The Shoe Company is probably the best discount shoe store I've been to. I find that the shoes here are trendier and classier than Payless, and the brands are better too. I've seen some higher-end brands like Ecco, Geox, J Lo, Nine West, Chinese Laundry, and Lacoste. The prices are fairly decent, especially during a sale, which they seem to have going on at all times.
You can find Converse All Stars here. Usually, they are the most basic colours like black, but once I saw some lime green. They were cool, if you like crazy colours.
At the back of the store, there is the Large Shoe Shop. This is where they have bigger shoes for women sized 11+. I've hardly ever found any size 11.5 or 12, but often the size 11 shoes will fit a half size bigger. This happened to my once, and I ended up getting a really cute pair of brown mary janes. I was so happy.
The store is huge, and there's also some great clothes, purses, and backpacks. I also love that you can collect Airmiles here too! read more
