This would have to be my favourite shoe shop of all times and I have told all my family, friends…read moreand the mums at school about this place as they offer up to 60% off the recommended retail prices that other stores charge - now that is 'guaranteed outlet savings' as their signs say. They stock the latest fashion shoes by brands like Therapy, Isabella Brown, Simona Ricci and Inniu - I've seen all these brands advertised in the latest girly mags such a Dolly, Shop till you drop and a few others. I have always bought good quality discounted shoes at this outlet and walked out satisfied with my purchase. I am in love with Planet Shoes and they sell them there CHEAP - last week I bought a pair of Planet sandals rrp on box was $109.95 and all I paid was $59.95 - WHAT A BARGAIN :) I also have bought Redback work boots and Julius Marlow dress shoes from there at a genuine outlet price, as well as those brands they also stock Dunlop and Raoul Merton and Wild Rhino. They have a huge range to suit just about everyone. They are located in Sumner Park with loads of parking space and I have always walked out with something. For an outlet store I have always found this store to be well presented with clear and easy to read price tags. If you are after good quality, latest fashion shoes that look great and at discounted prices, then this is where you need to go for your next pair of shoes or 5 :) the only cheap thing about these shoes is the price .

I'll be the first to admit, I came across this place purely by chance. What the hell is a Shoe…read moreRack Outlet store in Sumners Park for? It's all blue collar truckie stuff. It's not in the most glamorous of places but it is more than it appears... just. They stock brands of shoes that you might not have heard of or may not be stocked in many retail shoe shops like planet earth shoes, Simona Ricci, Catwalk... I'd never heard of these brands either... except maybe in other outlet shops. The good thing is that these shoes are quality. They aren't just made up crappy brands... the planet earth shoes are very hardy, last a long time and don't cost you a million dollars! The prices are right here in this little outlet shop, the range is okay too, with many different shoes and shoe types to choose from including boots. Stick to what you know and like and you can't go wrong, definetely try them on before buying even if you know your size. Make sure though that you check the shoe because a friend of mine got all excited and bought a pair of boots only to realise the tags were sewn on backwards, the heel's glue was exposed and several threads were actually cut off or missing... so although you can get some cheap buys here, just make sure everything works, fits and doesn't fall off.

A mother-daughter trip to West End is never complete without a visit to this place - my mum…read moreabsolutely loves it. Don't stop reading! She actually has pretty funky taste in shoes. I've never seen so many Doc Martens anywhere else (my mum does not wear Doc Martens). They have plenty of other big brands like Birkenstock, Florsheim and Sketchers. There's a lot of great stuff here; quality shoes that look stylish and unique but also look like they would be comfortable. There's heaps of stuff for men as well, with the place seeming to be equally popular between the sexes.

Shays Shoes was established in 1901! How crazy is that? My friend's Mum was telling me about how…read morewhen she used to work in West End in the early 70s, she'd go to Shays Shoes after work and gaze longingly at their range of shoes and wait until she'd earned enough money to go and blow some of her paycheck there. I love that Shays Shoes has been around for so long and is still selling many of the brands that they sold back in the 70s. They still sell a big range range of Dr. Martens, Birkenstocks, and Hush Puppies. Maybe one of the reasons that Shays Shoes has been around for so long is that they manage to cater for everyone. Whether you're a youth wanting a pair of floral-patterned docs, a Mum wanting some Birkenstocks, or a Grandma after some comfy Hush Puppies, Shays has always been the place to find a treat for your feet. I bought Docs here a few years back and they were so helpful and lovely and I still enjoy browsing their new stock when I'm in the area. Some things are built to last and Shays Shoes is one of them.

So when my last pair fell victim to the great Puppy Chew of 2013, I headed back to her great range of classic pieces. The lady on shift when I arrived was already exuding grace under fire as she dealt with a demanding customer but still found time to help me. My visits may be infrequent as I often wear shoes til they are "dead" but I'll always return for quality and great customer service here.

I thought it would be a simple matter to resolve since the technical specifications were misleading and wrong, but now they want to play games and are forcing me to go through Consumer Affairs which they seem not to care about at all after dismissing my initial letter of complaint completely, and with a certain cheerful vindictiveness.

I'm always on the hunt for comfortable, nice-looking footwear. It's no mean feat. I wouldn't say…read moreFootgear aims to provide trendy footwear, but it does stock a great range of brands for which comfort is the focus. I'm a Birkenstock fan and find that Footgear Indooroopilly has quite a good range. It's a bit on the pricey side--you can expect to pay upward of $100--but I find that's pretty standard for these kinds of shoes. The service is friendly, but I find it's often only manned by one person, so if you're the second, third or fourth customer waiting to try on a shoe, you could be waiting a few minutes. Other than that, a good shop with a good range of quality, practical shoes.

They have a very limited range of flats, but every imaginable style and height of heel. I honestly have to ask, who wears these shoes apart from "exotic dancers" and drag queens? Do regular women wear these out on a Saturday night? The shoes are so brightly coloured or covered in sequins and the heels are enormously high, plus with a 3 inch platform at the front. How can anyone walk in these? I don't do heels at the best of times, plus platforms and heels like this scare me rotten. They do stock a small range of T.U.K. shoes, in both flats and heels, which I absolutely adore. Very cool, rock-a-billy patterned shoes!

Very on-trend, the store is full to the brim with bright colours, higher-than-high heels, and towering platforms. I've wandered in a few times to browse for work shoes, but it's really not that type of shop. The range of flats is also limited. Prices are not too bad, so if colours and height are what you're looking for, it's the place for you.

Zomp is a shoe wonderland/warehouse/factory/unbelievably amazing place. I saw bright-coloured shoes…read morethrough the window and thought, "oh yes, this shop looks nice" and then had to wipe the gleeful shock from my face as soon as I stepped inside because if I have a weakness for anything (other than vintage luggage), it's shoes. Seasonal shoes and classic shoes and flat shoes and sandal shoes and shoes that are totally not practical and shoes that I would most certainly ruin with a day's wear. Zomp has everything. It's just wall-to-wall of shoes in the latest styles like wedges and chunky heels, but also classic black pumps, cute work-appropriate flats, and summery sandals. Zomp is a shoe lover's DREAM. There is literally a style to cater for every girl (sorry guys) and for every occasion. For a store along James Street, prices are also quite reasonable. The pumps and wedges that I kept picking up ranged between $130 to about $180, which is what you would pay at regular quality shoe stores like Wittner and Zu. Plus the styles are to die for, so I would gladly make that investment. The girls are also friendly and engage you in conversation, but you can also freely meander around the store to gaze at these wondrous shoes. If you're stuck for shoes for a particular occasion, visit Zomp and I almost guarantee you'll find the very thing you need or, at the very least, walk out with something you don't need, but absolutely love.

The shelves are stacked with skyscraper heels, wedges and flats just waiting to be paired with all of your outfits. The staff are super friendly and (seemingly) don't seem to mind traipsing upstairs to find shoes for your every whim. These guys have saved me from a sad shoe-less fate on numerous occasions. (Most recently, sending shoes from sydney just in time for christmas.) This attractive store coupled with an relaxed environment make shoe shopping a (very enjoyable) breeze. Good lookin' and affordable to boot I would definitely recommend sussing this place out.
