7331 Lake St, River Forest“The River Forest, IL DSW store is excellent! I give them a rating of 10+ … the store and staff are amazing. As usual, the person that helped me was friendly, eager to help & provided quality customer service this past weekend.My rating for DSW Corporation is not favorable. VIP rewards customers are repeatedly offered savings codes; but, DSW’s excessive restrictions omit >20-30 brands from savings code use. For this reason, friends of mine & myself ignore or unsubscribe from those savings mailers or email. This past weekend, I saw a nice savings offer on the site & tried again … nope, no savings & the restrictions have actually increased. This bait & switch marketing is a waste of customers’ time & the opposite of quality customer service.”
“From the owner to the employees everyone was a great help! I found two outfits I seen in their windows for my birthday and love them! Everyone was so friendly and my experience itself was amazing”
“Jay explained the assessment well and gave recommendations based on his professional experience. Did a great job helping me with my questions and overall selection.”
“Loui Did his thing! Would recommend anyone to come here to get any work done to there shoes! great prices, great work and super honest about what work he’s doing to your shoes 10/10”
“Within minutes of entering store, I was evaluated and my feet were scanned and after a few questions, tried on some shoes that were suggested, no pressure, I did come to look at buying some shoes. Looked at a variety of options and I left with a good pair of shoes reasonably priced especially with the exceptional service”
“Huge selection in a variety of price ranges. Whether you need a cute going out outfit, new purse or shoes or formal dress for a wedding or school dance, La Jolie is the place to go. You won’t be disappointed!”
“I live in Texas. I’ve been looking for two pairs of Hokas For my family. They were sold out online and add brick-and-mortar stores everywhere. I found Waxberg online call them. They found the both the shoes at different store locations and sent them to me within a week. From now on when I need to replace the Hokas I will be using this fabulous company”
“Took my girlfriend in to get a new complete skateboard (her first one in 10 years or so) and the dudes were the coolest at this shop. they weren't trying to upsell us on anything and let us browse for a long time before making any decisions. i wish i lived in chicago so i could come back to this shop again. easily a 5 star experience you wouldn't get at zumiez in the mall (:”
“Bloch has everything I need to jazz shoes pointe shoes everything. But the best part about it is when I get my pointe shoes from bloch they already come in my skin color and they are very comfortable on my feet.”
“2nd time purchasing from this location. This time I brought my daughter as we both needed shoes for a European trip. Fantastic service. Recommended the right pair for both of us. Will always but from Fleet Feet for purchases of this nature.”
“Cheap, and fast(same day work) with great quality work. To restitch, water proof and clean my work boots was $20. And I’m a sprink… if you know then you know how dirty my boots get(black water). Bring this place all your shoes I think new or old they can make any foot wear problems go away. I will be back!!”
“My first experience at The Alley was in the mid 90s on Clark during my goth phase. That store had it all. I have since moved away from the area but try to make it in there when I'm in town. I'm happy to see that it is still thriving in its new location. You rock. ☠️☠️☠️”

8344 W Lawrence Ave, Harwood Heights“I thought my seven year old Birkenstock sandals were toast after years of neglecting to take care of them. Michelangelo proved me wrong and has my sandals looking brand new! Not only is the service fantastic but the impeccable craftsmanship is evident as well. If nothing else, just to talk with Michelangelo is a treat. Thanks for making my old Birks like new!”
“Small business. Customer service was great. They had the Uggs I was looking for that were sold out everywhere including the Uggs website. I called to see if they had them they did and put them on hold until the next day. This was about 2 weeks before Christmas. I will return to purchase again.”
“Damn. They have all the things. Worthwhile place to get some togs. If you are looking for boots...they also have those. Formidable selection of hats. Also a fine service component over in hats. Nice folks. Very few stores of this quality anywhere, but especially this far north. Their own parking (across the street)).”
“The service you receive is second to none. I've been a customer for many years and appreciate the selection in our community. Especially for footwear, and outdoor clothing.”
“First time buying construction clothes. The owner made me feel comfortable and welcomed. He was friendly and patient too.
Prices are reasonable
Definitely will be going back.”
“This is an incredible place for heels. Gary is a life-long expert. I have bought many pairs over the years. Prices are very reasonable. Going here means supporting a queer, locally-owned business. Be sure to call ahead and confirm he's in, as it's all a 1-man show and hey, life happens.”
“My "home store" even though I live in NC. I always visit (and buy) when I'm in Chicago every year. On this year's Int'l Fluevog Day, I called. Jack remembered me, helped me, and I have another pair of Vogs winging its' way to me in a few days. Everyone at this store is fantastic. I just won't be in store and take a picture in front of the "Weird" mirror.”

513 Dempster St, Evanston“Murphy's service is like service used to be. They know their stuff. The salesman (I forgot his name) asked a couple of questions and came back with a couple of styles. One was very close to what I like, but not perfect. He went in the back of the shop and came back with a couple more to try on. The first one was the one. They don't have a large selection, which I wasn't looking for. All I wanted was a good fit and a shoe for my type of workout. As for price I went to Zappos and the shoes were the same price and I got great service. Thanks”
“Super helpful staff! Walked in with a rough idea of the type of shoe I wanted (size, level of cushion, heel-toe offset) and the assistant came back with two pairs that both felt great, and advised me on which was more suitable for a novice. Lovely neighborhood local business, will be coming back!”

2938 N River Rd, River Grove“I went here on 02/10, I was looking at the guardian angel website and noticed this business was listed as a seller. I was also seeking reflective clothing at the same time. They're advertised as the largest selection of reflective clothing in Chicago so I decided to take the nearly 2 hour drive from Freeport and let me tell you, I was not disappointed and sure didn't leave empty handed. Needless to say I feel a lot safer getting out there doing my job, towing & recovery. I would highly recommend this business for all your reflective and safety gear needs. I'm definitely going to brag about this business to my coworkers!”
“My daughter father in law has problem with one of his foot. I refer to my daughter about A.M comfort shoes It was a success . He was very happy . Going back soon. Thank you for and concern”
“Beautifully curated athletic wear with solid brands. I had to stop myself before spending all my monies. I cannot wait to be back and get a hoodie and running shoes!”

“I have driven by this place so many times, and never popped in. I have been missing out. So many cute clothes, shoes, and accessories to choose from. Good quality also, which I feel is lacking from major department stores lately. You can tell the ladies really put a lot of thought into their inventory. Highly recommend for some trendy options in your closet.”

1909 W Division St, Chicago“I was there couple of months ago to buy a vetra jacket that was on sale. Since I bought from this place before I send them an email to ask if they could put it on hold for me because I wasn’t in Chicago yet but no answer came. I send a second email, still no answer. When I finally made it to Chicago and came to the shop I said very kindly that I send emails and would’ve liked at least an answer instead of being ignored especially since I’m a returning customer. The person that was there was super defensive and snippy. Instead of apologizing he just started constantly snipping at me. I thought to myself fine I just drop it cuz I didn’t wanna get into a discussion but this guy just from now on wouldn’t stop being snippy and rude to me even while I paid the jacket I bought. Very frustrating experience!Edit: when the guys from independence heard of my experience they came forward and were very nice and accommodating. Therefore I changed my rating.”
“Oh, my dear, let me tell you about my recent experience at this store! I must say, over the years, I've noticed a decline in the quality of their clothes. But fret not, they still offer some delightful sales from time to time, and I simply adore their clothes. The service, oh my, the service was truly exceptional! Though I must admit, it became a tad overbearing with all the workers continuously asking if I was finding everything alright. Bless their hearts, they mean well. They even fetched me a fitting room and kindly inquired if I needed any different sizes while I was in there. However, I had a bit of a hiccup when it was time to check out. There was only one worker nearby, she seemed too occupied with her phone. Once she finally noticed me, instead of checking me out herself, she asked another worker to assist me. Poor dear, the young girl looked utterly exhausted, carrying a stack of clothes in her arms as made her way to the register. Nonetheless, she managed to check me out and even applied the deal I saw online, which turned out to be better than what was available in the store! Overall, my shopping experience was satisfactory, but I do hope they pay more attention to the service and the weary workers in the future. Nevertheless, if you catch them during one of those fabulous sales, it's worth a visit!”
