Start-rite is a brand of children’s footwear.The shoemaker purportedly Britain’s oldest and one of the first manufacturers in Norfolk was established in 1792 in Norwich England by James Smith. His grandson James Southall gave the firm its current name; it rose in prominence during the 20th century thanks in part to an iconic poster reading Children’s shoes have far to go which was displayed on the London Underground for 20 years from 1947.
