LOTS OF SHOES, BUT NEVER ANYTHING I REALLY LIKE…read more=========================================== I have been to this store numerous times, but I don't think I've ever purchased anything. The store is jam packed full of shoes, but I just haven't loved anything enough to purchase. Maybe I'll find something I like one of these days. They don't validate your parking unless you buy something.

Went on a Saturday morning. There is parking, but it's not…read morefree. With receipt and validation 1.50$. I was told it was free, but still got charged in the DSW parking area. When I was driving out at the toll machine I was already trapped by a car behind me :( I paid and left... That being said.. As you walk in, looks like it's supposed to be a higher end warehouse shoe store. All the products look great, but the customer service... I tried asking for assistance, but it was hard to find someone and when I did, I felt like I was slightly disturbing their day. At check out, the person there seemed quite dismissive especially when I didn't want to sign up for a member or give any points away. As I finished the sale, I was trying to find my parking receipt and just said out loud my thoughts of, where is my parking ticket, with out even looking up, they said in quite a dismissive way and shaking their head, ' it was the first thing I handed back to you.' There was one person there who was friendly, but it did not equal the rest of my interactions. The products there are fine. Prices seemed reasonable. There was a nice selection, the store looked nice, but the personal experience there... well... when I first walked in and looked around, my expectations were high, but in reality not the best.

Nice vibe! Store is down the stairs and in a cozy location lots of local merch and kind owners!! :)read more

I'm currently expecting and the young man helped me see how I walk lol he told me I need arch support it was kinda embarrassing but also he kept it real said it would help if I got inserts or he can show me another shoe with arch support. I ended up getting socks too I loved the try on socks but I saw some nicer ones. I can't wait to try my shoes on tomorrow I definitely want to come back to get another color. I got black for now :D

My wife was looking for a pair of walking shoes, as her previous ones started to hurt her feet…read moreafter only a few uses. We immediately felt welcome as we walked in, as their associates greeted us and asked us about any questions we had. They helped analyze her stride/gait, and gave us a variety of recommendations. I wasn't in the market for shoes myself, but I was able to get my gait analyzed as well, as I had always been curious about my running/walking form, and which shoe would work best for me. After trying on a few pairs, we finally picked a pair of New Balances. They have a large selection of shoes, from brands that are popular such as Brooks and Asics, to lesser known ones such as Diodora and 361. They also carry everything else you could need for your feet/shoes, such as socks, cushioning, recovery items, etc,. I believe their prices are pretty close to MSRP, so you may be paying a bit more than if you were to grab them online with discounts, but the customer experience is unrivaled, and it's worth supporting a local store if you can afford to! They also seem to have quite a few running events, so if you are close by, it seems like a nice place to potentially find a running community. I would highly recommend Run With Us for any running/walking needs!

Plenty of options at this store, located right on Colorado Blvd. Parking can be tricky, with only a…read morefew metered spots on the street, but it's much easier (and cheaper) to park in one of the nearby public structures -- the first 90 minutes are free, then just a few dollars after. The area itself is lovely, surrounded by lots of shops, restaurants, and cafés, so it's worth making a stroll out of it. I was purchasing the last pair of Converse in my size, which happened to be the display shoes. They had some light signs of use from being tried on by others, so I asked if they could offer a small discount. The attendant's response was very dry and dismissive -- just asked if I wanted them or not, without any attempt at customer service. It left a bit of a sour note to an otherwise well-stocked store.

Natan literally went above and beyond to ensure I found what I was looking for. He exhibited managerial level of service, not sure if he is one, but he is definitely showing his eagerness and ability to fulfill the role. He offered help immediately upon my arrival and greeted me to the point where I felt seen. I appreciated that! I got a great deal on a cute two piece set, very satisfied!

They had my purchase record from years before and I could order the exact same pair of shoes that I loved. Second, they were of great help in dealing with the manufacturer with a pair of shoes I had problems with. I can't see this happening at a corporate owned store or website. I am a loyal customer forever! Thank you, Luchas!!

They had brought out a bunch of different styles in different sizes for me. Unfortunately, I would say everything was so comfortable that it didn't help narrow my decision down. They have a full sizes for most of their shoes, but for couple models they do have half sizes I think the ones are a little more sporty where they would have half sizes. I know there aren't too many days retail stores for Allbirds at all so it was a great treat to be able to try them on and not have to blindly guess a model and size that I'm staring at online. Thank you Allbirds for being so accommodating and helpful.

Found a couple that he was interested in. Inquired with an employees about a different size. He checked the back and then checked his handheld device for inventory. My son's size was not in stock but we were satisfied with the employee's willingness to help. After a little back and forth he decided on all white hightop Nike's. Fairly priced. The store seemed to get a little busy while we were browsing but we got lucky when it was checkout time. No line. No line. Fast in and out. Overall it was a good experience and I would come back to this location in the future. Bonus: they offer military discount

If they don't have the shoes in stock they will order them for me at no extra cost. They are very patient, don't rush you to make a selection, and they are not pushy. I've tried on as many as eight pairs of shoes and there was no problem. Best shoes I've ever worn and great customer service! If they ever go out of business, I'll have to walk around barefoot!

Everyone knows kids feet grow every 3- 6 mos or so and my kids toes werent going to survive…read moresticking out of his old sandals. So off to Ken's Shoes we went, in a small square on S Fair Oaks in South Pasadena. I heard this place will accurately do fittings for free, and that the shoes are reasonably priced. We got here around noon, before lunch. The lady tried to put his foot in the metal sizing device but of course my child freaked out. I wanted the most accurate size - so for us to not do the metal foot sizer test was disappointing. The lady eyeballed his foot and gauged for him to be a T10. He might be a 9 but she said shoes should have space in them to avoid the insides rub his toes. I'm like, okay, you're the expert. She has a ton of shoes here. The place has wall to wall shoes / boxes of shoes. The place specializes in children's shoes, and they do have some of the good brands. She offered me some See Kai Run sandals for $25-30 (i forget exactly)- I know that brand is fancy, so that was a good price! Crocs were about $25 (very similar to Amazon generic crocs) but the colors she had in his size were too loud. I ended up declining the Crocs and got the See Kai Run sandals. There were some other similar styles that she didn't offer, and I'm not sure if she was just not keen on pulling out as many options for us to try, but I looked around and pointed at a few things and she obliged and showed them to us after checking that she had them in the kiddo's size. But then we saw that he was settling down with the sandals she first suggested so that's all we ended up buying. She has these little toys around the store for the kids to play with. She had a battery operated Flash on motorcycle that she gave to my son for free. I thought that was mighty sweet of her. Lately, I've been avoiding shopping at big box stores and trying to exist on goods from (and support) small biz. Ken Shoes is definitely a small business that I would not mind supporting. The only issue I have is their extremely limited hours. We're due for another visit soon.
