I am NOT the type to get excited about shoe shopping. However, this was not a bad experience in my opinion. I have not bought shoes in a number of years and went looking for a pair of sneakers that would hold up for another number of years. To be honest, I am not thrilled with the way shoes even look now days with all the wild colors and all, but Shoe Carnival had a few pair I really liked. The salesman, Elijah, was extremely helpful. I would ask questions and he had answers. I asked about color, style, support, and prices of a many pair of shoes. He was very kind and went to get each pair of shoes for me. He treated me like the most important customer he has ever had, even though there were quite a few other customers there. He listened diligently and made a few recommendations based on what I told him I was looking for. I walked out with a great pair of shoes just right for what I needed them for… and they are a great color! Anyways, if you ever need a good pair of shoes stop by and see Elijah there at Shoe Carnival. They are great people there.
