I’m so disappointed in the experience I just had at Sikes. I have 4 grandchildren and loved having the option (with shoes especially) of trying on and being fitted. This trip was different. I was buying for my out of town granddaughter. Her mom used the printable size guide on the website so we would have some info to give the associate. Sizing shoes can be tricky, so Heather (who was wonderful) asked her manager to confirm what we were thinking. Makia (no idea if I’m spelling that correctly, but she is the mgr) was incredibly rude. It was such a simple question, but she rolled her eyes and said, “oh. Well. “ and walked away. I will just order online from now on.

I got my 1st baby her first pair of shoes at Sikes. We loved the experience and help we got from Alan. We will be back for our next pair!

Sikes is the absolute best. I went there for the first time today to find shoes for my almost 2 year old. They are so friendly and will spend plenty of time with you to make sure your child is getting the right size. I ended up buying two pairs of shoes on sale, and when I got home, the manager of the store called to let me know they had accidentally overcharged me for the shoes, and made sure to remedy the situation during our phone call. If she hadn’t called, I would have never known there had been a mistake, and I am so appreciative of her honesty and willingness to do the right thing. I will definitely be returning and making sure all my friends know where to get shoes for their kids!

Drove over 200miles to shop here, and it was worth it. Great kids shoe selection. Excellent customer service. Really enjoy shopping this store. Mikya is the sweetest!

I have been shopping at Sikes for close to 40 years, and they do have the best selection. I was disappointed today because the sales person was not very friendly and sort of had an attitude when we were trying to buy shoes for our two grandchildren. The employees need to have a refresher course on serving their customers, i. e. smile and be eager to help your customers find shoes and clothes in their sizes. Southern hospitality goes a long way for any business no matter how long you have been in Homewood.

We had the BEST experience with Mikya! Very detail oriented and extremely knowledgable. They do measurements here which we now realize is so important in getting the right size! Mikya was so kind to our daughter who would not wear them before this experience (she even played "pat-a-cake" with her). She found her the cutest, most comfy Stride Rite shoes. She told us to stay as long as we needed for my daughter to acclimate to wearing the new shoes and even took our picture! Clean store with tons of options and amazing customer service. We will definitely be back!

A staple to the community for reliable shoes. This is where we have gone for over 20 years for the entire family (2 generations, 16 kids) for kids walking shoes/ hard/ soft bottoms.

I am new to the area and missed having a kids specialty shoe store to shop for my two toddlers. Was told about Sykes and decided to stop in. There were three employees present…young white girl, black female, and older white lady. The young girl was PHENOMENAL, super sweet and patient with my kids, and truly made me feel welcomed as well as the black female who was working that day. However, the older lady had yet to do anything shy of look at me as though I didn’t belong my entire time there. True enough my son was bit unruly. Thanks to the young girl being so patient and kind we left with four pairs of shoes and a bracelet. To the older lady, even though I wasn’t one of your regular clients like the other person you were working with, don’t deter me from becoming one! Thank you to the other two ladies working that day, because of you I will be back!

One of my positions with Classic Sewing magazine is photo styling for all our photo shoots. Many times we've needed shoes to match the outfits produced by our designers for a particular issue and owner, Laura Player and one of her employee's Cindy, have always been so accommodating; whatever we've needed, they've graciously provided. They have an amazing selection of clothing, shoes and accessories - you can shop in house or online - whatever is convenient for you. If you've got children, you need Sikes Children's Shoes! They're the best.

Our daughter has a high arch and a wide foot, and for children's shoes, there just isn't many options at typical stores. So we started looking for stores around town that we could go to so we could find some options for her. We found some recommendations for Sike's and we decided to give it a try.They were BUSY! We waited probably 45 minutes. Some of the people said that was very abnormal, but I guess we'll see next time we're there. The staff were very professional and were able to size our daughter's feet and offer up options pretty quickly. We were very happy with the service and the huge selection of shoes they offered. We'll definitely be back to get her more shoes as she outgrows the ones we recently got!

Grateful for a shoe store with a wide selection and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Worth the drive from Madison/HSV for the level of quality and service.

I will never buy shoes for my children anywhere by Sikes. They have the best customer service and business ethics. Three of my boys shoes did not hold up to Sikes’ 90 day moneyback guarantee, and Sikes exchanged all three pairs of shoes for new shoes.Businesses are not this obliging anymore. Sikes truly cares about their customers.I am thankful to have Sikes in our Homewood community.
