Shoe Stores in Hammond, IN

“I'm a Hammond Boy. Born and Raised, Dad worked industry, mom managed industry, industry paid my neighbors, my friends, the parents of my friends, and likely the parents of my neighbors. Industry fills NWI like Thanksgiving fills a belly. Berey Bro.s is a NWI legend, it is an institution. When my mother would put out compensation for work related equipment, she wouldn't just expense the purchase of work boots, and this is common beyond my mother, she would basically set up P/O's with berey brothers and demand that all of the workers buy their steel toes there. She wouldn't compensate any other party. I know people from the city, from wisconsin, michigan, obviously illinois in general who swear by Berey brothers selection and particularly customer service. The first time I bought work boots at berey, I was young and just thought, "boots, fit, good." but the customer servicemember who helped me said, "Sir." though I was likely a couple years younger than him, "I would recommend you try other styles, and walk around in these for a few moments while you shop to make sure they fit." or something like that.Berey isn't just about have good stuff that fits good and lasts forever, or close enough. It's Care. Berey Bro's offers a care for the customer, likely because of all of the industry in the area, and the importance of the comfort and safety of the material they sell, and likely have family or parents or friends working in any of the numerous industries there.I now live in Australia, and I brought 2 pairs of workboots with me, because they were the right boot and the customer care of Berey helped me find the right ones. Each is about 9 years old, and feel virtually new, and I wouldn't be at all surprised that their dedication to offering the best products, and the best service will have these suckers lasting another decade, with only moderate maintenance.If the day ever comes that berey must close, or relocate, it will be the loss of a local institution that people all over the midwest region know and recall. Even now, though I live in Australia, I tell stories about the simple act of buying a boot for a job, and my coworkers, the professionals that they are can appreciate how rare the care Berey offers. One Co-worker said, "Hell, I'm going to the states next year, and we might hit Chicago, might drop down and get a pair of effing boots!"That's not a joke, I sold Berey sold hard, because they deserve it, that they might be a vacation stop for some factory worker from Brisbane Australia.”

“Made a purchase today and was totally satisfied with the customer service that I received. A young lady named Briana was totally helpful and skilled in helping me with my purchase. The other staff was also very helpful in assisting me with my options! I will continue being a RedWing Customer because of the professional service that I received yesterday.”

“I'm a Chicagoan and I travel here because it is the best Rainbow ever. This store is always clean, the staff are extremely nice and they ALWAYS have the best styles. Never a disappointment.”
