Shoe Stores in Fort Wayne, IN

28 locations found near Fort Wayne

“Conveniently located near the mall entrance, this small store, run by a fascinating couple, is by far the best shoe store I have ever shopped. My family discovered this wonderful place just a few years ago, and we have never once regretted our decision to buy shoes from here. The first time we walked in, they sat us down, took measurements of our feet, asked about our history and any pain we had been experiencing, and then guided us through trying on shoes. It was an experience I will never forget. I tried on several different pairs of shoes before finding the ones I liked the best, and then they had me try out a special type of insole meant to help relieve the pain in my feet and help repair that damage I had done to them. The whole process took about an hour, but the employees were incredibly patient, kind, and willing to help. Since that time, I have only bought tennis shoes from them, and recently my first pair of dress shoes. The customer service here is the best I have ever experienced, and my feet feel better than they have in years.”

“Knowledgeable, and very helpful.
I have very hard feet to fit into shoes since one foot is size nine and a half and the other is six and a half. The representative was very helpful and found the right pair of shoes on the very first try.”

“I live in between Indianapolis and Fort Wayne and visit both DXL stores regularly. While the Indy store is bigger, I enjoy the Fort Wayne store visits more because of the great customer service. Tiffany is amazing at her job and brings a level of genuine care that is sorely missing in retail these days. Once she understands what I’m looking for she always delivers time and time again with constructive ideas and honest fashion sense.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (for John – unfortunately not the whole experience)

I want to give a big thank you to John in the service department. He was extremely quick, professional, and genuinely helpful. From the moment he stepped in, he made sure everything was handled efficiently and treated the situation like it actually mattered. It’s rare to run into someone who clearly cares about doing their job well and helping customers, and John absolutely did that.

Unfortunately, the experience before John stepped in was the complete opposite. Mark seemed completely uninterested in helping customers. He ignored the situation and didn’t notice or respond to people needing assistance. It was frustrating standing there while someone who is supposed to be helping customers acted like we weren’t even there.

If it wasn’t for John stepping up and actually doing his job well, this would have been a very negative experience overall. He saved the situation and deserves recognition for the way he handles customers.”

“I absolutely had a FANTASTIC experience at J.Jill. My mom and I went in a few weeks back, and the staff were absolutely wonderful, helping me select items and making suggestions, but not doing too much to make me feel pressured. It has been over a month, and I still get compliments on the clothing!!! Love that they have talls too!!!”

“The team here is very friendly and knowledgeable. They answered all of my questions and helped me choose the shoe best suited for my training goals. I’m currently training for a half and full marathon later this year and am in love with my new Brooks Hyperion Max 2’s.

“Little bit of a mix up. I needed the display shoes since it was the size I needed. They couldn't find the shoe. She took my name and number but never called me. She took the number down wrong. I called and they found the shoe right after I left. I went back and got the shoes. Shoes are cool though. Worker was friendly.”

“Great value for money, but the staffing could really be improved, especially on busy days. The cashier, David, took about 10-12 minutes just to make change for a customer, and the other employee took around 15 minutes to locate a shoe size. While the products are great, the service could definitely be faster with more efficient staffing during peak times”

“First and foremost, Willie was beyond patient, understanding, and accommodating!!! I have never experienced such a detailed and thorough customer service! I would strongly recommend your shoes here and request Willie ? This was the first experience with Fred Toenges and the absolute best shoe experience hands down! Willie genuinely considered every need of concern that there was. He deserves a raise/promotion for all of the efforts and attention to detail he put forth.”

“The customer service in this store is incredible, Landon is very knowledgeable on shoes and overall life experience, I did not even know I needed sketchers but he made me realize they were what my life was missing. I love this store and all the employees but it could use some dudes with long hair.”
