I am diabetic and suffer from neuropathy in my feet, especially my right one, which makes me walk with a limp. I was greeted promptly and after explaining my situation the gentleman showed me some options. I settled on a nice flexible, athletic type shoe. The shoes I had were 4E, the ones I required were 6E!! You can imagine the pressure. We added some thicker inserts for added cushion and let me tell you...the relief was immediate. Best purchase I'd ever made! Was a little steep but well worth it.

My 300th review!!! Fitting it should be for a great visit to this SAS shoe store :)
Shoes are not something I like spending money on (some shoe shopaholics will faint at this lol). However, I have wide flat feet/no arch and as I've gotten older my cheap shoes are killing my knees. SAS to the rescue. This is not a large store, the styles and sizes are limited. But they still had a few options for my double wide size 10 (no easy feat haha)!! As soon as a entered, a saleswoman asked if she could help with anything. I told her what I was looking for and she set out to find me some shoes. At

Service is the worst here. Don't expect to be treated nicely even though you may be dropping some Benjamin's. The sales clerk was so rude and acted like I couldn't afford the shoes here. When I clearly told her what shoe my husband wears. I will definitely look online and see if I could get his shoes somewhere else! She was so rude even my teenagers thought she acted racist.

Hoping the shoes are as nice as the ladies at the store. Never spent so much on a pair of shoes and all sales are final

Unsatisfactory drove over an hour to pick up an order to come to find out they ordered the wrong pair of shoes. They should have checked they before calling to have them picked up. Especially with gas prices right now. Unfortunately shoes were not for me they were for for my mom-n-law so I couldn't even get her money back sense I didn't have her credit card. Someone wasn't doing their job correctly. I will never go back their again!

Came here for some quality shoes that I've used been using working 12 hour days. My shoe fitting expert, Annelie helped with sizing, fitting and selection. The shoes are made in the US and you can expect good quality. Shoe sizes come in different widths to accommodate your type of feet as well as different lengths. Excellent customer service along with shoe selection. Covid precautions still in effect as well.
