We were able to find a pair of shoes for my daughter! This is no easy task. She needs a wide toe box, but narrow heal. We've tried on every major and minor brand in all of the shoe stores in town. Lexa was so very helpful and sweet. We will be a forever customer.

The Roanoke store is the third Walkabout location my husband and I have visited. Just like our previous experiences (in Harrisonburg and Lexington), we left as happy customers with some new gear! The staff were knowledgeable and welcoming.
