This DSW is still not my ideal discount shoe store, nor my favorite DSW ever, but I think it is the best one around Atlanta.  They have a ton of shoes in current styles (I did see many shoes here which I had also just seen at Lenox Square), and a good sized clearance section.  

My main complaint about this store is that they don't have as many higher-end selections as I have seen at DSW stores in other cities, and they don't have as many Italian-made or Brazilian-made shoes, either.  I am a bit of a shoe quality snob and I am willing to pay extra for shoes made in Italy or Brazil (also France and Spain, but those are even rarer).  This is simply based on experience with shoes made in these places holding up better than others and also providing more comfort.  There just isn't a lot for me to choose from here.  But, I did find two pairs made in Brazil that were both on clearance on my last visit so I left satisfied.  In general, not considering where the shoes are made, they do have a very wide selection of attractive and fashionable shoes.

This store is also nice because they have a lot of cash registers open on busy days and you get through the line quickly.  I do love the DSW rewards program, too.  The worst thing about this store is the parking, and it's totally not their fault.  The lot and deck here are just a little crazy because there are so many big stores with customers competing for parking spaces.  I think that problem goes away, though, if you can avoid coming here on weekends.

I first encountered DSW in Farmington Hills, Michigan, and was a regular at DSW in Austin, Tx, before moving back to Atlanta.

The DSW in Buckhead, from a guy's point of view, is very disappointing. The number of shoes other than sneakers for men is very thin, and what they do have is uninspiring. I've bought a couple of pairs there, but it is unclear to me what demographic they are serving.

The service also varies, which is to be expected from a minimum-wage level business, but it has never been bad.

I'll give it another try or two, but if the BBB were not adjacent to it, I'd likely not return because of the poor selection.

These boots are made for walkin'!  I LOVE DSW!  If you have not signed up for their rewards program..you are missing out!  I am a platinum member and it pays!  I got a coupon in the mail for a couple of really cute bags for FREE to shop on certain days and the rebates are always a plus!  I have the most amazing red suede boots from last season from Michael Kors that my sister regrets not getting pair..low and behold DSW brings them BACK!  They are having an AWESOME boot sale right now...Must see..and MUST TRY ON!!!

All the inventory is not the same so I usually hit them all up in passing to ensure that I get some GREAT deals!  I have a few cute pairs purchased for under $10!!!!  You will be amazed!

Yes, I do like DSW, but I don't see what's soooooo great about DSW.  I've been a few times now and have walked out with a grand total of 1 pair of shoes.  Call me picky, but I'd rather pay full price for shoes that I *really* like than pay a discounted price for reject shoes that I sorta kinda like.  They're not all necessarily reject shoes; they may just be from last season or whatever, but seriously, they have probably about 300-400 pairs of shoes in the place, and I'm rarely taken with any.  Either that, or I'll like a pair and they won't have it in my bigfoot size 10.  DSW is worth checking out if you really like shoes, but be prepared to be disappointed if you're anything like me.  Picky, that is.

This DSW location trumps allllll other DSW locations in and around Atlanta for its selection. They always have something and I frequently walk out with more than one pair. Good place for dressy high heels or sensible work shoes. They also have a great selection of designer shoes at this location that many other locations do not have.

A great place to get cute shoes on the cheap and designer shoes on the semi-cheap.

DSW is OK for a big box store.  Their prices are OK and they have a big selection.  If you need help, you should go somewhere else.

Hold me back!  Designer discount shoes?  Sign me up!  Oh wait ... I already am ... for their rewards card.  I get rewarded for buying shoes.  Now that's a world in which I can live happily.

Shoes, shoes, shoes. Dazzling, comfortable, extremely uncomfortable yet dazzling....who doesn't love a new pair? DSW has flashy designers names at reasonable prices. After buying a pair of shoes here, it is difficult to shop anywhere else. Okay well maybe that last part isn't true. You will still be able to shop, but you'll want to go to DSW first.
