Threads – Footloose & Fancy

Nice shoe selection. Parking downtown is sometimes a pain to go here. Shoes tend to be on the expensive side, but then, this isn’t Payless shoes, so you should expect to pay more.

Love this place. It has that wonderful boutique feel to it.
I always buy their Groupons whenever they’re up. My husband is a BIG Northface fan and he gets his fix of t-​shirts, hoodies, and duffle bags from here.
I also came here with my mom who has very wide feet and is a huge birkenstock fan but wanted something more formal. Staff was great at helping her and she walked away with a new pair of shoes. We’ll definitely be back when she’s ready for another pair.

This store is tucked away in a slightly difficult location to find, but well worth the hunt. I sought them out because they are one of the few area vendor that sell Vibram Fivefingers and several other relatively uncommon brands. Though it was my first visit to either of their two locations, I was immediately greeted and assisted. Both staff members I dealt with were very personable and will to help answer my questions and make sure I found what I needed. The easy banter and laid-​back atmosphere more than made up for the somewhat inflated prices. This is a good locally-​owned establishment that I would recommend checking out.

This place employs some really, really, really patient people :)
I’m a die hard dansko and earth shoe person so when I wanted to switch things up and try something new, I went to Footloose because I heard that they have a great selection of similarly constructed shoes that would suite my occupation. I’m a chef and I’m on my feet all day long, so my shoes have to be amazingly comfortable and if they are a little cute, then that’s an added bonus.
I must have tried on 20 pair of shoes. They have a really good selection and a very patient staff. Not once did I feel like my endless request for «this shoe» or «that shoe» was in any way an inconvenience to the clerk. She happily got each shoe I asked for and brought out other shoes that hadn’t yet made it to the shoeroom floor.
I went in for one pair of shoes and left with three. Because of the friendly staff, quality shoes and great selection, I’ll be back again. They are locally owned too, which is another added bonus.
Post Script: They also have a second location at 70^th and Pioneer Blvd.
