This DSW on Westheimer in Houston is the largest, nicest, most organized, cleanest, biggest selection, and nicest people that I've ever shopped at. I've shopped all over the country and this DSW wins. Thank you ladies. read more

I love going to DSW whenever I need any type of shoe, because I know they'll have what I need. I am always impressed with the scope of options available. From sandals to heels to boots, I always get what I need. The staff is helpful and I'm impressed by how there are always multiple staff members ready to assist. The shoes also vary in price, with a range of brands. I was able to get some nice boots that exactly fit my mental vision with no hassle. A place that blends quantity and quality. read more

DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse - Shoe Stores Near Me - Houston, Texas

I didn't actually look around the store but I did order online for a pick up. It was an easy in and an easy out. She double checked my shoes to make sure they were the same size and then she confirmed numbers on my email order. Got some jibitz for my kid's Crocs and used a coupon which made it only $4-what a steal! Easy parking at the shopping center and a clean store. read more

Shopping in Houston, Texas... We had already been to one Designer Shoe Warehouse (DSW) and signed up for their Rewards Program. Shortly after our purchase, we received an email which gave us $10 off our next visit. Of course we wanted to take a look! This location on Westheimer Road is gigantic! Immediately, we perused the Clearance Section. Luckily, I didn't find anything and escaped unharmed... LOL! We enjoyed browsing through the many name brands... such as Nike, Stuart Weitzman, UGG, and Vans... and tote bags, hand bags, socks, sunglasses, and knick knacks. We'll be back again! read more

Not to be confused with DFW which is an airport and not a shoeport. This is a good place for cheap shoes although it's not my favourite by any stretch of the imagination. I'll probably keep coming here in future whenever I'm down Westheimer way and looking for some good deals and some good steals on sneakers, but the prices aren't as good as they used to be. read more

DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse - She didn't say why - Shoe Stores Near Me - Houston, Texas

I came to DSW was because the website tells me I can buy online and pick up here. If it's in stock, let me come in person and try them out. Not knowing what DSW stands for until I got here. I see why it's called Designer Shoe Warehouse style retail store. Unfortunately, it rubbed me the wrong way today. A white paper pasted on the door. I could vaguely read "closed at 6 pm today. Sorry for inconvenience." Ok. Security guard informed me that I have only 5 minutes left to shop. I asked where the men's section was and he circled with his arms. Ready. Set. Go. Anything orange? Not much. Anything I saw online that's here? Nope. I was able to take pictures and try anything attractive on as fast as I can... Five minutes is up. I came out empty handed. But it's ok. That's it. Folks. Goodbye. read more

The associate was so rude to me during a pickup of my order. I was so unsettled that I will NEVER GO BACK. I have been going to DSW Stores for years and have never been so embarrassed by an employee. I see that this store has a low rating already and I definitely know why. The associate number is "supposedly" 2905. read more

everyone is always nice. this is the largest DSW i have been to. it's HUGE inside. they have so many shoes it's unbelievable. they mainly cater to women. about 80% of the store is for women, maybe more. if you REALLY want a bargain, go straight to the back where they have clearance shoes on clearance. read more

DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse - Shoe Stores Near Me - Houston, Texas

DSW is my got to place to buy most of my shoes. I needed a few pair for work so I decided to go in on one of my off days. They have a large selection for the whole family. They didn't have to be real dressy so there was a large selection to choose from. After walking around trying on many pairs and looking at the prices I finally chose 2 pair. They weer both comfortable and after wear each pair for a day. I am completely satisfied. I will return in the future for my shoe shopping needs. read more

Returned some shoes and it was painless, quick and to the point...and this place is actually bigger than the one off the Katy frwy....

Ajee Had the best customer service. When I walked in the staff was so nice they were willing to help you with anything you need it. And this location always have such a wide selection and very clean store as well. read more

DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse - Great shoes - Shoe Stores Near Me - Houston, Texas

I like to buy my shoes from DSW. All my friends and family know that and I have big family and a lot of friends. So, I get my gifts especially for my birthday were shoes from DSW. My size is 7.5 and 8 sometimes 8.5. Therefore, I always go back to the store to return or exchange the gift shoes with something I like. Unfortunatly, one of the managers in this store does'nt show her respect. She asked me about the receipt and I told her I don't have it because these are gifts. She asked me to give her the following information about my family and friends: - the first and last names - the date of birth - the phone number - the fu address I don't know how can anyone give such information to a stranger. Onetime I returned an online shoes and they didn't give me the money and changed me twice and when I argued about my right, the same manager argued that this is their policy. it's so humiliating to be questioned like untrustworthy custemor. So shameful. If there are a supervisors at DSW, they can check the cameras in this store and know how this manager did to me and probably to others. read more

DSW is usually a hit or miss for me, and often, it's a miss. Sad, I know. Today, however, I went shopping with a friend for shoes for her bridal shower and some sandals for myself. We enjoyed looking at all the shoes and most times we found shoes we liked, they didn't have our sizes. :( So, we went into their clearance section, and wow! We both ended up finding what we wanted and in the size we needed! She also found a matching bag...oh yes, there bags in the clearance section! Since it's much further from where I live, I had to reduce this rating to 3 stars. . . if I could frequent this location often, then I would (and give it four stars). I may be back...if the road leads me there. read more

What's happened to DSW? They seem to be moving in a different direction lately. Almost all athletic shoes or exaggerated high heels. The better brands and normal sizes are missing. The staff used to be very helpful and competent. Not anymore. Very rude. Won't answer questions. Really disappointing. My last two visits have been extremely frustrating and disappointing. Doubt I'll be going back any time soon. read more

I GOT PROFILED AS A PERSON COLOR AND ACCUSED OF STEALING SHOES while shopping for shoes at DSW located at 7534 Westheimer Rd, Houston TX? I went in looking for a pair of Betsy Johnson Rhinestone sneakers. They had them in the store in 3 different styles. The pair I chose in my size was the display shoe. I tried them on and decided on the white pearlized style. I found the box with the other shoe and walked to the clearance section to look around. I thought to myself check the shoe already in the box to make sure they where the same size. After looking in the clearance section I decided to wait and not buy the shoes. I walk back to the area where I got the shoes, place the shoe back on the display and the box underneath the display. I walked out of the store and an employee follows me out of the store and says to me "Mam you need to take the shoe out of your purse and put it back. Our security camera recorded you. I was caught off guard and turned around and said "Excuse me" She said to me again, "Our camera's recorded you." In shock I then opened my purse and said "I don't have any shoes in my purse, what are you talking about? I then returned into the store and asked to speak with the store manager. The same person that accused me was one of the store managers. I asked to speak to someone else and another manager came up. I explained what I was accused of and of course she defended the other manager and the security camera footage which neither of them had reviewed, they where told this by someone. I asked to see the camera footage because they said it was proof that I was stealing. They wouldn't show it to me and they would not give their names, I asked for corporate phone number and they would only give me a customer service number. DO NOT SHOP AT THIS STORE IF YOU ARE A PERSON OF COLOR. read more

This location has the best options ever! So so so so so many beautiful shoes for a low price and most times This you that you select, they tell you that it's the price on the shoe but when you go to the register, it is significantly lower than what you anticipated. Is that not awesome???! Yeah so...since it's close to me... I frequent this place a lot. I need help. Lol read more

Employees take WAY TOO LONG to check out. Not enough checkers while other employees stand around. A lot of blank stares at the cash register like they've never used it. It is also SOOOO hot in here every time I come. Shoe selection not good despite so many shoes. Tried 3 times now. Always the same. read more

These two stars are only for the location and variety. This store used to have a really nice manager, not anymore. The check-out process is really poor, I had a very rude cashier, who was incompetent at her work. When my cashier finally called her manager, it was also uncomfortable to witness how condescending and dismissive the manager was to her employee in front of customers. In my experience, this store's management lacks customer service big time, yet they could not care less. I've been a loyal DSW customer for many years, visited stores in different states yet never been to one operating this poorly. An embarrassment to DSW. I am also sending DSW an email regarding my terrible experience. Do yourself a favor, go to the Post Oak or Hedwig Village stores, deal with competent and pleasant individuals. read more

All that is shoes is all that I love. I am a frugal shopper but every now and then I treat myself. DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse can be a little expensive for my taste. I can go to TJMaxx, Marshalls, Macy's, Beyond the Rack, Last Call (Neiman Marcaus), Nordstrom Rack (to name a few) and cop a pair of the same designer shoes here for a much better price. I'm actually torn between a 3 star rating and a 4 star rating. The quantity would definitely be a 4 while the price is more of a 3. There are selections for grandmother, the church lady, twerking club hopper and the tween in this wall to wall, aisle to aisle island of glorious shoe paradise. Service is scarce; but all the shoes are displayed with sizes directly underneath. So if you don't see it..they don't got it! read more

Hello, my name is Cory O. and I have a shoe addiction. I love shoes. Mostly heels. But really, any shoe. As the always wonderful Toni Collette said, "Clothes never look any good, and food just makes me fatter, but shoes always fit." I think every girl can sympathize with that sentiment! DSW is great because they have all types of shoes for all types of budgets. This one is especially great at getting those high end shoes that are still just a bit out of your price range, even though they're incredibly marked down. If you don't like self-service, this may not be the place for you. All the shoes are out on the floor and you have to, gasp, get your own shoes and, gasp, try them on yourself. I, personally, love this. There's no pressure to buy, no one to offend with stinky feet, and no one to judge you for having your toe nail polish chipping. They also carry purses and accessories, though they are seriously lacking in that department. And the best perk (for me anyway), is that they have a decent men's section so my hubby can go find himself a present while I enjoy my shopping (we've bought two pairs of Allen Edmonds from them!). And before you leave, don't forget to check out the clearance section in the back. You'll never believe some of the prices that you can find for great shoes. read more

I'm a guy and I like shoes. Shut up. DSW is a fantastic place to find great shoes and outstanding prices. The sales people are very helpful - not like most discount stores - and they have a TON of shoe options in a wide range of sizes. I wear a pretty average size 11 and I rarely find a shoe that I like that isn't in my size. Their shoe offerings are very diverse as well with everything from tennies to flip flops to dress shoes. I personally wouldn't recommend them for athletic shoes, but if you just want walking around sneakers, they fit the bill. You may also want to search elsewhere for boots, but who searches a regular shoe store for boots? My nicest pair of dress shoes - a really nice pair of leather Italian loafers - came from DSW at a DEEP discount. My favorite thing to find at DSW are casual shoes from brands like Sketchers and Steve Madden. I always seem to drop money in here when I go, so I can't go often. read more

The best thing about DSW is the variety of shoes for men, women and kids. Play shoes, dress shoes, formal shoes, sparkly shoes, boots, sandals, flip flops, high heels, low heels, no heels.... If you name it, they've got it. I have two issues with DSW: (1) the lack of assistance from the sales people, but it may not be entirely their fault. It never seems like enough people are working to assist the customers in the store, and (2) I rarely walk out with a purchase because my size, 10, is never there. If this is a popular size, then why not stock more? I'm just asking a legitimate question. Overall, this is a great place to shop for shoes. Parking is never an issue, they will send coupons via regular mail or email and they're always having sales. Oh and the clearance rack is where some of the best deals are found. If you have never shopped here for shoes, you should give them a try. Hopefully they'll have your size. read more

Why oh why oh why didn't anybody explain the appeal of this place to me sooner?? I had an urgent holiday event a few weeks back and I scored a pair of $70 shoes for $10! With the $10 reward certificate they just mailed me, it's like a free pair of shoes. Come on! Also, their clearance events. Did someone say D&G for 90% off? Yes, they did. There's a lot of ugly here, I won't lie, but the environment is like a regular store, not like discount deathmatch, so you can sift at your own pace. Also, there's none of that why-are-there-two-right-shoes-in-this-pair mayhem, at least from my limited experience. read more

Aaaaahhh shoes. Just going into this place makes me happy. Aisle after aisle of shoes lined up just waiting for me to try on. Talk about retail therapy. If you can't find it here it doesn't exist! There are always some really good deals to be had and even the stuff that isn't really marked down is cheaper than retail. More money to buy more shoes... Make sure to get their customer courtesy card and sign up for e-mails. Several times a year they have double and triple point days and those $10 certificates pile up quickly. I think you can use up to 4 on one pair of shoes. Sweet!! read more

Got an hour to kill? Love shoes like they are your first born? Looking for that exact shoe to match your new outfit? Well, say hell-o to DSW. With 34,000 pairs of shoes under one roof (and all at discounted prices), it takes major restraint to walk out of here without a couple pairs of new shoes. I'm like a kid in a candy store when I step into DSW. This new location replaces the old DSW off Westheimer and Dunvale and is in the same shopping center as the Barnes and Noble/Michael's/REI at Westheimer and Voss. The new location has a much improved layout (similar to the other "warehouse" looking locations). Also, boys, rejoice, they have the largest men's selection that I have seen at a DSW (probably close to 4 long rows)! DSW provides the easiest and most simple way to shop for shoes because everything is well organized and you can help yourself to trying on shoes. None of this try-to-flag-down-a-salesperson-then-wait-10-minutes-for-him/her-to-bring-your-shoe-back business. The shoes are right in front of you, and they almost always have every size available. Sign up for their rewards card and don't forget to check out the clearance racks in the back. With so many shoes, it could easily become overwhelming, but fortunately everything is always neat and clean which makes for a pleasant experience. read more

I have never walked out of a shoe store happy. I'm usually questioning whether I really needed that shoe, if I didn't just buy the same black kitten heel or sporty mary jane I always get. But today was a first. I got shoes I needed (for weddings, yuck) that I actually liked and at crazy prices. I mean I started in the back at the sale rack until I realized practically all the shoes were well below regular prices. I spent hours perusing the aisles (always have to go with a goal in mind or you get trapped) just to make sure I didn't miss something amazing. A few moments of sadness when they didn't have my size out (I guess I could have asked someone) but I was quickly distracted by a new pair. Never shopping at a department store, a boutique, or Payless again! Can't wait for those membership perks to kick in. read more

Aside from having a nice array of shoes (some not so nice tho) and always having my size (a common size 7) I just need to state for the record that the sales people here are so nice and helpful. I was greeted by a few different friendly people who asked if I needed assistance, but not once did they try to "sell" anything to me, nor were they overly pushy. One very nice guy saw that I was lugging my boot box around so he very kindly offered me a handy bag to carry them in while I continued to shop. I find in discount places like this sales people tend to not really give a crap about customers and can come across as bothered by your presence, but not at DSW. Everyone was just super friendly and I will definitely go back because its always a pleasant experience. P.S. I'm loving my new boots! read more

I love the coupons! What's awesome about this place they honor expires coupons and you can apply up to 3 coupons per a transaction! Or 2 for each item! I'm such a shoe whore & not allowed here :( read more

I didn't even know the location changed. The old DSW was on Westheimer and Dunvale this new location isn't too far and in a little nicer location. I popped in to see the selection of winter boots were still out (Early Feb.) & sad to say there really wasn't much, I guess I was too late. However, they did have a ton of other shoes and I would say it's pretty comparable to the Galleria location. read more

If you have to wear business or BC clothing, you can get some killer deals here. Mention Allen Edmonds and the older staffers will tear up a bit and guide you to the right crevices. But if you like the conveyor belt stuff like xxxx cole, cole xxxxx, they have all that brand X stuff too. read more

So many shoes so little time. Today was on a mission for hiking shoes. They have every type of shoe for a women except hiking shoes. Slippers, sandals, flip flops, boots, running shoes, dancing shoes, going to wedding type of shoes. I don't feel like wearing shoes so I'll just wear some see through shoes. They have even added a kids section now. Okay I spent an hour here and have to leave before I grab a pair of cute shoes I saw on sale. read more

This place is a pretty nice size, but lately I have had a hard time finding shoes that I like. This has happened maybe the last three times I have came here. I just walk away empty handed. read more

Love the new location... And that you can use coupons with your member rewards on top of the clearance and/or sale prices... Great styles, trending with the fashion world. read more

New location has easier parking and right next to Rei. Good selection, bought a pair of pink Adidas running shoes. Help is plentiful. I'd recommend better benches as they seem quite petite. read more

I ordered and paid for shoes online and was given the option to pick them up in the store. I went to pick up the shoes and still had to wait in line with everyone shopping/paying in the store for over 15 minutes. I placed the order online to avoid the slow lines here..... You definitely get the service you pay for. They could sell a lot more shoes with a quicker way to checkout. Next time I will just go to Academy for sneakers. read more

Hello! Shoes! I live for shoes! And this place is like a warehouse full of them! Heeeaven! Good deals, lots of selection, the lady I talked to (Samantha was her name I think) was real helpful. Thus, good day of shoe shopping! read more

Wow! This place is huge compared to the other stores and clearance (my go to) was three aisles long for my shoe size. Found some very cute shoes although many of them were not super comfortable. Finally found a cute pair I could wear and for a reasonable price. Staff did come around and ask how I was doing. One comment Dsw, please carry more wide shoes! This Asian American has big feet and I'm sure I'm not alone. read more

Very large store and a huge variety! Cashier wasn't very friendly, barely said anything. Found a nice pair of flip flops and found another pair but they only had two sizes left. read more

To me, this store seemed to be larger than most others! HUGE women's section, I was there almost 2 hours browsing......mainly because I am extremely indecisive and have a really narrow foot to fit ;) I found the employees to be friendly and helpful. I do agree that DSW's prices can be on the higher side compared to the actual brand of choice being on sale elsewhere, yet I still I find myself driving here due to the variety of choices offered. And I only give them 3 stars because I wish they carried narrow shoe sizes!!! I mean if they can carry every boot variety in a "extra wide calf size", they could offer a few narrow boot sizes.......please read more

I'm not a shoe addict (one of the few, I know); however, I do appreciate beautiful, well made shoes. I don't want to waste my time with junk, so I typically shop at stores that cater to higher end shoes. I have shopped at most of the DSWs in town, and I have to say they are NOT all created equal. In my opinion this one is the best by far. I'm pretty sure it's the biggest too. Both this one, and the one on Post Oak have a section for higher end designer shoes, but this location had a better selection. It also has a large markdown section. I highly recommend to hit this place up at the beginning of boot season. It's like boot paradise. read more
