Johnston & Murphy

I want to like this store; I really do. The staff are friendly but they never have what I’m looking for. A black cap toe in an 11? Nope, out of stock. A brown slip-​on driver in a 10.5? Nope, out of stock. How about a pair of the no-​show socks in black? Nope, out of stock. I guess I’ll have to try my luck at one of their other locations, or roll the dice online.

I love these shoes they all look great and fit well. They also sent out last most other shoes. This is a great store with a great staff.

I have abnormally large, wide feet.
It is a constant struggle for me to find a nice shoe, and it is even harder to smoosh my giant foot into it. Dan and his associate at Johnston & Murphy were very patient, to the point of listening to me complain about my wide feet and other things like how they only have belts as small as 34 inches, when I need a 28.
Despite their ill-​fitting belts, I was not disappointed when it came to the shoes. The Italian made shoes are all very nice, with conservative styles and some more modern makes as well.
I was able to find a zapato that fit after trying on six different versions of the same shoe. The sales associate was very patient, much more so than I would have been if I was in his shoes. I know it’s a pain to go back in the stockroom a bunch of times for a picky customer, but he did it with a friendly attitude and upbeat smile.
