Foot Traffic

Foot Traffic has a "dividends" rewards system. When you shop you earn a certain amount of $ on your…read moreaccount. Once a year in February they give you that $ to spend in store. Because I had purchased two pairs of shoes from them recently, I had ~$20 in dividends to spend. So when I was near this downtown location, I stopped in to see what I could get. While of course this is a way to get you back into the store to spend money, there was no pressure of what to buy. Staff was super helpful in pointing me to items that would be fully under the dividend amount and therefore totally free. For the amount I had, this was primarily socks or sunglasses. I happily walked out with a new pair of shades! This is a nice perk and just another reason to support your local running store.

Morgan "Run-Shoe-Pro" gave me the lowdown on run, walk and train options. He was really easy-going, friendly and quite knowledgeable about every shoe on the shelf. Impressive! I came to try Topo Magnifly 5 with 0 mm drop. I walk 5 miles daily around Portland on concrete so I want a shoe that's easy on old creaky senior knee joints. Through the years I've worn Altra (also available here) the past decade. Topo and Altra have similar wide toe boxes. Topo fits a little bit snugger in the heel, which I like. I bought the Topo. Walked around the store with 1 Altra and 1 Topo on for comparison. Altra or Topo, either way, healthy feet are vital to your mobility and fitness. Do you want a natural shape to fit the foot better and provide the best posture for running, walking or hiking? What I think - do you Go By Foot around PDX? Yup ya say! Well, gonna be lots of peeps foot traffic around Stumptown. Do you want cool comfy looking street shoes? That support your walking mobility? Then - Go By Foot Traffic - go buy good shoes for your happy feet! 60 day exchange and return policy even if you've worn 'em.

A fabulous boutique like one you would find in NYC or San Francisco, not typically in Portland…read more The clothing and accessories are carefully curated, bringing together a refined collection of high quality items in shades of black, cream, gray, camel and white. The prices are in the high side, especially for Portland, but a cashmere cardigan for $400 is the going rate. The boutique is bright, clean and has an industrial vibe. It's easy to browse through the racks of clothing which line the parameter on racks in a color coordinated fashion. The cashmere dresses are scrumptious! Beautiful in color, texture and style; refined elegance, classic, timeless. Even cashmere loungewear, perfect for staying comfy and warm during these long days spent at home. Kayla, the young woman working that day, was super helpful and pleasant. She easily engages in conversation and provides assistance, if that is your mode of shopping. And also gives one the freedom to browse at their leisure with no pressure to purchase, which is my preference. We visited on MLK Day and were there specifically to see what Oliveve handbags were available since I had recently come across this brand while shopping at the House of Lolo in Palm Desert. Kayla immediately recognized my Jasper bag! The Oliveve bags have a modern design, clean lines, and my bag is made of neutral colored pebbled leather. It's the perfect bag to use while shopping as it is a cross body style yet as large as a tote and holds a lot. That day there was only one Olivevebag available, a black handbag with tan wrapped handles, and my friend immediately claimed it! I'll have to go online (Oliveve.com) to buy my next one, the black oiled Italian leather Eva bag, which I've had my eye on for a few months. In addition to the clothing, they have a small selection of unique jewelry and other accessories like boots, tassels to add to your handbags, hats, belts and scarves. Even a small but unique selection of home decor items like textured throws, pillows, candles, woven baskets and trays, perfume and vases.p to adorn your home. Located on NW 11th in The Pearl District, it's around the corner from the main shopping area so unless you know it's there, you may not stumble upon it. It's worth seeking out if you want to add quality clothing to your wardrobe that you can wear season after season. And while you are there, definitely check out the jewelry, boots and the Oliveve handbags!

There really is not that much to choose from as the theme here is obviously minimalist. The few things they do have are lovely and for me, priced completely unreasonably. Like I am going to spend almost $1000 on a wool trench coat with some leather trim? Sure, it's a sharp looking coat. But good God, I know we are in the Pearl but is anyone going to spend that much? Maybe I am just not hip with the times and people really do spend that kind of money on a random coat, if so, I beg your pardon. It would be cool if your shop had goods that "normal" people like me, I know I am throwing the term normal around quite loosely but folks probably get my gist. My budget for a really nice and very unique coat is more like $500.00 Unless you are selling Versace or something, consider rethinking your price points. It's just that I see so many shops like this come and go because nobody is going to really shop there. 2015 - Review # 98

If you don't mind hearing rap music that is derogatory to women, then by all means shop here. But if you don't wanna hear a bunch of really offensive sex-negative insults hurled at women while browsing shoes then you should just go else where. It boggles my mind how dumb some people are when they are trying to run a business. They must think since their shoes are mostly geared toward men, that they can get away with this kind of lazy stupidity. NEWSFLASH! It's 2019. You live in a progressive and inclusive city that doesn't tolerate this kind of sexist abusive behavior.. Get with the program dummy, or go out of business from the bad word of mouth press you'll be--and most likely already have--gotten. Ugh. Oh. And btw, my partneknew to leave without buying any shoes from you. He looked at me and I looked at him when we heard this music, and we're like....eewwwww I am not going to support a clueless place like this. -- Response to business owner's response: I can call BS when I see it, bud. Don't try to patronize me. I know slut-shaming and misogyny when I see/hear it. I don't care if it's someone's "truth" expressed as art, as you say, Micheal N. Of Index. Women have taken every form of abuse at the hands of men for millennia, and it's time for it to stop it NOW. Music that is derogatory towards women included. If you can't see the f-ing streaks in the window, then you're on the wrong side, Bro. And I'm sure you are a "bro". *eyeroll* Please take a good look in the mirror and ask yourself what's missing. read more

Upon walking into the store, the staff is incredibly friendly. The only thing a bit odd is that it smells like cigarette smoke throughout the store. I believe that is their signature incense but the first couple of times I visited, I assumed that there were people in the back room smoking. The layout of the store is easy to navigate and the minimalistic approach to their displays is a welcome change from your typical overwhelming shopping experience. Rather than display every size they have in every style they offer, they only display one size of each style. I appreciated that because it made for a much simpler shopping experience. Additionally, their sneaker selection is amazing. Every time I go in, there are a few new styles to look at. This is probably my favorite spot for finding some cool sneakers. We will continue to go back to the store for their unique styles, incredibly helpful staff, and amazing selection of footwear.

If a store decides to ban a loyal customer, the absolute minimum they owe is a clear reason, delivered professionally. Instead, I got a cryptic message and an attitude. It was humiliating, confusing, and honestly unbelievable. If this is how they treat paying customers, then it says a lot about their management and their values. I used to recommend this place to friends, but after today, I won't be returning even if they did decide to give me an explanation. There are plenty of businesses that actually appreciate their customers and know how to communicate like adults. Extremely disappointed and honestly still stunned.
