WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT US

“Been using TW Ryder since I was nine years old. Returned today after a few years. What an amazing shop. Work trousers are excellent. Staff are so friendly too. Highly recommended for work clothing or if you’re in the cadets. Will be returning.”

William Timms, Google Reviews

“Always enjoy a trip to this store immensely! They always have something I need or want in stock. My go-to shop for all stuff needed for the big outdoors, etc. They also stock a large range of Army surplus, boots + if you need any D of E award items for young people – this is the place for you. Hats, gloves, rucksacks - it's all waiting for you here! Would not hesitate to recommend and looking forward to my next visit already! Oh, and the staff are very friendly and obliging.”
