I just ordered a pair of the Hey Dude Disney Toy Story Jessie Shoes. They are super cute and comfy. First time wearing them the right shoe did put a cut on my right ankle. Probably because my socks weren't high enough. The shoe is very comfortable I just think there was a thickness on the inseam on just one of the shoes that irritated my ankle but that's not a huge problem. These are also my first pair of this brand of shoes too! If you're looking to buy the new Disney style of Hey Dude this is just something to think about. read more

DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse - What I ordered - Shoe Stores Near Me - Buena Park, California

A little pricey, friendly service. Wish there was more women high heels selection. Did find formal shoes on the clearance rask.

The store is clean and well organized. The staff are nice and helpful. They have good variety of shoes, boots, and accessories. They have their usual sales area 30%-60% and they also have random sales depending on the days. If you are DSW member, you can apply coupons on top of the sales which is very good value. The store is located in next to Ross, TJMaxx, Burlington and Walmart. They recently added IMBOX Protection for your foot ware at $8.99 at the checkout. read more

Ive been here a few times. The shop offers a ton of options for men, women and children. I specifically stopped in with my guy for work boots. The selection was small offering a few Wolverine and CAT styles. The prices were at or slightly below ot above $100.00. Which is about average. If you are looking for Sketcher work boots I didnt see any. Remember boys, coupons cant be used on these boots. For us ladies, they have beautiful shoes at affordable prices. I am already tall enough and trip over anything a lot of these shoes would cause injury. They also have a great selection of sneakers, boots, etc. I saw some teeny tiny adult pocket umbrellas that can be folded up and placed in a purse or back pocket. ($19.99). Parking sucks here. Do yourself a favor and park near the old Sears building. Im not sure why parking sucks. Maybe it has to do with the resturants. read more

Only problem I have here is that they are notoriously known for people and homeless coming in to shoplift. Service is awesome, was helped out by someone named ariel who had a great attitude and made the visit nice. Shoes are pretty decent, nice variety and not crazy overpriced, especially clearance sections. Store is clean as well which is always a plus. read more

Walked in and was immediately greeted. Although there are rows of shoes, and seemingly a mediocre selection there were no boots and since that's what I was specifically shopping for I was disappointed in the visit. I did peruse just to see what else was offered and there were plenty of sneakers, purses and sandals. Perhaps I'll return when I'm shopping for those. read more

Love the selection of women shoes, but last time I was there 2/18/24 in the evening the security guard (Johny) made my shopping experience very uncomfortable. As soon as we walked in speaking Spanish my kids went straight to the toys, well he looked at them like they were going to run out with them mind you they are little kids! He wouldn't stop looking over at my kids, even telling my son where were the pokemon cards he was looking at when he had put them back right in front of his face. We felt discriminateted and until I confronted him he stayed away from us. The store is leaking everywhere, no Restrooms, and no back exit to mall. I prefer the one in downey. read more

Wanted to quickly run in just to see if they carried a certain type of shoe, but the doors were already locked 10 minutes before the posted closing time. The workers just looked at me and turned back around, good work guys. read more

This review is mostly about one employee that went above and beyond to help me with an online exchange today. I have had very hit or miss experiences with this location. The last couple times I have been in I have not had positive experiences. Today was the opposite experience. I noticed one employee, Silvia, that was really going out of her way to help the customer in front of me. What it was my turn she also went above and beyond to help me out. The details aren't really important but she turned my opinion around of this store in particular. It would be nice if more employees genuinely enjoyed their jobs like she seemed to. For now, I will continue to return to the store for shoe purchases in the future. read more

One word behind why I knocked it one star: overwhelming! It's like they tried to pack as many shoes into a regular sized store as possible. I had gone to pick up an online order, but I can honestly see why so many people are choosing to shop online and have it delivered. I hadn't been in to a DSW in years (like pre-pandemic), and I don't feel like I've been missing much. I feel like some of the shoes you find here you can find cheaper online in other stores during their sales. Walked out with only my online order, and to be honest- it may be going back. They looked much nicer online. read more

Always the best selection with quality shoes! I always find what I'm looking for. My go to store for all my shoes.

I came here looking for my daughter's Homecomjng shoes. When I asked for help I was told they don't carry her size, Womens 12 in store. Only Online. Sylvia was still SO HELPFUL. She told me the brands they did carry that ran big. She even looked down the aisles with me to make she gave the right ones, and told me If they didn't fit I had 90 days to return them. I ended up going with a JLO Brand Size 11. AND THEY FIT MY DAUGHTER PERFECTLY. Never had this experience anywhere. Sylvia going above and beyond saved me hours of shopping. The store also had lots of style options as well which was a plus. read more

I had a birthday reward and tried using it on my purchase. The cashier was a younger Asian male and denied my request. He looked up both my email and phone number. He said my account was not linked with DSW to use the reward... How is it not linked when I have been making purchases before?! I contacted customer service and was told my account was linked.. The cashier was just useless. read more

Jeez, the employee that has a name spelled something like Pitrika (I know I'm spelling it wrong) provides terrible customer service. Zero greetings, I had to greet her myself to break the awkwardness. She seemed very inconvenienced by having assist me during my 1 minute visit to the store. I thanked her and walked away, still no reply. read more

I usually pick up my shoes here and normally the staff here is so helpful and friendly but today I was helped by a young woman who obviously doesn't like her job. Rudeness is no way too greet customers. If you don't like your job find another or better yet don't work at the counter helping customers. Stock shelves or something! read more

I came in to to buy some items last minute and while shopping I needed to use the restroom. I found the restroom, but it had been blocked by a dolly and handwritten sign that said, "no customers beyond this point." I respectfully asked a store employee if I could use the restroom and she said no, it was only for employees. I explained that I had an emergency and needed a restroom. Needless to say, I walked out of that store and promised myself to never shop there again. I was humiliating to explain my situation, and still received no compassion from this employee. read more

I give it 3 stars because the shoes are cheap. But I took away the other 2 stars because the employees are lazy, unhelpful, and slow. read more

This place discriminates coupon users. I was there with my wife buying shoes for my toddlers. I tried using the free cooler coupon but the manager said I was not in the system and therefore I wasn't allowed to use the coupon. He made it sound like I was stealing someone else's deal. Hello? The coupon says, Customer A or Current Resident! I ended up not purchasing anything from this garbage store. Nasty crooks are running this business. read more

DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse - Unusable coupon = trash - Shoe Stores Near Me - Buena Park, California

This is for support on DSW. Apparently taking my money over Venmo, because of a computer glitch, as well as my coupon is acceptable. If your computer is glitching out just close the screen, because DSW will accuse you of not understanding afterpay. Venmo and afterpay are totally different. I'd like my $77.57 back since it's not an order. read more

The store and employees were good. Leaving a one star review because DSW has decided its too much to offer their paying customers who are purchasing their inventory a bag for their purchases. Ridiculous how businesses want customers to please THEM now or go around THEIR NEEDS instead of the other way around. Companies just want more and more from customers they should be grateful a person decides to purchase from them...how it USED to be. Businesses uses to go above and beyond for customers. These policies are no good. However the cashier was nice enough to give me a bag after she saw me struggling to walk out the door with 3 boxes of shoes, a toy while trying to hold my toddlers hand to go out into a busy parking lot. read more

First time coming here was pretty ok, I was asked to enroll in there system and I got a coupon for next time claiming it was going to knock off $10 of my purchase. Went back a few days later with my coupon and all, picked out my shoes and headed to the register. Upon getting my purchase and coupon scanned they said that it doesn't apply to nikes and other items. Like WTF!! Never going back again! read more

This may be my least favorite DSW. Yes I have to admit I shop here. I pretty much strictly shop the clearance shoes for new work options as my previous ones wear out, for casual dress shoes, and for boots. I have bought maybe 4 pairs of shoes from DSW in the last 3-4 years. I normally always shop the clearance section at DSW. However the clearance section at this location is downright awful. They have almost nothing in the men's clearance section. I was astounded that the clearance area here was so small when compared to other DSWs. It is a giant sized store though. However, they are catering to women with a passion as they have a very small comparatively speaking men's selection. This is for new shoes as well. When I come in I am always on the lookout for Doc Martens or Steve Madden dress shoes and I was stunned to see none of either here. The staff here is not like most of the others in this chain. Perhaps they are busier or I was there at a bad time, but I didn't get much customer service response and didn't even see anyone on the floor who was an employee. Be forewarned that parking is a major issue here as well. When I came by the mall must have been flooded with tourists as it wasn't a shopping weeknight and the lot was literally full. I had to wait about 15 minutes to find a parking space. So yeah, I don't think I will be back to this DSW location. read more

I like the concept of DSW Shoes I mean who wouldn't want to look at 100's of different shoes? Every girl of course thinks that they will find the one pair that will make them look fabulous! But what DSW lacks is having the right size!!! I always come here and look around and I think I found THE ONE....but it ends up that they don't have the size GrRRrRrRRR!!!!! I have been looking for nice boots lately since the cold weather is kicking in and I want to be able to get at least three boots this season. So I went to DSW to try to find some and the selection was large but the sizes :( well lets just say I didn't buy anything at DSW!! read more

Shoutout to Sylvia she helped me track down the shoes I was looking for and was very patient on the phone. She even helped me add a birthday coupon because it disappeared when I tried to use it online. read more

Designer Shoe Warehouse...and boy are they designer prices but not with any designer names I recognize....then again I'm no shoe guru. I've been to DSW four to five times in my life and each time I can never find anything that screams "must take home!" The shoes are really not that cute and seem a little old lady for my taste. Call me crazy, but I will be DAMNED if I pay $40-$60 for flats or sandals. That should seriously be illegal. To be frank, I just don't even see them as $40-$60 quality. They don't have anything special added as any other basic flats or sandals that I could find in a small shoe store in the same mall...except the designer name that an average person wouldn't recognize. Granted the clearance prices are more reasonable, but the shoes are still ugly and just basic. There is NOTHING special about these "designer" shoes. As for the handbags and wallet selection at the front of the store...do yourself a favor and visit the Ross in the same complex to find a similar handbag and/or wallet for less than half the price. You can thank me later. Sorry for the bashing but here's another one...the layout if the shoes is completely illogical. It's seriously a huge space of unattractive aisles of shoe boxes stacked on top of one another. It's the most unpleasant and boring layout that makes your shopping experience in that store feel like such a drag because you feel like you're walking a half mile down each aisle looking at ugly and expensive shoes. You're better off feeling poor at a Macy's shoe department....at least they have cool looking displays. read more

This DSW is huge! It is much larger than other locations that I have been to. This store is located in the corner of Buena Park Downtown and is one of the few stores worth coming to at this mall. DSW, Walmart, and Portillo's are the only reasons I would come here. The inside of the mall is plain depressing. There were more carts for $$$ for gold than real stores. But back to DSW... Their selection is large but the sale shoes were in disarray. I didn't want to get a headache so I just avoided the sale racks. I ended up getting two pairs of boots for Christmas. One for me and one for my cousin. I got a cute pair of brown madden girl heeled boots and I got my cousin some black wedge knee highs. She loved them! DSW is always my go to for cute shoes at a discount. The discount isn't that big though... the shoes run from $49.99-$150ish. I would never shell out over $100 at a DSW but I do like their madden girl and J by Jessica Simpson shoes. I have a pair of red patent leather pumps by Jessica Simpson that I still get compliments on. I like this store but not the location or the mall. read more

Pretty big store. Lots of choices to chose from. We went on a Sunday so the store was a little messy which is understandable. I had to return some shoes that I bought online because they sent me the wrong size and I had to do an in-store pick up order. When I asked for the order they didn't have them. The girl who helped me had to find them on the floor. That bothered me a little because they had already been paid for. She was nice and located the shoes for me. The associate who helped me return the shoes to me I felt was either new or feeling under pressure. I told her that l needed to return the online order because they sent me the wrong size. Before she was going to process the return she told me the receipt was the wrong one because the sizes didn't match from the shoe box and the online receipt. I told her again I was returning them because they had sent me the wrong size. Honestly it should have been a one minute process and she probably took like 10 minutes. Overall I would probably go again during the weekday when they aren't as busy. read more

My mom and I frequent this DSW since it's the closest location around and they often send flyers/coupons that has great deals. They typically have a large sale section with various colored sticker discounts and I've been able to score some awesome finds for 40-50% off :D I get REALLY excited for the 50% off ones! ;) There's a wide range of brands and large selection of styles/sizes too! Not sure if this location gets too much love though since it's part of the Buena Park Mall (which is trying to modernize itself into Downtown Buena Park) My favorites are the Nine West and the Me Too brands. I rarely buy anything full price here as there's constant sales. The workers there have always been helpful for me as well so I'll continue to get my shoe shopping fix here! (And Ross). read more

DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse - 30-50% off sale - Shoe Stores Near Me - Buena Park, California

Well, the store is located in a not-so-fancy-location, and in a not-so-high-end-city and yet the prices of the shoes here are like diamonds in the sky. Let me start though by writing, the parking is plenty- not so crazy. The store is clean, organized, and spacious. It never get too busy. Wide great selections of shoes. The men's shoes are trendy specially those black leather shoes. Staffs seem courteous. Unfortunately, I have a secret place that offers the same kind of shoes with lower price, so I rarely shop here. read more

DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse - Recently bought it, already falling apart. Talked to a manager today - go fix it and bring receipt, no comments.. - Shoe Stores Near Me - Buena Park, California

Waiting in line for over 20 minutes and started third person in line. Their systems aren't working and they didn't explain or try to bring up another cashier. This is ridiculous. Won't be coming back to this location again! read more

Haven't been in here for a while (Not a DSW near us) but my little guy was in need of shoes & he didn't want the typical shoes his friends all have or Vans. We didn't care about price & decided to bring him here. He found shoes he loved really fast in his size, Great selection & Great price ! Very clean organized store. I was having trouble remembering which rewards number I had but knew I had a coupon & I figured it out after my purchase was done but Adrian the cashier was very helpful (was happy to help) & had no problem with the help of a manager to adjust my purchase. We checked out fast. Perfect customer service!! I like to usually get shoes from (Kohl's but no good size options always calling stores for availability). Glad we came here to DSW today & im going to start shopping here again. Coupon saved us $10. So shoes cost $39. That's a great deal, so we let Little guy pick a pair of cute Bunny slippers for little sister ( Surprised, No thick cheap foam inside... appropriate for her to run around indoors) , great price as well. We will be back soon for our daughters shoes since we earned a reward towards the next purchase. Thanks DSW, Great job! Happy to spend $$ in businesses that appreciate our business. read more

DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse - Fuzzy Bunny slippers & Boys Black Nike shoes. - Shoe Stores Near Me - Buena Park, California

So far this is the best DSW that I've been to. They have much more men selection of shoes then the store that is in Brea. I also felt that the cashiers were really nice so I appreciated their hospitality while I was there. Easy parking also makes this a place that I will visit again I can get in look at some shoes and get out really quickly without much hassle. read more

This DSW looks like a locker room full of shoes. Actually almost every DSW looks like this (except the one by South Coast Plaza). It's messy. I can't keep the shoe styles in my head. I just plain old don't like it. Enough said. read more

If you are looking for beautiful designer shoes at an affordable price, you've found heaven. I won't lie, I love fashion and my standards are a little high when it comes to buying shoes or clothes. DSW does not disappoint. They have such a variety of shoes in so many different brands. I often want to buy at least three to four different pairs of shoes. I get numerous compliments on the shoes that I buy. Usually I buy brands like Guess, Aldo, Unisa, Chinese Laundry, Dr. Scholl's and more. Just by the list I just gave, you can tell that they have a wide range of brands available at this store. What is the best is that I still get the expensive look of all these shoes at one forth to half the price. Honestly, I am surprised that this place has such low ratings. This place is amazing!! If you are a real bargain shopper, make sure to visit the sales rack. They cut the already discount prices of the shoes by 30% - 60%. I've gotten shoes that were originally $80 for $20! Like I said, this place is impressive. If you are in need of a pair of shoes, make sure to check this place out. As far as the customer service is, I never really had a problem with it. The employees are polite and keep the store pretty clean. I've had workers offer to put shoes away. They cashiers are speedy and helpful. I have done numerous exchange and returns here and not once have I gotten an annoyed cashier or manager. This place is great! Make sure to check them out. read more

Lots of shoes to choose from at a great price! You will more than likely find something here if you really take the time to look.

Crapy! A Payless Shoe store looks better then this place. The set up is bad. You have to hunt when you come here - and its not hunting for a decent price - its hunting for the type of shoe you want, and then you hunt for your size. Good luck! The prices are super high - not at all a good deal for a shoe warehouse! So I suggest you change your name.... I mean, why not just go to a department store and pay full price? At least then you have a shot at some type of sale going on at the time. I got the same exact shoes for my boyfriend that were $75 at DSW (The tag said compare to $89) ... I went next door to sears and found the same shoes on sale for $39 bucks! What a joke this place is. Even their clearance section is something of a joke. read more

I really don't like this store. It's a big DSW with lots of shoes to choose from. But the prices? It's expensive. The store itself doesn't feel high-end enough to be so pricey. Even with so many shoes to choose from, the selection itself can be distasteful. I'm wondering how this store is still in business. Most of the employees I've met here don't really care about providing customer service to anybody. Basically, I think it's an okay store. It's really hit-or-miss. Most of their sale/clearance items are still oddly overpriced. Parking usually is crowded. I wouldn't hate to go back here but I also wouldn't jump at the opportunity because there are many better places to go for designer shoes. read more

I love shoes and was really looking forward on buying a pair of booties for this winter. When I asked the associate if I could get a balance check on my gift card they asked me to stand in line with the people who were waiting to purchase. I work in retail and waiting in a line of about 15 customers to get a balance check is pathetic. I plan to sell this card and take my business elsewhere. read more

I called in to see if they had the shoe I was looking for in my size. Just figured I'd be smart and call before driving up there and wasting gas if they don't have it. I took a picture of the barcode of the shoe before I called, so when I called, I would be ready. When I called, I got the usual greeting. I then asked for the associate to look up a shoe for me to see if they have it in my size. To my surprise, I hear a whisper over the phone with an attitude, "Oh my God!" I was caught off guard and my phone was being a little weird. So I asked the guy on the line to hold a bit as I look up the shoe. With an attitude, he asked if I went up on the website to check (which I did and had no luck, hence the call). But I was frustrated so I hung up. Called back again and got the same dude, with the same, "Oh my God," followed by a lie saying that they don't have any boots in the brand I was looking for. Well, he wasn't helpful so if I wanted something done right, I had to do it myself. No surprise to me, I FOUND the shoes I was looking for. The reason why I'm giving this DSW 2 stars is simply because the manager agreed to speak to me. I told him very calmly that his employee's (I stated his name to the manager) attitude and response over the phone in two separate incidents were very unprofessional to a paying customer. If this individual does not like to do his job, he should quit or he should be fired because either way, he's not representing the company in a manner that matches with the company's values that are listed on the internet. If the manager also gave me attitude, I would see if yelp could do negative stars. DSW had generally been a good place to shop for shoes. This is my first bad experience. read more
