The Good Stuff
Safety Shoes
The shop carries CAT safety shoes, making it useful for shoppers looking for work footwear rather than only casual styles.
Large Showroom
One customer found the showroom easy to reach and large enough to make shoe shopping convenient.
Helpful Service
A customer said staff changed an ill-fitting gift with a smile, suggesting a positive experience with that exchange.
Metro Access
A review places the shop very close to Financial Center Metro Station, which can make a visit easier without driving.
Tips for a Better Visit
Check Warranty. Ask about the warranty before buying, especially for trekking shoes: one review mentions a three-month warranty and a claim after three months and two weeks.
Inspect Shoes. Check stitching, soles and ribbons before leaving, since reviews describe defects appearing within a week or two months.
Confirm Size. Call or message ahead about your size if you need a specific CAT shoe or trainer; one customer found stock limited.
Use Metro. Consider the metro rather than driving, as a review says the shop is very close to Financial Center Metro Station.
Plan Parking. If driving, allow for paid parking and possible difficulty finding an inexpensive space.
Check Hours. One review lists Sunday opening from 9:00 to 22:00, but confirm hours before travelling because the wording also says the store is closed.

The Bottom Line
Medco Fashion - CAT is a useful stop in DIFC if you are shopping specifically for Caterpillar footwear and clothing. Reviews point to an unusually broad CAT range, from boots and casual shoes to safety shoes, with one customer also noting CAT casual clothes and a strong choice of sizes. Merrell products are available too.
The showroom is described as easy to reach and quite large, while another review places it very close to Financial Center Metro Station. That makes public transport worth considering, especially since driving brings paid parking and reports of difficulty finding a cheap space. One review also mentions a view of E 11 Road, though parking is the more practical detail.
There are two things to check carefully before paying. Stock can be limited for particular shoe and trainer sizes, so ask ahead if you need a specific model. More importantly, inspect stitching, soles and ribbons and ask exactly what the warranty covers.
Customers reported a ribbon coming out within a week, loose stitching in under two months and rejected exchange requests. Pricing is not bargain-oriented: one reviewer found the shop expensive and said discounts were not offered. A dated review lists Sunday hours as 9:00 to 22:00, but confirm the current schedule before visiting.
