Gravity Pope on Whyte Avenue.
Jeanette B.

I've been going to Gravity Pope for a long time and 15 years ago, this was a very different store. They used to focus more on very casual fashion. When I was a teenager, I bought a Smurf "boozy" shirt here. (Those were the days.) But over the years, their fashion has become more edgy, funky, and expensive. Gravity Pope now focuses mostly on shoes, and they have grown to have the largest and best selection for funky, stylish, and just plain awesome shoes in the entire city. Their selection is wide, from very casual to very classy. I think that most anyone, both men and women, who walks in here can tap into their personal style. Most of their shoes are very expensive and not really affordable for me. Not that it matters anyway, because I wear size 11.5, and they very rarely carry anything in this size for women. This annoys me, because I know that a lot of the brands they carry have up to size 12. I actually emailed GP's manager about this, but it was like he didn't even know. Even so, they have a nice selection of unisex sneakers like Converse and Pony. Be careful before opening your wallet here though; I've seen many of the shoes they carry on the Internet for less.

Gravity Pope is a shoe diva's dream, but dreaming is when I shop there! Needless to say it's pricey. However, their selection is WOW and you'll find shoes there you won't find at the mall from heels to flats, boots to running shoes. Trendy, trendy, trendy! I will say I bought a pair of walking shoes that were worth every penny! I wore them until the sole wore through. You will get good value for your money though. Gravity Pope fits perfectly into the retail offering of Whyte Ave. Dont' feel out of place when you walk in as you may be greeted by a young "I don't care about you" attitude and lack of service. Go for the shoes, not the service.

I wouldn't call myself a shoe addict by any means but I know a couple who would probably need rehab after this store. They have such a great selection of unique shoes, classic looking ones as well as futuristic. I think the best word to describe their shoes is funky. I would definitely stop in here when I am looking for a new pair of shoes or sneakers or kicks or whatever they are being called these days. Some of the prices are very ridiculous, especially for girls but most of their stuff isn't outrageous. I don't think any shoe lovers would be scared off by the prices. The staff is really great too.

I think gravity pope is a little over rated to be honest with you. Yes, the shoes are good quality. And yes, if you shop at gravity pope you are probably the coolest person in your group of friends, but you got these good quality hoes and cool persona at a high cost. I can't afford most of the shoes here, but sometimes they have really awesome sales. The last time I was in there they had a 2 for 1 sale, which really surprised me. But of course the sale items are last sizes and styles, so if you find a pair you like, you had better hope they are in your size. The people that wok here are also pretty helpful but there really isn't anything special about the way they help you. You want good quality shoes and a cool persona? Open up your wallet!

Pretty shoes. Such pretty shoes. Everyone needs pretty shoes to help those feet thingies look, well, better!! I'm just not a fan of feet, but Gravity Pope helps me love them just a little more. This store has some of the best shoes in the city as far as I know. They carry all sorts of shoes from sneakers, to heels, to flats, to boots to men's sneakers, heels flats and boots! I love the smell of leather as you walk in. I fell in love with a 500$ pair of boots that unfortunately, I don't think I could ever own, but I sure enjoyed looking, touching, and trying these beautiful boots. I settled instead for a lovely pair of flats that I know I will enjoy for a long time. This store is great for unique fashion finds and all sorts of funky shoes that will be sure to stand out. There are plenty of hard to find Brands here and just overall shoe love for those who care to part with some cash.

Gravity Pope is definitely eye-candy for your feet. If you're a shoe fanatic like me, you have to be careful and space your visits here, otherwise you'll be bankrupt in no time. They have some of the top brands for trendy tootsies, but you'll also be paying high-end prices. Their sale prices are pretty reasonable, but that's when they do go on sale, which isn't often. The store layout is mostly trendy and dressy shoes and boots at the front, with women's on the left and men's on the right. Towards the end of the store you start seeing more of the casual and comfortable shoes, but still very pricey. If you want a whole Gravity Pope outfit and have the money to splurge, check out their clothing store Gravity Pope Tailored Goods on Gateway Blvd, just near the Old Strathcona Farmers Market.

Bow to the shoe gods.

I tried pretty much around the same amount on at Gravity Pope and ended up finding a cute pair of Clarks.

Popped into Maggie Walt Design last night and browsed during a private shopping hour prior to an…read moreElite Yelp Event. I was super impressed by the staff, ambience, gorgeous threads! The shop was beautiful and while the clothing was definitely out of my price range there were many gorgeous and affordable accessories ranging from handmade jewellery to bath products. There were even some super cute reusable bibs for wee ones (I'm a mom so I tend to gravitate to these things). Maggie Walt was super friendly and easy to talk to! She has a beautiful shop full of unique and one of a kind pieces of art - I would definitely refer to her clothing as works of art. The fabrics were amazing and come to find out, she travels the world in search of the perfect pieces. Maggie Walt is a wonderful addition to the Edmonton fashion landscape and I hope she enjoys a long and lucrative career here! And as an aside, she has a super secret room in the basement where she holds events and fashion shows! AMAZING! http://www.maggiewalt.com/ I uploaded some pics - Check them out!

There is casual to formal wear, but most of it leans more towards the formal end, with all the colors and materials she uses. Lots of taffeta and tulle for extra sheen and poof! She also sells originally designed jewelry, beautiful pieces with big stones in them. I liked the soft and exotic ambiance of the shop too. There was Indian music playing, and the dressing rooms are draped with these big silky orange curtains. It makes me feel like I'm shopping on vacation somewhere in South Asia! The staff are very courteous and helpful. While I was browsing, another customer came in explaining she had lost one of her earrings on vacation, and could they replace it for her. The saleslady on shift helped her look for another; although they weren't successful, she took the customer's contact down saying they'd call her when they do get another shipment in. It's obvious they care about and appreciate their customers here. Right now they're having their Birthday Sale, where everything is 30-50% until Sunday. A good thing to take advantage of!
