No flats that caught my eye or peaked my interest enough today. Folks are mostly spaced out, except it's a bit tight by the clearance section. I saw some strange and furry crocs and Steve Madden shoes. I must have missed this trend. I did see interesting short boots and pumps, but was mostly looking for flats today. read more

First off, sign up for their rewards. It's free, simple and fast- and totally worth it! They send you rewards often. I've been a rewards member ever since I started having kids- for nearly 15 years. When you have kids, you know they go through shoes as fast as they grow. The rewards have saved me so much $ over the years! I'll be honest, I haven't shopped at DSW since Covid. And because of that, I think, they sent me a HUGE coupon recently. It was a coupon for $30 OFF anything over the purchase of $49. Wow! That IS huge! I'm a huge fan of Vans. Like, it's the only shoes I wear. But as an employee at a gym (Lifetime Fitness) as a yoga teacher, I need actual gym shoes. Not that I need gym shoes for yoga, we do yoga bare feet. But gym shoes for my busy feet are much needed. The shoes I've been wearing are NIKE, and are nearly 3.5 years old. Yes. That's old for gym shoes. And the miles put on them are more then I can count. It was time to retire them- LOL. Walking into DSW, a stench hit me like a freight train. It was almost to the point of gaging. Was it all the people trying on shoes!!?? It was so bad I didn't think I'd be able to last long enough to find shoes. But I was on a mission and wanted to use my $30 Off coupon. It literally took me 10 minutes to find a pair of black Pumas, built in sock style. They had only 1 pair in my size 8. They were priced $59.99. I quickly browsed the clearance section, which was stocked with kids Vans. Plus the clearance section was an extra 20-60% Off!! I wanted to pick up all 6 kids some new Vans but the smell was seriously too overwhelming. I'll try to come back later. Seriously!! What is that smell!!?? Stinky feet!!? Check out was super fast and the cashier, Grace was friendly and welcoming. She physically checked both shoes and made sure they were the same size and zapped my $30 Off coupon. It didn't worked initially, but the manager quickly came over and fix the problem. I was literally in and out of the store in under 20 minutes with a new pair of Puma sneakers. Again, regular price $59.99, but after my $30 Off rewards coupon - only $31.79! I plan on going back and getting all 6 kids some new clearance Vans. They had some cool/unique pairs I have seen. Join the rewards and check this place out. It's everything for your feet. From casual, to dress, sneakers to sandals, socks to odds and ends. read more

Buyer be ware!.....DSW is now using a 3rd party for their returns. I was denied a return of a pair of shoes that were not worn, were within the return time, and with receipt in hand. The reason: too many returns. I shop a lot on line, and keep most of what I purchase. There was no appreciation whatsoever for the many many shoes I've purchased and kept only about the ones returned. Most of my purchases are done on line, especially with less and less brick and mortar stores available, and so returns are inevitable. When the staff person told us the return was denied, we were treated like criminals. Again, buyer be ware when purchasing at DSW. read more

I have a shoe obsession. I absolutely love shoes. I don't always get practical ones. But I am a little insane. For example. At last count I have about 10 pairs of red heels. Some are still in the box never worn. I mostly love Sandles and boots. I have a ridiculous amount. Shoes make the outfit. I can typically go to DSW and get what I need. Even last minute or in a pinch. They have brand names that are supposedly cheaper. Lol. Not always sure about that but regardless, they have just about everything. I often prefer to order on line as it's hit or miss size wise. I wear a size 7 which seems to be a fairly average size for women. Ordering on like is easy and you walk in and show I'd and you go. Super easy. The staff is always friendly and ready to help. They have an abundance of accessories and purses as well. These are cheap discount shoes. Check it out! You won't be sorry! read more

DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse - Shoe Stores Near Me - Sterling Heights, Michigan

I had a good experience at this DSW. Picked up some shoes for my daughter and a Burt's Bees. When I went to pay the cashier typed in my rewards number and noticed I had an expired $10 coupon. She was very gracious and applied it. I really appreciate that high level of customer service, and going above and beyond! This location is a bit far so I don't normally frequent it, but I will be inclined to come more often since the staff was so friendly and helpful. They also had some great prices on Hunter boots, several under $100! DSW in general is my go to place for the family since they have every type of footwear and good brand names that the kids like. read more

DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse - Fall shoes - Shoe Stores Near Me - Sterling Heights, Michigan

As a woman I think the stereotype that I need 500 pairs of shoes (or more) is accurate. That being said I love DSW. This location has a decent selection and pretty helpful floor staff if you can find them. They do have a nice accessory section with your purses,earring,socks and shoe treatments like rain protection and shine products. The clearance selection is okay, however there is no real lighting over it so its hard to see what you're digging in. If you take your time you can usually find a decent deal though. Overall if you like a discount on a name brand, you'll get it. read more

I'm definitely a fan of this store and have found my share of shoes from here. Whether sandals, athletic or dress shoes, I've found something to (pardon the pun) "foot" the bill! I always check out the clearance section because you never know what you'll find. I love the DSW rewards and receiving coupons. For Christmas, I received a DSW gift card and with the reward I earned, I walked out with a pair of athletic shoes and some shoe laces for next to nothing. Yep, receiving these coupons keeps me coming back and it's always one of the first stores I look at when shopping for shoes. There's always plenty of help at the registers and there's always someone ready to help you out on the floor if necessary. Finding my size in a particular shoe that strikes my eye is usually the only challenge I've had. There have been times when I've found something I like only for them not to have my size. I don't want to order online if they don't have my size because finding the perfect fitting shoe is very hit and miss. I'd rather find a second choice that's in stock and try it on in the store. But this happens at any shoe store you go to so it's not a big deal or a deal breaker for me. Other times I find a shoe I like and in my size and I score a home run! The prices are about average, but with the help of a coupon or reward or gift card, it definitely helps the budget minded shopper. P.S. My husband has also purchased a few pairs of shoes from here and he likes shopping at this store as well and he's not a big 'shopper' so that says a lot too! read more

Phenomenal service. I received a pair of shoes that was damaged. This was the second time I had an issue. The shoes came directly from the manufacturer, not DSW. I asked if I could receive expedited shipping and they gave me a gift card to cover the cost of the shoes. I wouldn't even have thought to ask for a discount. The manager is just amazing. What a great way to make the customer happy and keep them coming back ! THANK YOU!!! read more

Okay yes DSW... The Designer Shoe Warehouse is my weakness. Whenever my boyfriend goes into Best Buy I make a trip to go next door to DSW and get my shoe shopping fix satisfied... whenever I come here I always walk out of the place like I sold something because I end up using my rewards and coupons and saving like 80% off the pair of shoes I find. My best tip for DSW is sign up for their rewards program it is awesome. Take advantage of the app as well. Your birthday month you get free $5 reward and as of January 2020 you got a $10 award now I have a free $15 so I can get to use at DSW. If you're like me and like Bargains check out the back of the store that's where all the clearances are. Sometimes they hide the clearances in with the normal shoes to so make sure you keep your eyes open for the sign their color coded based on the percentage off so you go over at directly to your size and once you're in your size you just look for a specific color and that dictates how much percentage off it's going to be. I've walked out of here before with $150 pair of shoes for $9 now who can beat that. The next time you need some shoes come check this place out. read more

DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse - Super good deal - Shoe Stores Near Me - Sterling Heights, Michigan

Pretty fast, friendly service , even on returns. Large selection of shoes.

Personally I never liked DSW, l went there to get shoes and the store just felt odd and the selection was lacking.

HUGE selection of shoes. Lots of women's shoes, ladies you're sure to find a dazzling new pair for that new dress. For men, there are plenty of dress shoes, some sandals, and casual shoes, but not a huge selection of up to date men's sports though, so don't expect a Foot Locker type section. In my honest opinion, the clearance rack has good deals, but the general sales floor is mostly average deals and nothing to write home about. When you cross out the maximum MSRP and reduce the price a little, that is just doing what nearly any store does these days. Therefore, the D in DSW only stands for Designer. Often folks like to say it stands for Discount, but I beg to differ. Better deals can usually be had elsewhere. Basically, these guys are best known for their huge selection and sheer amount of square footage all dedicated to our square feet! Admittedly, loyal customers who sign up can get a $5 off birthday coupon, as well as occasional other coupons in the mail - which can make this store more appealing to check out. read more

Good customer service, greater selection (size wise) than Rochester. It's nice and close, so I'd go back for sure. Easy returns.. Nice employees. read more

After I had been in the store 20 minutes, a female manager insisted I wear a mask, even though I tried telling her the EO's have been ruled unconstitutional by the Mi Supreme Court so there is no longer any "law" demanding mask-wearing. She repeated several times that it is still a state mandate and refused my offer to show her the Supreme Court's ruling. Since she was very upset, I reassured her that I would not be shopping there, after all....and then I left. read more

DSW IS BRINGIN' IT! I usually am a DSW hater because all the INSANE clearance shoes are all for those disgusting lttle foot people...I unfortunately have a little sasquatch running in the family. This store must have gotten a shipment in for fall but they have a TON of great shoes. Bring a few extra coins for the new arrivals..If you're a serious shopper you'll notice some great deals on the designer shoes that are at least 20%-30% less than the department store. The clearance was really good with addtional markdowns. Sometimes you can find crazy deals like $10 designer shoes but usually they're a good sale on shoes that were $100 for 60%OFF or something. Find of the day: HOT $40 suede sandals with fringe that were $129.00 on norstrom.com read more

I've have gone to this location about 10 times. I left only twice with a pair of shoes. 80% of the time they don't have my size. Which is 6.5 not an uncommon size. Selection of Nike shoes is a little small.. Also spread out with other brands in between which I don't like. It's pretty much just a bunch of dress boots. read more

I was very disappointed with their return system. I purchased two identical pair of boots for Christmas gifts. I do my shopping ahead of time and when one of the gifts was returned they would not charge back my account. The box and boots were in mint condition. Not even tried on. They were simply the wrong color. They said they do not have holiday returns. I was over the 60 day limit they have for returns. I won't be purchasing any gifts from DSW again. They were very hard to deal with. read more

The best selection of shoes in the metro area. The staff is their to make your life easy. And they did. Christmas is coming so I needed to get something great for my wife and she has make it clear that she wanted some boots, brown boots. And if I want to have any rest I better get it done before the big day. You guessed it I got my boots at DSW. The young lady was kind enough to order the size I needed to keep me living at home. Thanks DSW on time and the right size. BUT not cheap. read more

So many shoes, so little time. Love how DSW places sandles, high heels ,loafers ect together. Makes it so easy to shop. Ended up buying three really cool pair of shoes I needed. All were bargin at 30 to 50 % off. 3 pairs for only $120.00. Can't wait to return for more deals. read more

Thr store did not have my size for a pair of shoes in the store so cashier offered to order online and have them sent to my house, she then ordered the incorrect size after I had confirmed the size with her a couple times. Received email indicating incorrect size was ordered on my account. Had to slug thru rush hour traffic back across town to fix. Cashier admitted she had entered wrong size and that it was the 2nd time that day she had done that with an order. Manager was pleasant when presented with issues,order was cancelled but could not refund immediately, said it would deduct from account in the next 3-5 days and could not give me any printed or digital confirmation when asked twice about it, just wrote with pen on receipt "3-5days"(after i asked him not to). if u can take my money immediately why can't u return it as fast when YOU are in error DSW? Since he had to call the warehouse to stop the order and also their comps were running extremely slow. Took about 20min for transaction when it should be 5min. Manager was nice but still am not happy about my experience. read more

I decided to give myself a pair shoes as my birthday present to myself today. They have signs claiming to have your size just ask a Sales Associate. That's the joke. After over a half an hour in the store I could not find a sales associate. I've better things to do with my day then walk around begging for assistance. read more
