the cut pinched or the colour was just off, their Duxton Road atelier is a breath of fresh air.
Find them at 68 Duxton Road, #01-02, Singapore 089527, open Tuesday to Sunday, 11am to 7pm. Call +65 9611 4134 or browse Palola. Suits anyone who values fit and finish above chasing trends—your feet will thank you after a long wedding dinner.
Pazzion
Pazzion is the label many Singapore girlfriends swear by when they need genuine leather shoes that can handle a full shift at the office and still carry them to a bar afterwards. Embellished flats catch the light just so, while metallic heels add a bit of party spirit without being over-the-top. The leather is soft from the first step, and the range of bags means you can colour-coordinate without hunting through multiple shops.
The Takashimaya outlet at 391 Orchard Road, Ngee Ann City B1-39/40, Singapore 238872, is open 10am to 9:30pm daily. Call +65 6876 1211 to check stock. Browse the collections at Pazzion. Perfect for someone with a full social calendar who does not want to compromise on comfort or style.
Sunnystep
Sunnystep took the science of walking and packaged it into shoes that actually look good. Their balance runners and elevate sneakers come with arch support, acupressure insoles and a lightweight build—details your knees will notice by lunchtime. Designed specifically for Asian feet, they cut down on that frustrating heel slip you get with imported brands. They even organise community walkathons, so you might discover a new kaki while testing out the grip.
With 12 stores islandwide and a solid online shop, you are never far from a fitting. Most outlets run 11am to 9pm; check the store locator on their site for exact hours. No central phone line; reach them through the site. Visit Sunnystep. This one is for the active person who clocks serious step counts walking from Raffles Place to Tanjong Pagar for lunch, and wants shoes that can keep up.
And if you are looking to perfect the fit of your entire wardrobe, these Refine Wardrobe alteration services can make every piece sit just right—another layer of smart spending.
How to choose
Think about where you will actually wear the shoes most often. If your life revolves around an office with a smart-casual dress code, Pedro or Pazzion give you that put-together look without punishing your feet. For weekends and travel, Anothersole and Sunnystep prioritise all-day cushioning and support; the difference is in materials—Anothersole goes for premium leather, Sunnystep leans into tech-forward soles.
Those who enjoy the ritual of bespoke purchases should spend time with Mashizan or Palola. Mashizan is bolder and event-focused, while Palola keeps things quiet and elegant for daily elegance. Price points range from accessible high-street (Charles & Keith, Pazzion) to a considered investment (Mashizan, Palola). Mid-range labels like Pedro, Anothersole and Sunnystep sit in between, offering quality that lasts years if you rotate your pairs.
Ask yourself two things before buying: does the shoe style match three outfits you already own, and can you walk a full MRT transfer in them? The shops here all welcome fittings, so take your time. And remember that genuine leather stretches slightly; if it feels snug but not painful at the try-on, it will likely mould to your foot beautifully.
