“Carly was so great and helpful! She took the time to explain different shoe options suitable for my unique foot dynamics, and we found a shoe and insole for the support my feet need. I was unfortunately on a time crunch and Carly did a great job getting me out of the store quickly. Highly recommend this store and I will be a repeat customer.”
“I came in to get an estimate on re-gluing a wedge that had come off the sole. David was very honest that with my shoe it might not hold well but they could do it. When I mentioned I had the glue and might try it myself he patiently walked me through the entire process! Wonderful service you don't always find anymore! Will definitely be recommending them to everyone”
“My husband bought a pair of Lem's and some toe socks in his battle against bunions. He was given some great feedback on the fit and how they should feel, and he left feeling really good about his purchase. Also, shout out to the staff - we were there a half hour before closing on Sunday afternoon, and we didn't feel rushed at all. Thanks for a great experience!”
“Bought the Nike Air Griffey Max 1 - Swingman Sweetest Swing’s on a whim. Had a little issue, took them back the next day and they made everything right with no hesitation. The shoes I bought were there for less than a day. Highly recommend and can’t wait to go back to find another pair.”
“I visited this location for the first time today. The staff was very nice. Prices are a bit high, so I wouldn't buy many things there but I think it's a great one stop shop if you want brand new running gear.”
“My homie goes here a lot because he has HUGE feet and they fix him up proper, dudes got Flintstone feet, I assume they make the shoe around each one like a pit crew of Persians strapping up a war elephant for battle, each stich stitched by the hands of a man ready to give it all for this customers feet, battle ready clogs on the mighty end caps of the big homie. Check them out!!”
“Dave was very helpful & intuitive to my needs. He gave me creative options. He replaced 2 missing boot buckles and fixed a zipper on gym bag all for a great price ready the next day! I will be back! (Cash only)”
“Connor was awesome!! Managed many costumers at once and helped me find great trail shoes after trying on many pairs! The foot measurement and gate tech analysis was super cool and easy. Helped me find the perfect shoe.”
“Great store. It's clean and well set up. The shoe selection is fantastic for those with large feet. The celebrity footprint wall is a cool find. The staff are friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!”
“Dr. McLanahan and Renee are exceptional. After nearly a year of foot pain and multiple doctors who didn’t listen to me and my intimate connection with my body, one appointment with Dr. McLanahan got me in a path to restoration - due in large part to his expertise, and also because he simply listened and followed my body’s cues. Renee is compassionate, patient, and clear. Correct Toes and the shoe options directly there at the clinic was also super helpful.”
“Great service and good selection and good prices (got a student discount because we were buying for my daughter), My daughter got a great set of spikes and training shoes.”
“Folks like Black Wagon is what makes Portland great. Hopefully our mayor can get crime, homelessness and anti-biz policies figured out so this wonderful business can keep going strong.”
“Popped in while visiting family. Daniel answered ALL my questions (and I had a ton). Put me into to two stability options that could be real contenders. Due to a change of plans I wasn't able to go back and benefit from the lack of OR sales tax. Will be back in the spring!”
“I had an amazing experience, the owner and staff are incredibly friendly and supportive of the community. If you’re looking for a variety of quality heels (+ larger sizes) or some new wardrobe pieces, Eye Candy is awesome!”
“I traveled to Portland back in April. Saw this place and it completely peaked my interest. Went inside and heard a dope song playing on aux and got the name of the song off of a worker. Mouthbreather-gapyear. Absolutely loved the song and the vibe the workers brought to the whole place. Will definitely be traveling back soon just to see this store!”
“My girlfriend and I came in for the fit experience and Naccari completely blew us away. He took us both through the foot scanning process and was incredibly insightful, breaking down exactly what our feet needed. He completely changed the game for me by showing me that I've been wearing the wrong shoe size my entire life and that a 4E width was the way to go. He also walked me through the compression socks and insoles, clearly delivering the benefits of everything I tried on. Crucially, he never felt like a shark salesperson—I never felt pressured to close or buy anything on the spot, just genuinely educated. Not only does he really know his stuff, but he’s also incredibly personable and made the whole experience awesome from start to finish. Store leadership needs to give Niccari a massive shoutout—he’s an incredible asset to this team!”
“Bought slip ons here the other day, the woman who helped me initially was very knowledgeable and friendly. The shoes ended up not working for me, so I came in today to exchange them. Everyone who helped me today was so nice and they honored the bogo back to school discount for my new items. Great experience! 10/10”
“Okay, I've finally figured out that the reason I can't find Merrell outlets all over Portland is because there are Columbia outlets everywhere, instead. The deals I got here made me just as happy as the deals I'm used to getting at my favorite Merrell outlet in Folsom. I got two pairs of waterproof nonslip boots for work-- one Columbia and one Sorel-- both for $55. I had almost purchased a similar pair of Columbia boots at DSW for $70 a few days ago, so I ended up being so glad I held out for a better deal. They had so many good deals at this outlet, it was literally overwhelming. They had an entire floor of clearance Columbia and Mountain Hardware jackets. I also noticed a huge selection of PFG gear. I'm not into fishing, but I like their lightweight long sleeve sunblocking shirts. Customer service was friendly, one of the employees was also a seasonal national park worker, so we ended up talking about that a little bit. Overall a great experience and I would definitely shop here again.”
“RoM is such a fun store! They have a great selection of shoes and boots. A nice assortment of jewelry. Lots of cozy outdoor wear. And little surprises throughout the store. I really appreciate they only sell fair-trade goods. Plus, everyone who works there is very friendly.”
“If you’re lucky enough to come by and meet Bruno, I guarantee you’re going to leave a happier person. He took his time and listened and we left with the perfect shoe. And a huge smile. 10/10 experience.”
“Five stars for Nora! She provided some of the best customer service I have ever seen. The store was busy, but she handled multiple customers at once with total ease, genuine dedication, and a huge smile on her face the whole time. Definitely made my day!”
“Awesome Columbia store that you can only enter if you are somewhat related to Columbia or if you hold a National Park resident pass (our case). They give you like 40% discount on everything. It saved me for the hiking trails.”
“Small business located inside a former house. Parking behind the house for 4 vehicles is tight. The door was locked I had to ring the bell for the employee to open the door. The employee was very friendly but I highly recommend calling ahead to have your order pulled.”
“Absolutely love this place! The owner was awesome to work with; more than fair, negotiable pricing on one of my childhood grails. It was fun seeing yall at sneakercon!!”
“Just visited Oxalis for spring update. Owner Stephanie is helpful without being pushy. I found pants I liked and asked her for styling help. She often selects items I pass by, but once I try them on I see how they work. She found a sweater that worked well with the pants, and will go with other items I have. I like opening my closet in the morning and feeling happy about what I”m going to wear. Thank you Oxalis!”
“Cute shop with unique apparel and accessories from around the world. Friendly and welcoming staff who are more than happy to chat with you about their fun products.”
“Great little spot with some great boutique apparel and shoe options not found anywhere in the pdx area. Staff was helpful and I ended up walking out with 2 pairs of moonstar shoes.”
“Abigail provided outstanding service today during my visit. She helped me narrow down my choices and I ended up with an excellent pair of shoes. High end quality shoes here and the service is even better.”
“There was a great event yesterday. I enjoyed consuming the healthy snacks that they offered as I looked over the quality variety a footwear they were offering. The staff was very friendly and accommodating”
