Press Release Summary: Pam Jenkins took to the stage again last night in London at
the 'Oscars' for the UK shoe industry, Drapers Footwear Awards 2008.

Press Release Body: Winning highly commended in the Women's Footwear Retailer of the
Year 2008 category, the store was also runner up as Best New Store in last year's
award.

Nestled behind Edinburgh's elegant George Street, perched on the cobbles of Thistle
Street, Pam Jenkins is a divine haven for shoe and bag lovers, not only in Scotland
but across the UK.

Pam Robson opened Pam Jenkins in August 2004, spotting a gap in the market for an
independent store selling high end designer shoes and accessories.

Since then Pam has personally served thousands of women, from teenagers to
octogenarians who come to the shop seeking the world's finest shoes and accessories.

Each season Pam brings together a unique collection, rarely seen under one roof,
from the world's top designers including Christian Louboutin, Jimmy Choo, Rupert
Sanderson and Chloe.

Just five minutes from Harvey Nichols and opposite the legendary Jane Davidson, Pam
Jenkins started a trend that has seen Thistle Street blossom into Edinburgh's most
stylish street for fashion shopping.

Offering a mix of fashionable, elegant and wearable shoes plus edgy 'foot
statements' Pam Jenkins is a 'must-go' for fashion insiders.

Pam Robson, owner of Pam Jenkins says: "All our wonderful customers leave the shop
saying: 'lovely shoes and I love the shop'. Now Drapers says so too! These awards
are the highest accolade in the footwear fashion industry and we are overwhelmed to
be here for a second year. Not even Edinburgh's cobbles are a match for our heels!"

Christian Louboutin remains the flagship brand of Pam Jenkins and this summer she
will stock 27 styles, one of the biggest offerings outside London. The only Kate
Spade shoe stockist in the UK, each year Pam chooses one or two new designers to add
to her collection.

Gianvito Rossi and Rodo bags were added for 07/08 and new for 08/09 are shoes by
Brian Atwood and umbrellas by Guy de Jean.

As Scotland's leading independent designer shoe shop, Pam Jenkins has a powerful
reputation, securing the potent backing of the world's most glamorous luxury brands.
