The Blue Shoe Box

Walked into the Blue Shoe Box just to browse. Was looking for some red shoes to go with a red belt. There were some items that looked promising but when I saw the prices I was a bit turned off. The prices were quite high! Going from $ 100 to more than that. Mind you this isn’t a shoe I was planning on using too often so the price didn’t justify the amount of times I might wear it.
As for the store layout, it’s a narrow store. Kinda small. But they manage to pack in a lot of shoes! The person minding the store was so-​so. He let me browse without harassing me. When I left I was polite & said thank you. But he didn’t look happy I was leaving empty handed. Them’s the breaks. Sometimes you find something you like in a store & sometimes you don’t. All store owners should realize that.

i would come here only for the shoes and never for the service.
there were a wide selection of european shoes that nicely seemed to fall within the category of shoes that could both be comfortable, good for your feet and cool looking. they also seemed like they were well made and damn well better have been because they were expensive. at the same time they were on sale, so there was something in the customers favour when i went.
what wasnt in the customers favour was the guy who was working there, who didnt seem like the owner but frankly a lazy worker who didnt bother to learn all that much about the brands of shoes he was selling. ive worked in retail for many years and i know the value of learning your product.
when people spend their cash they should be entitled to someone being able to break down the specifics of the shoe for them. that scenario becomes even more valid as the price increases.
id sooner do my own research and if their prices seem to be better than other folks, come back but only for that.
