Went to the shoe mill last week. Had an excellent experience. Found a great pair of wide dress shoes that will be very versatile! They had a limited selection but the sales man made sure he found us something that would work. read more

Terrible terrible customer service. I arrived at the store during business hours only to be turned away because Samantha closed the store an hour early. I explained how I just got off of work and saw that it was still open, but they wouldn't help me even though I knew exactly what I wanted. Why have business hours if you aren't going to abide by them? I chose this store because I read that it was a family run business, however after that encounter I will not be going back. There's a dicks sporting goods next door. read more

Age discrimination or just horrible customer service? Either way, don't bother shopping at this store, especially if you're older than 50. I went in after reviewing their website to try on several pairs of shoes in advance of traveling internationally. The selection and pricing on line was good and the inventory appeared pretty good at this location - one my wife and I have made purchases at sporadically over the past several decades. Three staff were standing around the cash register, one appeared busy with a customer. None greeted or offered to help me. After about 5 minutes of looking at the shoes on display and hearing *every* other customer walk in with a greeting and an offer to help, I looked around and noticed each of the other customers appeared under the age 50. I'm pushing 70. Only when I began to leave did a staff person interact with me. They thanked me for coming in and asked if I had any questions. I replied that I did & came to buy shoes but couldn't get anyone to help me. No apology. No offer to help me. Just a "have a nice day." read more

I walked in and told the gentlemen what I was looking for in a shoe and he disappeared and came back with the cutest and most comfortable boots. The best thing is that they had my husbands purchase in their system so I was also able to get him a new pair and not worry about sizes. read more

Great family owned business with excellent selection. Customer service sets it apart! Heard about this place on That Expert Show and went in to see for myself. There are a lot of places that talk about the customer experience but few that make you understand the commitment. Went to store and found exactly what we needed. read more

Shoe Mill - Shoe Stores Near Me - Tigard, Oregon

My wife and I had a super great experience with store manager Jeff today! As a matter of fact, even though the store was quite busy, both sales associates were very personable, professional and engaging. In a bye gone era where excellent customer service and true salesmanship have been replaced of big box store, buy it now, mentality, it was so refreshing to meet someone who who knew how to quickly ask a few questions and suggest a different shoe and have it be a perfect fit in every way. We have not had such old school experience in a retail store in years. Great store, awesome manager and staff, wonderful products. We will be back. Ps- found out you are part of the Birches family in our home town of Eugene. We shop there too! read more

I went to this store today to try on a pair of sneakers I've been thinking about getting for a while. I asked a woman working there if I could try them on and told her I'm a size 7. At first she told me to just try on the one on display to see how it felt, when I asked if it was a 7 she said no it's an 8. I sensed some hostility. When she finally brought the size 7 for me I tried them on and she helped me decide if that was the right size for me which was nice. She had a really nasty attitude with me when she found out I wouldn't be buying the shoes today. I'm assuming she felt like acting that way because she assumed I was just going to order directly from the brand or something, because she mentioned how this is a local owned store. But the reality is that I didn't have enough money and I was just trying on shoes to buy for my next pay period. She definitely lost a customer when she turned her back quickly and gave me a snippy goodbye. It kind of stuck with me all day how she treated me and it really made me feel bad for not having a lot of money. All the best to her and the store but I won't be going back. read more

They don't sell laces... the Shoe Mill doesn't sell laces. lol. I don't know how this place exists if it's run by people that don't think it's a good idea to carry a small item with high profits. Not like they would be taking up much room. read more

Great customer service! I had a pair of Birkenstocks that I bought here over 10 years ago that stretched and needed new holes on the straps. They did this free of charge and in under 5 minutes. They also buffered up the strap and got off some of the scuff marks. Thank you! read more

How's this for customer service? Came in just to ask about whether an issue with a particular shoe was common, and walked out with a replacement pair of shoes at no cost. I guess I had purchased a warranty that I forgot about. How incredible! And John at the counter hooked me up. 5 stars for shoe mill and 5 more for John read more

I needed new shoes for work that wouldn't ruin my feet. Shame St. Cyr was so beyond HELPFUL. He listened to everything I was saying and found me not only great shoes but socks, foot roller, and a shoe protection spray. I think I tried on over 5 pairs of shoes and he was very thorough with each pair and how they work and helped find me an amazing pair! Definitely will be coming back! read more

Walked in the door at the Shoe Mill just to browse for a pair of waterproof shoes. As I was walking around, Jeff, the sales manager ask me how I was doing today? I told him I was looking for a good pair of waterproof shoes for the upcoming rainy season. He shook my my hand, introduced himself and said, " I have the perfect shoes for you at only $40.00". It's my secret stash.He went in the back and came out with a pair of Timberland shoes that were exactly what I was looking for. I couldn't believe it! They were perfect. I shook his hand and told him that I'll be a returning customer, and that I certainly appreciated the customer service here. Jeff, thanks for the great service you and your staff provided for me today. As the famous line that Arnold Schwarzenegger made; "I'll be back". read more

My only knock on Shoe Mill is that I have to walk through the Washington Square mall to get there. I always seem to run into an old girlfriend while eating my candy necklace I got at the Sweet Factory. Old Girlfriend: "Oh, hi...uh... Arnie." Me: "It's Andy" Old Girlfriend: "Oh right. Have you met my new boyfriend Donavon?" (I shake Donavon's hand) Donavon: "Dude, your hand is sticky." Me with mouth full: "Its da canny neklace." Anyway, Shoe Mill has a solid selection of dress and casual shoes. Their customer service is top notch, which is why I brave the mall to get there. I thought that maybe the sales lady had a crush on me because she puts the shoes on my feet and ties them for me. Me with a mouth full of Cinnabon: "Diss is reely nice oft yu but I'm marrieed" Sales Lady: "We do this for everyone." Me: "Uh" Keep rockin' it Shoe Mill. Let me know when you open a store downtown. read more

I am a helper with Fedex Ground, our truck battery had died this last Friday while using the liftgate and we were stuck, we had almost no hope for quite a while until the manager of this establishment came outside, we simply asked for a jump start and he came through, Jeff the manager saved our butts when we thought we were out of options, a big thanks to Jeff Lindberg for being overly generous to us read more

I went to get boots and came out with much more. Shane is full of great customer service and knowledge about arches and feet. I would recommend this local family owned store. read more

Hands down the best shoe buying experience of my life. The employee (sorry I failed to remember the name) knew his stuff, could explain the sizing differences between the many brands, and was overall quite fun and energized about shoes and work. I ended up buying a pair for myself and another for the teenager. We will come here first for all future shoe searching expeditions. read more

Great experience at the Shoe Mill inside Washington square. I got a stress fracture on on my right foot from running. My orthopedic surgeon recommended going to the Shoe Mill to get shoes with a midfoot area that would not bend and have a lot of support. I had been in a fracture boot for a month and still was in one when i went to the Shoe Mill. Jeff, the manager, was so helpful. He worked with me for over 2 hours trying on shoes that both i had picked out and he recommended based off my injury and what my doc had recommended!! I ended up leaving with 3 pairs of great shoes. The customer service was astounding and the shoes are the most comfortable that i have ever boughten. Definitely worth the money!! read more

Kira was of great help in finding my shoes for an upcoming trip to DC. I'll be checking out the Smithsonian in my HOKA ONE ONE BOBDI 7s. Thanks for the great service. read more

I will start by saying that the knowledge of the people employed by this company is one the best I've experienced in my 'shoe-buying' adventures. Jeff, an employee at the Washington Square site, gave exceptional service, despite the fact that in the end the 'shoe and size' he recommended was NOT a good "fit" (pun intended). He should have recommended an 11, EEEE size, instead of the EE. When I attempted to return the merchandise before leaving for NY last week, I had walked around my home for a few hours and realized that these shoes were still bothering a hammertoe issue of which he was aware. When I returned to the store to return the merchandise, I was greeted with, "I'm sorry, you can't return them since you've walked through the parking lot with them on." That came from another salesperson. What? Well, after further negotiation, she reconsidered that stance and decided that customer satisfaction was more important than arguing her point. I told her that I needed a wider shoe, preferably in the same brand... which of course was not even an option. So here's the clincher for me that this company still has some work to do if they want to continue to be recognized as a company that offers a variety of options while continuing to receive endorsements by doctors, orthopedic associations and even international retail shoe critics. Make sure that a person requiring a EEEE shoe can walk out of your store with a product from your supposed 'wide' (pardon the pun) range of offerings. The only size 11EEEE shoe that might work for me was at one of their stores located 20 miles away. Yes... only one option... only one pair of those dang size 11EEEE shoes in the entire metro area that might or might not work. To me it signaled that this chain's inventory was absolutely horrible! Now, they might argue that the holiday season was under way, but this was a couple of days before Thanksgiving. No excuse for a pittance of inventory. To make a long story longer, I arrived in NJ on Thanksgiving Day. The next day I drove five miles to a nearby New Balance Store. It took 20 minutes to find a size an 11EEEE that fit, and it included a 30 day policy if I discovered any issues. Now that I'm stuck with a $120 pair of shoes that I cannot wear, however, I will do the right thing... donate them to Goodwill. So, Shoe Mill, know that my only intent of this posting was to bring to your attention an area in which you've disappointed a potential life-long customer. You lost that opportunity by your inability to follow through on your company's claims. What I hope is that you re-evaluate how you deal with guarantees and inventory. It will serve you well to change your business model and approach regarding those two matters. read more

This is absolute worst location I have ever been to. If you want to be ignored, treated like you're less than, or straight out disrespected you can definitely go to this store. The one person I asked for help seemed like I was bothering him with my questions - I took my $400 dollars and purchased my shoes else where. read more

After a HORRIBLE experience at The Walking Company, I decided to go down the hall to Shoe Mill. Thank goodness I did! They were incredibly helpful and found me the best shoe they could for my needs. They also found a good deal for me so I wouldn't have to spend too much. I usually have an issue with shoe stores because I have large feet, but they went out of their way to make sure I got the shoe I needed, when I needed it. Absolutely 10/10. I will be returning for my future shoe purchases. (Which will be plentiful) read more

I have recently started shopping here for shoes as I need a special fit yet love fashionable but comfortable shoes. The staff are trained to fit the shoes to your feet. They have been extremely helpful & I am very happy to have contemporary footwear that feels great. They are still located in Washington Square but have conveniently moved to a different space with it's own exterior door & close parking. They are downstairs under the food court near Pottery Barn. I can't recommend this store enough! read more

I had to return a pair of shoes the other day because my feet just did not like them. I wore them around the house a few times to test them out. I have some unusual problem with one foot and I'm always careful to test out shoes before wearing outside. I looked around and found another pair to buy, that have since proved to be just fine. The salesman couldn't resist having a snarky remark about the return to another salesman. He didn't say it to me, but he was rude. It's the first time I've ever went home with new shoes, and was feeling bad. I like the new shoes, and I'll keep them, but I guess I can't shop there anymore. read more

This is a shot out to Jeff Lindberg, a general manager I believe. I had a problem with my daughter being able to pick up shoes for her birthday that I was charging by phone. While the store manager wasn't able to resolve my problem at the moment, Jeff called me within an hour of receiving my email, let me know that they were reviewing company policy and was super conscientious in working to make me a satisfied customer. My preference is to support local business, and Jeff restored my confidence. read more

This place rocks. (The name of the store ... Not so much) Joey is fantastic at finding shoes for people who have been having trouble with foot pain. He really understands the foot and what shoes will make it feel better. The shoes are not the cheapest but they last and feel GREAT. Lots of styles for sore feet in big and wide sizes. Joey is my feet's new BFF. Now if he can just get the company to change the name so it doesn't should like some cheap discount store..... read more

Ron Keller gave me a great fitting shoe and took care of my hurting toes at the same time.

What a great shoe store with a varied selection of quality footwear and excellent customer service. Shane couldn't have been more patient, knowledgeable or personable. read more

Fantastic comfortable shoes. Ahmed was warm and inviting. No pressure just out of this world customer service. Wife has been going here for years, now I will follow her footsteps in heavenly comfortable shoes! read more

I have now had two great experiences here. I went in looking for a pair of boots. The sales staff greeted me, made me feel super welcome and then left me alone. I was worried they would hover over me. Once I picked out a couple styles to try on, the woman that helped me was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. She told me about the two boots I had picked out and helped me with sizing. It was a simple, comfortable process. I wish I had gotten her name. My second experience (two days later) was even better! I went back in to get the water proof spray for the boots I had just purchased. One of the sales staff, Jeff noticed the pair of shoes I was wearing looked rather beat and scuffed. He asked if he could fix them up a bit for me, no charge. He recognized that I was wearing a quality shoe that "deserved some love". He asked me a couple times if I was in a hurry and genuinely did not want to take up my time but truly cared about taking care of my shoes. While he was working on my shoes, we chatted about the brand I was wearing (Keen) and our mutual love for this brand. I asked him if there were any great Keen's on sale and he brought out a plethora of options. I ended up buying a second pair of boots, that were my favorite brand and an incredible deal!! I will absolutely return to The Shoe Mill!! BTW -- their location in the mall changed. But they are still there and still awesome!! read more

I've never had a better shoe shopping experience! Shane St. Cyr was absolutely amazing! He was very attentive and sensitive to my needs as a customer. He really went above and beyond and took the time to show me the best products possible. I bought 3 pairs of shoes, shoe protectant spray, amazing socks and a massagy thing for my feet. I'll definetly be back! read more

Went in today simply asking for a gel metatarsal shoe insert , and all sales clerk had to say was yes we have or no we don't, Instead he tried to impress me with his "knowledge" of how I needed other products and how the gel doesn't work ect...Im a Physical Therapist , and know exactly what I need. It's irritating when a sales person can't just simply answer a question. They often think the customer is ignorant, but think again. Many times the customer is a doctor, nurse or like myself a PT. It wastes my time to have someone try and talk me into something I know far more about than they do!! read more

Cory Peach at Washington Square Mall helped my boyfriend and me with what ended up being the BEST buying experience of our lives. He was impressively knowledgable, patient, and passionate about helping with any foot/shoe problems. His information about the biomechanics of the foot and the issues we both had has completely changed the way we look at shoes! We were sized wrong and had been having significant pain. Thanks to Cory, we got several pairs of shoes which feel amazingly more comfortable than all the pairs we already owned. Thank you to Cory for taking the time to help us and straighten out our poorly fit shoes!!! :) If you are having problems, talk to Cory at Washington Square!!! read more

I like to support local businesses or, at least, those with an actual store but this is ridiculous. I purchased a pair of insoles here and found out later that I could purchase them for 1/3rd less online. I do not mind a small premium for an actual store but this feels to me like gouging. I feel had especially as these insoles are nearly as expensive as a shoe. I was in a hurry and should have checked online. I will remember to do so. As for this store, never again. Fool me once.... read more

Excellent store with highly knowledgeable sales associates. Note that the store has moved to another location in the mall - look for them near Pottery Barn. read more

I actually went into the Tanasbourne location that is now closed, not Washington Sq but, I had exceptional service and wanted to share my experience! I went in to the show mill to just buy a foot lotion I had heard about for a few dollars, but ended up buying hundreds of dollars worth of shoes and orthotics because I was helped by Andrew Holmes and he was so knowledgeable about plantar fasciitis and really truly helped me! Andrew went all out to educate me on dealing with an incredibly painful issue I have been experiencing with my feet. I was about to take a vacation where I'd be walking a lot but couldn't find a shoe that I could go more then 2 mins in without pain. He explained all of the ends and out of plantar fasciitis and how to deal with it. Had me fitted for orthotics, the correct shoes and was so incredible friendly through the whole process. Andrew is an amazing salesperson and he really wants to educate his customers as well. Had anyone else been working I'm sure I would have just purchased the $5 lotion and been on my way. I love great customer service, but feel it's been lacking in the community lately. Andrew was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, quick and is definitely a five star salesman!!!! read more

This is the place to go for comfortable, high quality shoes. They have an excellent selection and the staff is very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. read more

Staff guy we talked to was helpful, friendly, and informative. I didn't feel rushed and was quite happy with the experience. Note that most of the shoes are premium with emphasis on comfort and material quality, and they have the price tag to match. If that is what you are looking for, this is a good place to try them on and find some you like. read more
