Lost + Found
Neighborhood: Olde City

133 N. 3rd Street
Philadelphia, PA 19106

Rachel L. writes: Lost and Found is nice to my wallet, and good for my soul. It is a little disheartening to go to store after store that has great stuff at insane prices. Lost and found has nice stuff and decent (not bargain by any means, but more in my allowable…

Smak Parlour
Neighborhood: Olde City

219 Market Street
Philadelphia, PA 19106

stephy s. writes: Remember when you were a little girl and you'd fantasize about what your perfect room would look like. You'd squint your eyes and squeeze your dollies and imagine a pink and frilly little girl wonderland that would make you feel like the prettiest…

Boyds Philadelphia
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

1818 Chestnut St
Philadelphia, PA 19103

eric f. writes: Whether you come in for a tie on sale or a $50,000 Patek Philippe watch, you'll be treated like royalty. The quality of service is so outstanding, it's worth taking out a 2nd mortgage on your home just to pay for a pair of socks.

Guacamole
Neighborhood: Society Hill, South Street District

422 South Street
Philadelphia, PA 19147

Carrie E. writes: If Hot Topic had an older, more fashionable sister, her name would be Guacamole.

Lots of cute tees, dresses and accessories that reflect the style de jour. Everything runs teeny tiny, though, so if you're a curvy girl who enjoys her food & drink (like…

1509 Walnut Street
Philadelphia, PA 19102

tim c. writes: I like sneakers.

Three floors. Current layout as follows.

WTHN
Neighborhood: Olde City

17 N 3rd Street
Philadelphia, PA 19106

Jackie A. writes: I liked this place... Liked their clothes selection more than their shoes--- didn't have the size I wanted. But the dude working was alright. Their clothing selection is really good though. I got this nice Married to the Mob shirt that I've never…

Matthew Izzo Shop
Neighborhood: Market East

1109 Walnut Street
Philadelphia, PA 19107

Sam P. writes: According to my recent Philadelphia transplant friend (who happens to have one of the more acute senses of style of anyone I know), this is one of the only acceptable places to shop in Philly. But conveniently enough, it sells everything you could…

Philadelphia Runner
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

1601 Sansom St.
Philadelphia, PA 19103

Alexandra T. writes: The staff is very knowledgable and helpful.
They have a huge selection and do not push the sale at all.
The owner is a great guy but spends more time at the main line store.

Payless Shoesource

25 Snyder Ave
Philadelphia, PA 19148

Caitlin C. writes: It doesn't matter what income bracket you fall under, if you're not a snob and you're smart financially, you know the best finds are at Marshalls, Payless and Target.

Payless is pretty incredible for their prices. And guys especially (because they are…

Jay West

151 Kings Hwy E
Haddonfield, NJ 08033

eliza b. writes: I bought my wedding gown here, and I shopped here extensively for bridesmaids, flower girl, and accessories. Their service is amazing and they are super helpful. I got my alterations done by one of their reccomended seamstresses, and I bought my veil…

Bare Feet Shoes

1000 Easton Rd
Wyncote, PA 19095

Kimberly P. writes: I love this place. Though I am not a fan of the clothing selection (too tacky and ghetto), I love the huge selection of inexpensive foot wear. A majority of my shoes have come from Barefeet. They have a plethora of cute shoes and most of them are so…

Joseph's Shoes
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

32 S 18th St
Philadelphia, PA 19103

George A. writes: There are two things worthy of reviewing at Josephs: the shoe store aspects and the shoe-shine aspects.

The store features men's shoes of the sort worn by professional men. There are a few boots, but the focus is on dress shoes. The brands carried…

Stiletto
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

124 S 18th St
Philadelphia, PA 19103

Carrie E. writes: Sexy sexy sexy shoes are to be found at this boutique - but just be prepared to pay. Lemme tell you, though, ladies: they are worth every penny. All the designer names are there (and a few I've never heard of) but when I want to feel tall, skinny and…

Hollywood Shoes

1615 Cecil B Moore Ave
Philadelphia, PA 19121

Kimberly P. writes: This place is great. Their selection of shoes is awesome, especially considering how small the place is. Everything is neatly organized and does not give any hint of clutter. The salesman was very nice and helped me find the type of shoes that I was…

Bare Feet Shoes
Neighborhood: Society Hill, South Street District

609 S 4th St
Philadelphia, PA 19147

elyse w. writes: I only visit South Street for two reasons, and buying shoes is one of them. I had always shopped for shoes at Guacamole, which is neighbors with Bare Feet. After taking a walk across the street to this fluorescent chain, I recognized all the shoes…

Walk the Talk
Neighborhood: Manayunk, Roxborough

4333 Main St
Philadelphia, PA 19127

Kimberly P. writes: I found the cutest pair of shoes in Walk the Talk and they were only twenty dollars! This place is one of the few stores that actually puts cute and wearable shoes on sale/clearance. Score for me! Their selection of shoes were amazing and pretty…

Bus Stop
Neighborhood: Queen Village

750 S 4th St
Philadelphia, PA 19147

Susan G. writes: This little shop, hidden behind a ladder and other large objects needed to renovate the facade of a building is quite the little gem. With a beautiful, yet not overwhelming selection of shoes from international locations.
The boutique is set up in…

Steve and Barry's
Neighborhood: Byberry

1100 Franklin Mills Cir
Philadelphia, PA 19154

Kimberly P. writes: I really think that Steve and Barry's is my new favorite store. I went in when I heard that Sarah Jessica Parker was coming out with a new clothing line, Bitten, that would be exclusively sold at Steve and Barry's.

Fortunately, the only one in…

South Street Antiques Market
Neighborhood: South Street District

615 S 6th St
Philadelphia, PA 19147

josh f. writes: Great folks run this great place. Vintage games, pics of Betty Page, toys, furniture, and jewelery. This is where I picked up the engagement ring. Thank you Barbara. This store will always have a special place in my heart.

Moda Shoe & Pants Co
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

1523 Chestnut St
Philadelphia, PA 19102

Coco C. writes: Dr. Jay's meets inner city boutique. Moda is a great place to shop for Urban apparel.
I went in looking for gold open toe pumps - and the sales girl was more than happy to help me pick the perfect pair. Even after I had decided on a pair - she…

The Natural Shoe Store Inc.
Neighborhood: University City

220 South 40th St
Philadelphia, PA 19104

Kimberly H. writes: I seriously love this place. Due to my insane allegiance to a certain brand of German boiled wool clogs, I scoured the city last fall looking for them and no one had them. Even Zappo's and other on-line shoe sellers either didn't have them or…

Benjamin Lovell Shoes
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

119 S 18th St
Philadelphia, PA 19103

Rachel L. writes: i give this second BLS store four stars only because i have been to the south street location as well, so i know what their selection is really like. but it is nice having a BLS closer to home, because I like their shoe selection. It isnt INSANE or…

Payless Shoesource
Neighborhood: Market East

1227 Chestnut St
Philadelphia, PA 19107

Jacquelin K. writes: This store is 4 blocks from the Payless on 16th & 2 blocks from both Paylesses in the Gallery, so Payless is kind of like Starbucks. Ok, not really.

This store is better than the other 3 because it's bigger. Shoppers need space.

Women's shoes are…

Samsun Footwear

18 S 52nd St
Philadelphia, PA 19139

Jake P. writes: Samsun has a slept-on selection of sneaks. They do a lousy job sometimes indicating which shoes are for which gender (maybe that says something about me), but the selection and the prices are good.

I still think Philly Sports has the best deals, Ubiq…

Reebok
Neighborhood: Society Hill

414 South St
Philadelphia, PA 19147

Russ C. writes: Recently I have kind of become "girly" when it comes to shoes. I want cool, unique shoes and sneakers, and the Reebok store on South St. has a large collection that fit both criteria. In addition, last time I was there they had a huge sale, with 40%…

Dudes Boutique
Neighborhood: Society Hill

646 South St
Philadelphia, PA 19147

Nicole R. writes: Midnight Cowboy would have loved this place, although he thought he was unique, what with being a cowboy in the city. Apparently it's not all that special. Walking in to Dudes, one is overwhelmed by the smell of rawhide (well, it's probably tanned…

Sugarcube
Neighborhood: Olde City

124 N 3rd St
Philadelphia, PA 19106

Sam P. writes: For all my New Yorkers out there, this is the sort of boutique you'd expect to find on Smith Street in Brooklyn. Heavy on the wood, heavy on the trendy-vintage-kitschy, heavy on the wallet. My aforementioned fashionable friend considers this to be…

Bare Feet Shoes
Neighborhood: Market East

1217 Chestnut St
Philadelphia, PA 19107

Sonia S. writes: Here's the scenario: I flew to Philly but forgot to pack my non-running shoes.. it was cold and rainy and I had an hour to find a few pairs of fun shoes for daytime and night. Problem is, I have weird feet, and don't like to buy shoes unless they…

Unica Footware
Neighborhood: Society Hill, South Street District

317 South St
Philadelphia, PA 19147

Susan G. writes: First off...yeah I know it's just another shop on South Street. For the most part they all sell the same things....etc etc. Well the shoe store....actually sells real brands! There were some really cute Steve Madden pumps in here....oh so cute.…

South Moon Under
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

1731 Chestnut St
Philadelphia, PA 19103

Marisa D. writes: They have a large and varied selection of stylish items. However, I'm knocking them down 1 star for their overly-eager staff. Sure, I like to be greeted and it's nice to see a smile when you walk in - but to obviously follow me around while I shop? I…

Sneaker Junction
Neighborhood: Olde City

18 S 3rd St
Philadelphia, PA 19106

Payless Shoesource
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

1604 Chestnut St
Philadelphia, PA 19103

The Puma Store
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

1505 Walnut St
Philadelphia, PA 19102

Michelle C. writes: I was looking for a birthday gift for my brother so wandered into this store the other day. Right away I found something he would like, which was awesome. The store had a lot of great stuff but the prices were a bit ridic for things like basic…

Adidas Inline Heritage Store
Neighborhood: Society Hill, South Street District

436 South St
Philadelphia, PA 19147

Jake P. writes: Recently, I was washing my hands in the Mens Room at Webster Hall in New York, and I said to myself, "This looks a lot like the Adidas store."

Yes, save for urinals filled with ice and glow sticks, Adidas has really outdone themselves with this…

Ben's Shoes, Inc
Neighborhood: Olde City

231 Market St
Philadelphia, PA 19106

Kimberly P. writes: Don't let the domain name fool you, the shoes in Ben's are not cheap. They may be discounted like... $2 dollars but.... Yes, they had some cute shoes but not many. They did have a good selection of cowboy boots (I hate cowboy boots). Plus, the…

Polo Ralph Lauren
Neighborhood: Penn Center, Market East, Avenue of the Arts South

200 S Broad St
Philadelphia, PA 19102

Jake P. writes: We all know that scene in Pretty Woman where Julia Roberts has her moment of Rodeo Drive boutique judgement. Never in my life have I come close to that... except here.

After years of checking the sale room (and occassionally buying something at full…

Blondie's Boutique
Neighborhood: Society Hill, South Street District

520 South St
Philadelphia, PA 19147

Susan G. writes: Alright so the other two people who have reviewed this place have discussed the crap that they sell here.
But what they didn't tell you is that they had a sale, or may even still have a sale going on....where you can buy two pair of shoes for…

Foot Locker
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

1625 Chestnut St Ste 224
Philadelphia, PA 19103

Jake V. writes: Back home, I'd never set foot into a foot locker nor a foot locker shoe. But I have recently moved and since I blew out my boots and have been walking around in dress shoes, desperate times call for desperate measures and by desperate measures, I…
