Route 96 Power & Paddle

I recently stopped in at The Shoe Outlet at Power & Paddle to buy some new shoes for work. They had a great selection of all the notable brands. The staff was quick to check in with me, offering help or to answer questions. After browsing for a while on my own I asked the nearest employee for advice he was quick to offer several suggestions based purely on my job and shoe preference. He was clearly very knowledgable about all of the shoes as well as which model would best fit my work environment. Through the whole process of trying on numerous paris he further proved his extensive knowledge. He was very polite, patient, not pushy, and just wanted to make sure I got the right shoe for me. In the end I found the perfect pair of shoes for work, and ended up buying a second pair of casual shoes.
Overall I had a great experience, the staff was super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I was fully satisfied with my buying experience, and will return should I find myself with similar needs. I would definitely recommend this store to anyone looking to buy quality shoes especially if you are unsure about what exactly would be best for you, as they will definitely we able to guide you in the right direction.

Chainsaws, kayaks and a fab assortment of great shoes! What more could a girl want? Especially the chainsaws!
Really, for me, it’s all about the great assortment of hiking shoes. I bought a great pair of «dressy» Merrells here a few years ago and I’ve returned for a great pair of summer hikers. They have a GREAT assortment of comfort shoes, hikers, DarnTough socks, Teva flip flops in every color and shape, rain/​muck boots and men’s work boots.
They do have a sale room, but sizes are super hard to come by — at least for me. The shoes aren’t cheap, but they are no more expensive than anywhere else. (I have checked extensively!) Most of all, you can’t beat the great service!
