Shoe-A-Holic

I usually purchase my shoes online but decided to buy local. When I walked in I was greeted by 2 people but no one came over to help me. In fact, one of the people made a phone call instead. Finally, a man came from the back to assist me. He was nice & helpful & I found a pair of boots I liked. Meanwhile, a young woman came into the store pushing a stroller with a screaming child. She was obviously a family member & went behind the counter with the child in the stroller. I was trying to pay for my shoes, while the family of 4 was behind the counter with the poor sales guy trying to talk to me. It was impossible to hear him over the screams of the child. The next morning I discovered one of the boots did not fit & went back to the store the next day. The owner took a personal phone call while waiting on me. I finally got the return processed & I was leaving the store the young woman with the child in the stroller came into the store & then time she also had a dog on a leash. I understand the importance of family, but felt the needs of the customer were not important. Parking is difficult to find & the store was very poorly lit. I will not return.

An extremely rude Indian woman completely dominated the time of the only person working in the store. I felt that the woman working in the store could not keep her store personable and business-​like, because she was devoting like 45 minutes to one only person who «got there first.» It was extremely bizarre. This feels like an appointment-​only shop but it’s not. It should be if this is how they’re going to run it.

Great place to find every style of Toms you could want. Usually have 20% off tags on some of them. Others shoes in the back are always on sale too. Good place for all types of shoes: work, workout, casual. Nice staff

I love this shoe store. Every time I visit Eugene, I go here. There selection is varied with plenty of «sensible» shoes and lots of sexy options. I have always been able to take advantage of a sale while there. LOVE this plac

I went in looking for ugg boots. I found them on my own. Nobody greeted me or acknoledged me or asked if I needed help.
This store is overpriced and the parking sucks. I had to park far away and walk.
Don’t think I will ever go back.

One of the few shoe stores I’ve ever been able to walk into and find a perfect business casual shoe in less than ten minutes. This says a lot about the quality and selection of their shoes, for I have both a difficult foot size (high arches, narrow width) and am very selective about shoe appearance (I loathe about 95% of shoes). But there they were, a pair of Børns that looked beautiful and fit perfectly — and the staff kept the store open late for me to try on a few other possibilities. Many cheers for Shoe-​A-​Holic!

The funny thing about shoeaholicism is that it’s the only disease that people can get pissed off at you about.
Take my mom for example. Every time I come home she is saying something to the effect of: «No wonder you can’t save any money, look Steve (my dad), he’s wearing another pair of new shoes!»
Shoe-​a-​Holic is the type of place you should keep a shoe ho away from. Because shoe hos fall off the wagon at shoe stores like Shoe-​a-​holic.
If this place wasn’t so conveniently located near the bus station I wouldn’t find myself wasting time (and money) inside. But since it is? Well, you’ll probably see me with a new pair of Toms sometime soon. White people like me love buying shoes with the idea that poor kids somewhere in Guinea-​Bissau are benefiting from my compulsive materialistic nature.
On a side note: Helloooo?! Dumbest store name ever?!

This shoe store is unassuming from the outside, but the inside reveals a world of shoes nearly comparable to Nordstrom or other big shoe departments. In particular, they have a good selection of Danskos, Toms, and cute hipster running shoes. The customer service is attentive and helpful, and they have a good return policy.

I usually shop at Shoe-​A-​Holic since I like to support local businesses and they have a great selection. I always receive good service, but during my most recent visit, I received EXCELLENT service! The guy who helped me is apparently the buyer and KNOWS his shoes! I actually got my feet measured! I haven’t had that done since I was a kid.
I love this store and tell everyone I know to shop there!

After running all around town with no shoe success I finally found this gem.
Shoe-​a-​holic has a HUGE selection! And all last pair shoes are 50% off.
Customer service was awesome. They were very attentive without being annoying.
This is now my go to place for all shoes– boots, sandals, tennis shoes, running shoes, fancy shoes– everything!
Yep. I love this place.

When I was about sixteen or so, Lazar’s Bazaar was a funky little head shop located in downtown Eugene’s then-​pedestrian mall. Since then, the streets have all been opened back up in an attempt to chase the street kids back into their holes and increase vehicular traffic, because apparently people will buy more stuff if they drive their SUV there than if they have to walk.
In any case, Lazar’s was an all-​purpose emporium for such things as Whip-​Its (nitrous oxide), Rush (amyl nitrate), bongs, fake pot (Wizard Smoke, anyone?), concert posters and t-​shirts, small pipes, big pipes, skateboarding gear, shoes, sex toys, incense, and just about anything else small, trinkety, and related to vice.
Over the years, though, Lazar cleaned up his act a little bit (and ran for mayor a time or two) and now keeps the Whip-​its and Rush (not the horrible Geddy Lee-​led Canadian «progressive» rock band) under the counter. He also branched out. A few blocks away is Shoe-​A-​Holic, which sells absolutely no drug paraphernalia or dildoes.
Shoe-​A-​Holic sells shoes. And currry powder. Lots of shoes, big selection, lots of sales, lots of buy one pair, get another pair free, and so forth. The not-​on-​sale shoes, however are sold at full retail price or more. There are bargains to be found, but you have to be careful. Shoe care products are also sold here. I got some shoe laces.
And curry powder. You can buy four or five different blends. I got the kind for meat.
