As I've never done any hardcore shoe shopping in Berlin, Fussgarage never really popped up on my…read moreradar. But on a recent friend's visit, he discovered after less than a day that Berlin is a city requiring solid footwear, especially if you're going to be walking all over, as we did.
So as we headed home after dinner in Friedrichshain, he saw the store was still open and having a sale, and we made our way in. The shoe selection is actually quite great, with very sporty and cute shoes available. The prices are not too high, and if you go at the right time, you can actually get a good deal. The price was right, so he got some stylish Adidas shoes in his size.
Later in the week, while wandering elsewhere in Berlin, we happened upon another Fussgarage, so apparently there are two locations in Berlin. Both have an open and welcoming storefront.
Overall, not the most interesting store unless you're in the market for some new shoes, in which case, it's worth checking out.
