Great service
December 30, 2025

I previously lived near the Encinitas store and could shop in person though I have received shoes in the mail due to size needed. Always a great experience!

Love This Brand
December 27, 2025

I was skeptical about buying from a new online store. But I was pleasantly surprised about the fit and quality of their boots.

Looking for comfort
December 26, 2025

I had remembered Dansko shoes from five years ago. I decided to look for them on the website and found them even though they were not featured.
Comfortable affordable running around shoes.

Support independent shoe stores
December 21, 2025

I had a very positive experience. I was looking for these boots in particular and wanted to purchase them from an independent shoe store (not Zappos, Amazon etc) and they had a competitive good price on these shoes.

I just placed the order and so far so good. The shipping process is what I'm always more afraid of so this is still to be experienced.

Perfectly good experience. Got exactly what I ordered. Bad judgement on my part not to buy a pair of boots that are not returnable because even though they're the same size as the previous pair I wore, they feel too snug. Lesson learned.

Previous return policy was much more generous. Not happy that now required to return shoes within one month. Nordstrom is much easier to work with. I would have liked to know estimated delivery date before ordering but this was not provided when ordering online.

I google searched the shoes I wanted and Footwear, etc. was the only company that had them in my size. Footwear etc. had lots of positive feedback. I took a chance, and I got them in a timely manner. Company is very professional and follows up to make sure that you receive them.

Bondi 9: Best shoe ever!
December 15, 2025
Updated review

This shoe is better than new balance. The Bondi 9 is so comfortable and is true to size. I would definitely recommend this shoe and Footware, Etc. It was packaged well and arrived on time. If you're on your feet 8 plus hours this is the shoe for you!

Easy Online purchase
December 13, 2025

I'm picked up at a local store the day after I ordered them! I had also forgot not use a coupon on my shoes, and contacted Customer Service via email. They replied the next day and said they would apply the discount to my purchase. Very responsive!
