“I went in looking for Hokas after hearing great things about them and they fitted me for New Balance 1080 Fresh Foamx. I LOVE THESE SHOES! I walk 2+ miles a day in them and I’m going back to get another pair. Striders is great!”
“Our experience was great. Very nice customer service. Just wish the process of switching dresses to try on was more smooth, overall great experience, lovely dresses!”
“I returned some dress shirts that I ordered online which turned out to be to large for my son. The return was a quick and easy process. The store and offerings are very nice. If I'd known it was less than an hour from home, I would have shopped in person and saved a lot of time and trouble”
“Sofia was so kind & patient with me while I asked a lot of questions to find the perfect fitting sandals! Customer service & friendliness was amazing! I have shopped here for years & you have a customer for life!! I would highly recommend Mieras Family Shoes!”
“Absolutely fabulous store, clean, organized and very classy. You'll feel like you're in Aspen without all the stuffiness. Their staff are very knowledgeable and willing to help find the right items to fit your budget and your style. A stop at Fitz's is always on my radar when visiting Brenton Village.”
“I absolutely love coming to Gazelle sports for any of my running gear needs and then some. The staff is incredibly helpful and full of suggestions but they never pressure you to spend top dollar which is my favorite part of the whole thing. The selection that is always in stock at the location is amazing. I’ve even started sending my friends who are getting into running as well to Gazelle.”
“The staff and store were great, this trip was my first time in a skate shop in 10+ years. They have a great selection and an awesome staff. Remember to support your local skate shop.”
“this is a great store that sells lots of great shoes and a big discount section. I usually shop the discount section because for me some of the prices on still not on clearance can be expensive”
“This is THE BEST children’s store! Allison and her staff make it very easy to help you find just what you are looking for. She has the best lines of clothing and shoes for all kids/babies.”

“Jerry at the 44th st. location spent well over an hour helping me find the perfect work boot. His encyclopedic knowledge of technical specs on each boot was impressive. Went through 5 different pairs of boots before we found the perfect one. I warned him I was picky and he was patient with the entire time. Excellent service!!!”
“Great local shoe store is a GR staple. Nike selection is fantastic and service is impeccable. Many sale styles of top lines (Dunks, Jordan's, AF1) in sale area. Recent SNKR drops in stock with multiple styles. This is a must stop for sneaker-heads. Only issue parking can be difficult to find on weekends and at busy times.”

“I love skechers shoes and they have a wide variety of shoes. But they didn't have the higher sizes at that time. It's too bad they don't have the option of ordering the style and size needed.”
“Feilany helped me find the perfect shoes I needed on short notice and even convinced me to add some polish for my shoes. It all came out to be less than I was expecting because of a deal they had which she informed me of. I was very appreciative of her help in my search on my visit. I really like my shoes, and my shoe polish was a much needed add on.”
“I had an amazing shopping experience at the Vans store today. I bought some checkered board slip ons. They are super comfortable. The service provided by Kate was excellent. Kate was very knowledgeable about the brand and was very informative. The other associate was super nice as well. Kate, her associate and I had a nice conversation and they were happy to listen to me and were very kind. Very happy after I left the store. 10 out of 10 experience!”
“Prices here are all over the map, so check the tag of whatever you just found before you decide if you love it, but there are some really great deals tucked here and there. They are also the ONLY store in the city to carry women's size 4 and 4.5 shoes, and I'm very grateful that they do!”
“Fantastic experience! My husband was able to get work boots, personalized foot analysis for fitted insoles. He needs bigger sizes and they had it all in stock with options. The customer service is amazing! I think her name is Polly. She took her time with us even though it was close to closing time. We will definitely be a returning!”

“Super cute clothes! They also have a wide variety of jewelry, gifts and other accessories. This would be a great place to shop locally for a gift too! Overall, this lovely shop is amazing and it's my new favorite! I got a couple bracelets for friends and they loved them, I love mine too, and my dress and blouses!”
“My new go-to clothing store, as they are one of the few designers that fit me perfectly and comfortably. This location is amazing, as it’s always organized, clean, stocked and staffed with great people. I check in every few weeks to see the latest styles and sales, as the app is a great companion.”
“Visited on a Thursday evening. The parking lot is tricky to navigate because cars are flowing in toward Culvers. The store was a little busy with other families, including one with many kids running around. We bought three pairs of shoes, including a kids sandal (pictured below) with a $10 yellow sticker. When I got home, I realized they charged me $18 so I brought in my receipt and shoe box on Friday and they put $8+ back on my card.
Overall, decent experience and will return when my kiddos feet grow to size 11.”
“We discovered that if you own a NorthFace product that deteriorated you can return it for an exchange. Last week we took a jacket back but discovered that in order to return it, we had to go onto our computer and fill out all the paperwork. Because we are not 100% computer savvy, we asked the clerk, Nicholas, if he would do it for us — and he did! That is what we call excellent customer service. Thank you, Nicholas.!”
“My wife and I were heading to a wedding when I realized I HAD NO SHOES TO MATCH MY SUIT. I would have showed up looking like a fool. On the way to the wedding we found this store on google. Walked in and was immediately greeted. That right there is a good sign. One of the employees named Doug helped us out. This man was honest, kind, and extremely helpful. He knew immediately which shoe would complete my outfit. He even got me a pair of socks to go with them. Doug provided great service and helped put my shoe on and take it off every time. It was a great experience and I was happy I stopped by.”
“Jeremiah was incredibly helpful! I am recovering from a foot surgery and he knew the perfect shoe to recommend for me. He helped me try on multiple pairs and was just awesome about it!”
“These guys were amazing! Had an amazing selection And had a great interaction with guys running the store. 10/10 recommend don’t sleep on Hëmd they have great prices! And amazing employees!”
“First of all love everything in this store from clothing, shoes, jewelry, accessories, beach towels! ugh, i could spend all my money there. The lady I met working there today was so nice and so helpful! Very welcoming. I’m obsessed with my new earrings and beach towel. Love that they have a rewards program, can’t wait to come back!”
“I had been a regular customer of WHBM for many years. I moved to Northern Michigan and retired, so no longer needed dressy/professional clothing. My mom passed away last week in GR and I needed a dress for her funeral. I first went to Macy’s and found that there were limited dressing rooms available and very long lines. I didn’t have time to wait. It dawned on me that WHBM is now in Woodland Mall. I walked into the store and Susan, the store manager, remembered me. She totally “styled” me. I cannot tell you how much that experience meant to me. Department stores cannot provide personal, knowledgeable attention from someone who knows their collection and what will work for you as an individual. I am firmly back in the WHBM fold whenever I am in GR. The clothing is beautiful and if you need a special piece, this is the place to go. Again, thank you Susan! You made my day!”
“FANTASTIC customer service every time I shop here. Jane and the other staff members have consistently been helpful with ideas and recommendations. Thank you, ladies!”
“I could go on and on. Every time I've come here it has been a good experience with every staff member that has helped me. They are kind and knowledgeable. I always go at night too and the service is still great. Needed to exchange some shoes that didn't fit my daughter, they didn't have the right size but they ordered them for me - right to my house. Only took a couple days too.”
“Was walking out of the mall and the leather shoes caught my husband's eye, stopped in and it was nice. My husband bought some? really nice shoe and decent price.”
“Walked in around 5 p.m. The man and woman were very kind, friendly and welcoming. They both took the time to help find a proper pair of shoes, being that I will be on my feet for 12-16 hours shifts. They both seemed to genuinely care about making sure I had the right fit, even though I wasn't able to get adult shoes, they found the perfect pair of kids shoes that are quite comfortable, and cute! My heel does not pop out of the back of the shoe, nor does it rub which would only cause blisters. My toes are not smashed against the front either. Perfect amount of space, perfect fit. I've just moved to the area, and have had a heck of a time finding scrubs. I say this because they were even kind enough to help me find a different location to get scrubs, because every place I had been today either didn't have any, or not the correct size. Super friendly, kind, caring and compassionate folks. I'll definitely be back. Thanks again you two!!! I'm just sorry I didn't get their names.”
