Shoe store Soletrader has closed in Aberdeen’s Bon Accord Centre less than a year after it relocated from Union Square.

A spokeswoman confirmed the store had closed and said plans were underway to open in a “fresh new location” in Aberdeen.

However, she was unable to provide anymore information on where and when this may happen.

Founded in 1946, the global shoe and accessories retailer is best known for its quality, heritage and innovative choice of footwear, catering for both style and function.

Brands such as Veja, Barbour, Hugo Boss and New Balance are just some of the labels that were sold at the store.

A Soletrader spokeswoman told the Press & Journal: “This Soletrader location is now closing with the vision of reopening a newly designed store in a fresh Aberdeen location in the near future.”

It is the latest blow for Aberdeen’s retail offering after Holland and Barrett announced its closure in the Bon Accord Centre in August.
