Walked in and bought the first pair he brought out for my teenager to try on. This has never happend in her life before. So amazed at the owners knowledge.

Needed new steel toe shoes. Best selection, price, and wonderfully helpful staff! Add to that it was all done with me stepping in the store just minutes before they were due to close!! Thank you!

On 6/18/2025 Christina Kelley had this to say:
The gentlemen were very helpful and knowledgeable about all the shoes and different styles and other products such as insoles. Friendly, Courteous, and professional!

On 6/11/2025 Jenny DeLosh had this to say:
I went in today on behalf of my boss who was looking for a new work boot. She likes the brand she currently wears and wanted the same or very similar pair. She sent me pictures of her boot, the ladies at the front desk were fantastic in able to help me find what we were looking for! One staff member even tried the boot on for me since she is the same size as my boss to ensure it would fit! Then they hooked me up with a nice pair as well when I’m out on the job with my boss. Being a chimney sweep, my boss is on her feet all day long and these provide comfort. We will be back in the future for purchases and as our business continues to grow, we will send our employees here!
