    The conversation I had with the sales associate from Famous Footwear.
    Matt L.

    Let me set the stage I am a stay at home dad of my 6 biological kids and I also watch my friends 3 kids during the summer. So I was doing some back to school shoe shopping for ALL 9 children ranging from 12 to 3. I went into the store and was quickly greeted by a sales associate. It was not busy and the kids were doug just fine. They went in and sat on the benches and waited for their turn to try on shoes. I got asked by the associate if I needed help, I kindly said. It thank, I'm just getting shoes. I will be attaching a screen shot of my Facebook post I made about the store as well. She kindly told me that, "I'm being asked to see if all these kids are with you" I said yes, they're all mine. (It's easier to say then explaining it all) "Is the mom around too?" No she's not, do YOU need her for something? "Oh ok, we just didn't think you'd be able to handle them all on your own." I then said, no we're doing just fine. Then I told my kids that we don't need anything from this store and we will go look somewhere else. I will never go into that store again.

    Have passed by this Famous Footwear store many times. Finally, stepped inside recently. They were having a Buy 1 pair get one pair 1/2 off sale. Wide selection of shoes featuring many name brands. I was unsuccessful in my search for shoes. Too expensive for me. Wifey was successful. She scored a couple of good deals from the Clearance rack. Noticed that they have a mobile app and rewards club. May have added deals if you join. Overall, the shop was clean and organized. Staff was available if assistance had been needed. Would stop in again.

    I enjoy shopping at Famous Footwear for its bargain prices without the whole "bargain basement" feel. They carry a lot of name brands. They stock high fashion brands such as Nine West, Fergaliicious, Etienne Aigner, CL by Chinese Laundry, Steve Madden, and Calvin Klein. They have comfort brands and athletic brands like Aerosoles, Lifestride, Adidas, Nike, Crocs, Mootsies Tootsies, Puma, New Balance, Skechers, ASICS. You name it, you can probably find it here... at a much reduced price. My favorite part, though. Is that you just don't feel like you're having to work to find your bargains the way you do at other discount retailers such as Ross, TJ Maxx, and Marshalls. The store is clean (almost immaculate) and well-lit (lots of windows bringing in natural light). The store is well merchandised. In fact, it feels like you're shopping in a regular shoe store, just paying less. I have found the shoes are well organized. It is easy to first find the display shoe I like and then find it in my size and color. They seem to have a good selection of athletic shoes, sandals, casual shoes, dress shoes, and boots. The quality is high and the bargains are good. Try it out!

    This is nasty...people sit with there clean clothes on these very dirty benches

I leave work and arrive at the store at 12:07pm. I checked in with the person at the door and she told me I was late for my appt and that I would be canceled or skipped. I explained to her that I was on my lunch hour and I had to drive there. She kept going on about how i should have texted or called if I was going to be late. She would not stop. There was a person in line behind me that heard the whole thing. I had to stop the check in person and ask her if I can go in or not. I walked in then she proceeded to tell the customer behind me that she had to wait because I was late. I spoke with the manager regarding the whole situation, which she did not apologize for or seem to care at all. This is the last time I will shop at our local store. Maybe the last time I ever shop there again. lululemon lululemon Bakersfield Ca.

I went straight to Yelp to find the had a low rating mainly due to customer service. Not sure why because my experience what awesome. This store was once the Bakersfield Scuba location which appears that they took over the business that was next door because from my memory it's a lot bigger. The store was absolutely packed with shoppers and staff that was working there. At first it was hard to tell the difference because other than the few guys that were in there everyone was in yoga pants. I was promptly created by a cheerful eager to make my experience a good one young lady. I told her what I was looking for and within 5 to 10 minutes I had an outfit purchased for my awesome wife. I can see why my friend at work likes this store so much, between the awesome customer service and great selection of clothing for both men and women you could easily spend your pay check her. Hopefully everything fits so my wife doesn't some and spend more lol Awesome job!!! For those that gave them one star you should give them a second chance and update you review.

She is neither helpful nor courteous and her staff is equally useless. Order supplies online or go to All That Jazz instead to avoid a massive headache and a huge expense. I made 4 trips to this location with 2 restless toddlers to purchase tap and ballet shoes. First, the OWNER tried to sell me shoes that didn't fit my children. I could see that the shoes were tight and I told her that it appeared so. She told me that this is how they are supposed to fit. I almost bought that nonsense until my daughter told me it hurt too bad to stand wearing those shoes! Then, the woman tried to sell girl's tap shoes to me for my son since she didn't have any boy's styles in stock in his size. Finally, she agreed to order a pair of boys shoes. On my 2nd trip there, the clerk told me the shoes were in and tried to sell me a pair of adult shoes! They had not ordered the toddler shoes. I thought this was a one-time mistake and boy was I wrong! The 3rd trip, the owner called me saying the shoes were in, but they had nothing in stock again when I got there. The owner insisted it was a problem with their supplier and promised to order from a different company. She did, hence, trip number 4. When I went to pick up the shoes, the price was almost double what I would have paid for the shoes that were originally going to be ordered!! To top it all off, the owner is rude. She is overpriced to begin with, but with offer you a "discount" if you pay with cash. I found out after the fact that I could have just purchased this stuff cheaper by making a trip downtown, no discount needed!
