It's larger than I would have expected from the outside. The women's larger shoe section is a little sad and disappointing, though. Their merchandise fluctuates, obviously, but I think they have a smaller handbag section and not as many watches/stuff in the case as other stores. However, it can be significantly more pleasant to shop--even on the Clear The Rack weekend, the store was relatively (to a few other stores--I went to a few) quiet, and there wasn't much of a line. Parking bites. This little corner of the HIP shares the lot with a Panera, Comcast, Red Robin, and 24 Hour Fitness. Luckily, if you don't find parking above ground there's an underground lot to use, and since it's a mall there's parking at the other end as well as rooftop parking.

The woman showed me to the sizes I needed and showed me a pair, but wasn't able to offer much help--when I mentioned I thought I'd check a bigger size she pointed out but said she needed to go clean up. I guess this is the difference between coming to a place like this and visiting a place like Carrara Children's Shoes, where there's a larger selection and considerably superior service. But I got a cute pair of New Balance shoes for the little one, and it was helpful that the saleswoman mentioned they have a wider toe box than a brand like Nike, which is better for little feet (and it also made me realize why I don't like Nike shoes). They aren't cheap--the shoes were $50--but we were in and out in about 10 minutes.

The selection was scarce. We asked a worker to size her feet but he said he only had a sizer for infants so he eyeballed her shoe size. He was a really nice guy, but seems like this location was very limited. The prices were too high for some of the shoes as well. Also, this location was very dark inside. A lot of the lights weren't on or working. Seems really run down. If I had to guess, I would say this location is close to closing their doors, but if not, then they really should.

With a fancy dinner date on the agenda for 8/15/18 (@ Momotaro, amazing review pending), a visit to this DSW was necessary. I was in need of some new black dress shoes, and I knew I'd be able to find what I sought, having bought brown loafers here in the past. We headed straight for the men's formal section and tried on 4 different pairs of suitable shoes. The beige "foot covers" are totally bullsh*t, they don't cover your feet or provide any sanitary barrier at all, so I had to buy a 3-pack of socks in order to try on shoes, as I was wearing flippy-floppies. Finally settling on some shiny size 12 Dockers (priced at $80, not bad), I took my purchase and got in line. Employees were speedy and hopped into action when the check-out queue began to grow, opening multiple registers to deal with customers faster. After a couple trips here, I can safely say that Designer Shoe Warehouse has exactly what you need at an agreeable price. Recommended, yo!

I figured I would find some comfortable shoes for her since she's in her retirement years. I spoke to a woman named Britney who I found to be very passive aggressive and rude . I tried to explain to her that my mother had certain issues with her feet and I figured she would be helpful recommending an appropriate shoe since she should be a "shoe expert". She wasn't helpful, all I got was attitude and she pretty much told me that I should just bring my mother directly to the store. Mind you my mother just had foot surgery and is not able to come physically to the store at this time. I did not appreciate this type of response nor did I appreciate her scattered attention since she decided to be more attentive to some shoes on a cart. I would definitely have a better experience shopping online than dealing with an unprofessional individual who decides to focus on ripping off the tops of shoe boxes. The other sales associate was pretty helpful though. She was definitely more attentive and helpful than this woman I initially tried to get customer service from. She took the initiative to help me and was empathetic in my attempt to look for a comfortable pair of shoes .First time coming here and most likely the last. Not the best experience.

I begin to explore seeking professional assistance since I believe I have an impulsive buying habit. The only option open to me is to return the shoes; shortly after completed, the app will generate a bar code and present a list of actual stores around me. I chose it due to the fact that it is close to where I work. I went there during the middle of my lunch break on a weekday and was astonished at how busy it was. this store doesn't have an area devoted to return items, so I had to stand in line with the rest of the people. I estimated that I stood in wait for around 15 minutes. Finally, when it was my turn, the cashier agent asked reasons I was returning, and I told why. She examined the shoes to ensure they hadn't been worn, scanned the bar code, and asked me to swipe the card that I paid with. The issue I didn't have a physical card with me, but because their device supports NFC, it can accept my digital credit card copy and it works perfectly. I didn't have time to tour the store because I needed to hurry back to work. I was irritated that I had to wait so long just to return one item. The only thing I can say is that the return process was made simple.
