We were at the Crossroads Shopping Center to visit another store, but of course, we couldn't leave without checking out DSW! This time, I was just tagging along and didn't have anything on my shopping list, but my wife did. While she was looking for the shoes she wanted, or thought she wanted, I started browsing the men's section. I was impressed by the size of their selection. It's larger than at a couple of other DSW locations I've visited, with a good variety of dress and athletic shoes. Although tempted, I had already spent enough on shoes this month, so I passed! My wife found a nice-looking pair of brownish summer shoes that she loved, so that was it. At checkout, the young lady behind the counter was kind enough to check a couple of different accounts under our names to find and apply some rewards cash toward our purchase. read more

I needed new slippers and decided to treat myself to designer slippers. This store is a serve yourself store. There are tons of clearance racks. If I was in that mood I may have searched through them, next time. I was there to look at UGG slippers $120 and I did and compared them to the less glamorous but also less expensive Bearpaw slippers $70. In the end I decided the Bearpaw were just as comfy and fancy enough for me. The bathrooms require you to find a person - fyi. If you join the club you get 15% off! If they send me a coupon I will come back to find a certain shoe or sift through the clearance racks;) read more

I came here with my two sons and omg I had a terrible experience. I sent in a survey and hope they look into this. I work hard for my money and do not appreciate security stopping his "route" a foot away from me and my two sons when we are looking at high price Nikes. HONESTLY, there is a Dicks right there where I have never had this experience before in my life and its more lively there anyway. I felt uncomfortable and like I was being watched when all I really wanted to do was get school shoes for my kids. Never again. My money will be spent in places where they don't follow me because of assumptions due to the color of my skin. read more

Good selection, staff is always friendly and offers good service. Tough getting in and out of this location though

Well, against my better judgment I went back to this DSW. Why did I do that? I'm mad at myself right now. 1. I shouldn't have returned to this store and 2 I should have double check the sales persons work. I purchased two shoes, gave the sales person my information, she found my membership, but didn't give me the 20% discount that is advertised all over the store. Now , I get to drive back there today to have them correct it. read more

If you want to get your steps in go to this store. Not much selection, just a bunch of the same color and shape of what is in style this minute! Thought I would have a great selection at this giant warehouse type store. Nope! read more

My favorite all around shoe store. Dress shoes and sneakers. Not usually busy and easy parking.

I have never had a problem with employees at the store with either buying or returning. My issues are with online customer service. I brought to attention of customer service that the color of the footbed in the Alegria shoes I ordered was not as depicted online. They sent me another pair. Same issue They said it would take 4 to 6 weeks to research the online issue. I have never heard back from them despite calls and emails. The shoes are still incorrectly depicted. They issued me a $10 off discount on an online order and it does not work on any purchase. Ordered a pair of suede Birkenstocks and they left out in the description that they are "synthetic " suede". Some shoes sold online are to soiled returns. read more

Prices really aren't that great. Good selection. Customer service was adequate. I will probably return.

Somebody must have died because everyone was so sad. Found the shoes I wanted and purchased them. Four stars.

Since the DSW location in San Francisco has closed down, this location has been my go-to. One of the girls that works here, McKenna, always greets us with a smile on her face and even after coming here for such a long time, she always remembers my mom and I. She is always happy to help with anything we need and answers any questions we have. Unfortunately the other people that work here aren't so nice but thankfully McKenna makes up for it. If you come here just make sure to ask for her =) read more

All the managers and supervisors I have encountered have been very rude and disrespectful and don't care about their customers and employees! The store is very disorganized and very messy shoes everywhere on the sales floor and empty shoe boxes. DO NOT COME HERE. The only ones that helped me were Rochelle and Rae. If i could I would give it 0 stars! read more

I like the deals they have, and I find their color-coded discount chart super helpful. I ended up getting two pairs of shoes. One pair from a "regular" rack while the other one from a "clearance" rack. The shoes I found on the clearance rack were such a good deal - they're Adidas shoes and were only about $15 after the discount. It was a crazy deal. I would've given this store the full 5 stars if they had put more staff on the cashier counter. This was the second time in a row of our visits where we, along with other customers, were waiting in line for a long time since there was only one person working at the checkout counter, even though there were other staff walking back and forth behind the counter doing something else, completely oblivious of how long the line had gotten. I saw people behind us getting a little frustrated just like we were. But once we got our turn, the staff helping us was super nice and friendly though. I think it came down to staff management in the cashier/checkout area. read more

I was in line and before coming I went to Starbucks. Had too much coffee. The line was super long. I kept waiting and finally couldn't hold it. I went up to the register. Lost my place in line. And asked for the code to the restroom. The register lady said no you need to wait (I'm 30 btw I look younger maybe that's why she's being rude ? ) anyways no excuse. I felt pretty terrible about myself for not being patient. But again I started to pee myself and asked kindly since she was taking so long. and she yelled at me. Truly I got red in my face and started crying and left. you guys shouldn't have customers suffering because you refuse to give a code to the restroom. All I can do is laugh Because karmas gonna catch up with y'all and how you treated me for no good reason ? You think I'm impatient ? I had to pee. We are all human. I'm actually a professional and felt really stupid interrupting you IM SO SORRY. Not. Y'all are slow and I regret spending hundreds here. To embarrass me over a bathroom code is truly disgusting. Maybe they're jealous of me ? Not sure. But truly you guys are going to regret treating people like that. Karmas real. And I hope y'all lose business read more

TIP: call ahead for a pair of shoes you're looking for. The app and web doesn't provide accurate stocks. Great customer service!! We drove up for a pair of shoes and found out the store didn't have it in stock. The associates were friendly and helpful as I'm returning a complicated order and they assured me to order online for the pair of shoes. The store was decent size, it's a smaller DSW that I've been to. The DSW in sf closed so this location was closest to me. They had a lot of shoes in stock, clearance didn't have many shoes for small and kid sizes. read more

Good store, well organized, friendly, clean. Nice selection, easy to park. I buy here regularly.

It's been raining a lot these days, I've been looking for waterproof and anti slip shoes for my brother so he won't slam his face to the ground c: . I found this place on Yelp and it's close to my house for 5 minutes. The place is really neat, all kinds of shoes are available for example, snowshoes, sneakers, crocs and even summer sandals. Because it is very organized, you will easily find shoes for children and adults. The important thing is that the price is very reasonable, not too expensive. read more

Great choices of shoe!! Bought shoe at retail and paid $125 but DSW had the same shoe for 50% less!!

I never walk out of DSW empty handed! If you love great quality shoes at reasonable prices, this place is an absolute candy store. Wonderful selection of all styles, as a shopper looking for adult women sizes and styles (though I definitely see mens and kids options are aplenty out of the corner of my eye). I have purchased shoes for work, weddings, and workouts here. You can even find great black boots in the summertime! I've never been a fan of shoe stores that require you to find a salesperson and have them fetch your size, the serve yourself method is much more efficient - and if you need help, there's always someone nearby. And until recently I thought their habit of checking that both shoes in the box you're purchasing are the same size was a bit silly, until YESTERDAY I was ready to walk out with a pair of boots of two different sizes, even after trying them on. And so I'm more grateful than ever that they go above and beyond! Dedicated parking, curbside pickup if needed, and a great app and website if you prefer in-store pickup. I will absolutely be back! read more

DSW is five stars for me. Really not sure why the average here is not more than three stars. I say: "WhoHoo! As good as it gets!" ... just keep in mind this is a "serve yourself" warehouse-style store. I want to give a special shout out to Nick who was very helpful and patient with an exchange I had on October 23. In fairness, it was early in the day and there was not a line. But I was impressed that he went out of his way to make sure that I could exchange the shoes for a larger size. The ones I needed were not in the store and will have to be shipped to Pleasant Hill from another site. I was also given the option of having them sent to me home. I especially appreciated that I was able to keep my original discounts. At some stores those seem to "disappear" when there is a change with the original transaction. Recently, I've noticed that a DSW sales person will be walking through the store and stopping to ask if I am finding what I need or if I need help. I rarely, if ever, find that at Macy's or similar stores. Some of my favorite shoes -- ones I always get comments about -- have come from DSW. I also like that it is easy to shop on line and then pick up the shoes at the store. Many of the recent DSW bonus items have been quite nice. A few months ago, I received a stylish, light grey quilted duffle bag that has served me quite well on several trips. So, yes, I am a big DSW fan! read more

Tried to buys some Nike running shoes for my daughter. Every pair of Nikes have security tags on them. Now as much as I believe in loss prevention, this store's policy, according to one of the employees, is to loop the security tag through the top eyelets of each shoe. This makes it impossible to even slip them on to see if they fit. There are no employees near the shoes, they all hover by the registers, which forces the prospective customer to walk all the way to the front with the shoe to have them remove the security tag just to see if they fit right. No thanks. It almost feels as though they don't want any business. Works great for us because we will never shop here again. read more

My favorite shoe store. Though this time I was returning some super cute heels I ordered on dsw.com that just didn't match my dress. read more

This is a really nice DSW. I was greeted right away, the employees offered assistance and answered any questions I had. My issue with this store is that the normal size I wear is not my real size here with all the designer names. Everything is too snug ( other then tennis shoes ). My size is never available in the cute shoe selection I do come across. But my friend suggested order the size you need online which seems easier and convenient. I bought a pair of Ked's on clearance and they are my first pair which are very comfortable. I will regularly wear Ked's now. I like to look at their purses/wallets on clearance. Sign up for their rewards program so they can give you a coupon during your birthday month. #winning read more

I used a gift card to purchase a pair of shoes online from the store and charged the difference to my credit card. Now after waiting 2 weeks for the she's to arrive my card was changed the amount of the gift card although the balance was full when I used it. Unfortunately we had a similar issue when my wife tried to use her card in the store. read more

Decent selections of shoes. Biggest inefficiency: Two cashiers. Two customers at the register needing to get into their DSW accounts- which obviously required a resetting of the password (bc who knows their passwords to trivial accounts?). It seems as tho a manager is shuffling between the two registers helping these customers maneuver the resetting of pw. How about you help them *on the side* & allow the SEVEN customers in line to continue on with our transactions & life. -literally writing this as I wait in line. read more

Did you ever have the situation where you bought a super cute outfit and you bring it home, look at your shoe collection, and realize that there isn't a pair of shoes in there that will go with that new outfit? Whats a girl to do?! In my case I needed Gold shoes. Gold was on my mind and I knew that DSW wouldn't let me down. I walked in and they have an entire section of Gold heels. Some of the most beautiful Cinderella esque Gold heels of varying styles and heights. I found the perfect pair of peep toe Gold heels that were perfectly priced and would accompany my outfit like I had dreamed of. Every time I walk into any DSW location I find exactly what I need. This is my favorite shoe store, ever! read more

The men's section is as large as their restroom. The company operates terribly. When I purchased a pair of shoes from the store, the POS (keep it clean) register froze and my credit card was charged. The cashier was unable to look up my transaction after giving her my DSW account information and showing her my credit card transaction. She suggested that I call a customer support line to resolve the transaction if the charge wasn't reversed within 3-5 business days. Days pass and I end up calling the support line. The rep had no knowledge on how to resolve the issue and had to place me on hold multiple times. He even told me to stop by the DSW store where the transaction occurred. At one point, he called a DSW store for a resolution. They told him I should dispute the transaction with my credit card company. WASTE OF TIME... Now I have to deal with my credit card company for a petty $65. I'm better off going to the mall/outlet so I can get clothes too. read more

I had to exchange a pair of shoes that was the wrong size that I ordered from their website. In stead of mailing it back, I went to the DSW in pleasant hill to see for an exchange, the girl her name was Kortney helped me out and told me they didn't have the brand in the store but asked if I wanted them reorder them and she could help me out. Not only did she help me out but saved me $15 dollars because they were on sale. Kortney was very helpful and friendly, she is the one that earned those 5 stars. The presentation of the store was clean and inviting. If you need shoes go to DSW in pleasant hill, but their online stores have more variety. But for my first visit to the store, I got what I need done. read more

I'm, overall, a DSW fan. I enjoy being able to earn rewards towards a $10 off coupon and often find some great brands both in store and on the web. Over the years I've gotten everything from Asics sneakers to Clarks boots, Seychelles sandals to Calvin Klein dress shoes. I was thrilled when they opened a store close to home and, while I don't get over to this DSW too often, I have to say it's one of their better brick and mortar locations. The parking is ample, since it's tucked away on the opposite side of Kohls. The layout is easy to navigate and even the weekend after Christmas, inventory was well stocked and organized. The staff was friendly and several workers were walking the floor asking if anyone needed help. I heard them doing everything from checking for sizes to offering to search for a product online. If you find a pair of shoes you love, but they don't have your size, they'll check online and help you order them. You can pay in store and have them shipped to you! It's easy to get overwhelmed at DSW, so best to come in, having something in mind. For me, I was looking for hiking sneakers this particular day-while they had a plethora of other athletic sneakers I couldn't quite find what I needed this time around. Still, taking a lap near the athletic shoes gave me some ideas on what I'd like to get for my next set of trainers. DSW is great for shoe deals and this location is outstanding! read more

Several years ago I lived pretty close to the DSW in Dublin and I can remember going in from time to time and finding a pair that I liked. I've never been much of a shoe person, and I don't really like shopping, so it's nice when I can have a big selection in front of me and just walk around until something catches my eye. This afternoon I perused the shoes at the new DSW Pleasant Hill. My husband recommended I go in there since he recently had good luck. The women's "dressy" shoes to me seemed like they were all either simple flats with not much design, or a super high heel - I'm 5'9" so I don't need much of a heel and wanted something lower, but not flat. I didn't really see any kitten heels; nothing really work-appropriate. I found one awesome pair with a low heel but they were almost out of them. They had 3 boxes left, none in my size, and I don't know if they keep any in the back. I wanted to ask someone, but... I would have loved some assistance of any kind since I was probably just looking in the wrong places, but several aisles of shoes and no worker approached me - so I went next door to Marshall's and found two adorable (and professional) pairs of shoes for work - for $19 and $23, much less than I was about to spend in here. read more

Experienced awful customer service here. A worker here was trying to sell me a pair of shoes at a higher price than what was printed on the box & I had to argue with them for them to honor the price on the box. They made me feel like I was being crazy for asking them to honor the price that was clearly printed on the box. Very demeaning language used when processing my purchase. read more

Every time I go to DSW I have to wait a long time to pay, while they have people on the floor wandering around. Yesterday after waiting a good 20 minutes to check out I asked the cashier why they didn't have more people at the registers. Got an attitude response because "who would help the customers on the floor?". I thought this store was self service? They have a ton of shoes but many are junk. Won't be going back and if you go there be prepared to get poor service, wade through a lot of junk and wait a long time to check out. Hopefully you will get a nicer cashier once you do wait. read more

I came here on a Saturday night during Quarter 3 of Game 3 of the Warriors vs. Trailblazers play-off series. If you saw the score at this time, you knew it was time to walk away and avoid the bloodshed. Given that it was Mother's Day Weekend, I decided to take Mom to her favorite shoe store -- DSW. Cheaper, great selection, multiple sales. I'm not sure why this one is voted so low. On a Saturday evening, I was delightfully surprised that this place wasn't torn apart like a loveless Ross. Instead, boxes were tucked away and not a tripping hazard; temporary socklets were well in supply. Mom found a pair of shoes she had always wanted, and we found out it was even cheaper than the signage had indicated. Score! read more

This company is such a nightmare. Everything is out of stock so had to order shoes for shipment only find out after 3 weeks of "your item is on its way" that items ordered are out of stock. Item that arrived was the wrong size. Scheduled pickup was missed repeatedly by Fedex. Never again. I guarantee you if you shop at DSW you will regret it! read more

We randomly stopped at this store on our way back to the south bay from Nor Cal. My significant other was searching for shoes. Not only did he find what he was looking for but he ended up finding 3 pairs he loved! The only bummer is that he has a common shoe size so the store was out but DSW is so awesome they will order your size for you! We opted to have them delivered to our house for free. What was most impressive about this store was their customer service! We were lucky to be helped by Nick who took his time ensuring our order was placed online for the shoes that were not in store. He also ensured I was able to use all of my rewards and discounts which saved us more $$$! Highly recommend this store for shoes! read more

They have a big selection and chance are you will find what you are looking for. OK prices.

I had purchased a pair of shoes I needed for my profession because of their oil and slip resistance and I had been incorrectly informed at the store. They have zero product knowledge and treat their customers like they are a waste of time and effort unless they are there to purchase. You are better off spending your hard earned money elsewhere but there. I will nowhere near this company going forward read more

I was so blessed with a shoes I had been looking at two to three years ago. I looked around several stores but couldn't find a comfortable supporting shoes.However, my Father away has something for those who serve him! I stopped at DSW and walk straight back to clearance racks, were my size was located and there was blessing shoes I had been admiring years ago. I praise Christ my lord ! Thanks him for shoe and the price, these shoes cost about 150 or more. I paid 40.00! What deal! read more

DSW is one of the places to go shop for shoes. I am a lover of pretty shoes with pretty prices (i.e. I do not have to give up any of my feet to afford said shoes). DSW usually delivers on both categories, so it is pretty clear why I am a fan. This particular location offers great service where you are welcomed immediately upon setting foot on the store. They are well-stocked and quite organized. There were no opened boxes in any of the aisles, and I want to chalk that up to the organizational skillz of their staff as opposed to well-behaved, considerate shoppers. As with any other DSW stores, great shoes priced right are to be found here. And it does not need to be said that all the perks and coupons that DSW sends to their customers can be used here, but in case you are wondering, I am sharing those details. I know that I will be going to this DSW location more often. read more
