Great place for shoes and socks. We were just in there on Oct. 24th and the manager is very professional. While we were in the store there were two different couples that can in without masks. The manager asked very nicely but firm if they had masks. They did not and he asked if they had some in their car they could go get. They did not, so they left without any issues. I want to say this manager was very professional about it. Great job.

  • Ashlee Martine

Went in here last week to get my kiddos some new shoes. I had a hard time finding the shoes in their sizes as no staff was around to ask for help. I finally found them after walking around the store 3x. The prices were great. I ended up getting 3 pairs of nike tennis shoes and a pair of Clarke's for $120 bucks. It was a complete bargain! Will definitely return here when we all need some new shoes!

  • Allan Williams

Perhaps I'm getting old, but I was very underwhelmed with the styles and selection of shoes these days. Everything is cheaply made anymore. The only shoe I would have bought was a style they still make from 10 years ago. Also worth notiing, the store is a mess, doesn't appear anyone gives a rat's ass about the appearance of the floor. I see no reason to return.

  • Tina Class

Would give 5 stars if they would have honored the price on the shelf where I picked my shies from. Instead the said that they was in wtong spot and charged me $20 more. They should have honored the price they was under. I could have went to another store company and paid a lot less. Only paid the high price cause I am in desperate need

  • Jess Godwin

Amie was great. My husband wore his favorite sneakers until there were holes in the sole. He found a pair he liked there, but unfortunately they didn't have any in his size. She looked it up and saw they had it at the location on Merriam and had them place them on hold for us. She went above and beyond. Thank you.

  • Verlee Gilkerson

So happy I walked in and found exactly the pair of shoes in the style and size I was looking for. They always have a great selection and it makes you shopping so much easier to just start at famous. The sales help here we're very helpful in directing me to where to look for what I was asking about.

  • Nancy Wilson

The young lady who helped me find a wide pair of sport active shoes. With a pole from A wall. So very kind. The check out person was nice too. We pitched two pairs. One for me and one for my fallow . They are having Grate sales now and they except Milatary Discounts too.

  • Judy Lynn Osborn

Customer Service was excellent! Found a pair of shoes right for me, I am hoping. I needed wide but settled for these sketchers for style and clearance price. The manager told me if I find them too uncomfortable the next few days I can exchange them. …

  • Sam Mentesana

I was looking for another particular pair of work shoes that they did not carry any longer. The sales person knew what I was looking for and ordered the shoes to be sent to my house. Great service that I appreciate.

  • Judy Johnson

Great selections all types of shoes. If they don't have shoes in the store, they will find style for customers. Don't look for narrow sizes. Most people must have medium widths today. Staff is usually very helpful.

  • darlene wright

Yes I’m in there shopping for shoes I’m a 53-year-old grandma and I can drop in for a while to find the perfect shoe and when I go up to ask for a restroom I’m told I’m sorry ma’am we have no public restrooms here

  • Wendy Smith

Like all other businesses, they are short staffed. Maybe if they paid a living wage, more people would apply. There were 4 people shopping, and I had to look for someone to help me get shoes off the top shelf.

  • danielle ishmael

Staff could care less weather we shopped there or not wasn't helpful Nd was too busy talking to each other to worry about customers. Clean store decent selection but the staff could have been friendlybat least

  • Dawn Heun

The assistant manager Dave was absolutely amazing. He helped us in a very short amount of time and made incredibles suggestions. The prices are very reasonable here and I would definitely recommend it.

  • david pace

Tried 3 times to call if the shoes I wanted were in stock. 3 times the phone rings but NOBODY picks up phone! Why is that? So frustrating when you can't get good service anymore anywhere.

  • Well Well

Not to helpful on the floor, but that's what what do great about it. They didn't bother you to much or try and pressure you into a fast buy life I've seen other show places do

  • David Cagle

Had just what we needed for back to school, and it was bogo 1/2 off. #winning. Only complaint.. no one spoke or asked if we needed any assistance. (Fortunately, we did not)

  • Dustin Clock

Always a pleasure. As long as you don't want anything crazy, always have my size in stock. Good for work Nikes, or bags. Plenty of socks. Recommend Sneaker Ballz!

  • Bethany Wainscott

Love famous footwear! Good prices ! And I go so much because my daughter is constantly out growing shoes right now that I always get 5 , 10, $20 off when I go !

  • Paul E Moore

Buy a pair, get another pair a bit misleading as Nike is not included but good service and many quality brands at good prices

  • iisi “IIsi 50MHz” ø

Overpriced, even on sale or clearance. But then, if you enjoy paying Nike-style prices, you may find what you want there.

  • Suzanne Loyd
