Doug runs the place and he is great! Extremely knowledgeable and clearly has a passion for helping folks find their fit. We came in with our 8 month old and almost 2 year old. Doug is incredibly patient with children, and has a good sense of humor about things. Highly recommended and we will be back!

Great place to get quality shoes for little kids. Doug was really great. He was patient and kind to our toddler and helped him find shoes that he liked, that fit well.
