Red Wing - He's and hers shoes ! - Shoe Stores Near Me - Long Beach, California

This place is a joke. The customer service is quite possibly the slowest and most incompetent I've encountered at any Red Wing store. I'm a returning customer and have been purchasing Red Wing boots for work for more than 15 years. Here's my experience on 6/8/26 at approximately 12:45 p.m. I walked into the store and found one employee assisting a customer. I was asked to sign the waiting list, which I did. After waiting approximately 10 minutes, two employees came out from the back. One of them told me they would be right with me. I then waited another 10-15 minutes before receiving any assistance. At that point, there was still only one customer being helped despite having three employees in the store. One employee handed me a tablet and asked me to enter my name and email address. After I completed that, she returned and instructed me to walk on an electronic pad that measured my feet and gait. I asked if that was necessary because I already knew exactly what I wanted, I was looking to purchase the same boots I had bought in the past. She informed me that she could not help me unless I completed the foot measurement. Reluctantly, I removed my shoes and stepped onto the pad. After walking back and forth several times, she finally asked which boot I wanted. I pointed it out, and her response was, "I don't think we have your size." I then asked if she could check the back, and her reply was, "I'm pretty sure we don't have your size." At that point, I was visibly frustrated. There were no solutions offered, no suggestions made, and no effort to help me find an alternative. The entire experience felt dismissive and unprofessional. If I'm being completely honest, I don't think I'll ever return to this Red Wing location after this visit. The lack of customer service was unacceptable and a complete disappointment from a brand I've supported for more than 15 years. read more

Red Wing - Shoe Stores Near Me - Long Beach, California

Worst experience at a RedWings by far. Worst customer service I've ever experienced at any of these stores. Essentially look for yourself and then get rung up. Nowhere near the customer service Ive come to expect from the brand. You pay for the quality of product and customer service. I ended up leaving. Went to the Store in Buena Park and was reminded that not all of their stores are like this. Even the Torrance one was a trash experience. Definitely won't be back to those two stores ever again. I walked in eager to spend $400 on a pair + insoles bur the entire experience ruined that eagerness. read more

I normally don't leave bad reviews, I am really polite when it comes to interacting with workers. I know how rude people are sometimes, there was two workers working today. A Slimmer lady with black hair and a larger one with dyed blonde highlights. The larger female told me to give her a second I quietly sat down and waited for her to help some customers, for about 30 minutes. Once I saw she was done with her customers. I politely stood in front of her while she was talking to her co-worker. She completely ignored me like did not exist. I was a couple feet away from her standing there for like 10 minutes. My budget was around $500 to possibly get some new boots and insoles. I am Disappointed. Won't be coming back to this location anymore. read more

Busy here but be patient! Went in on 9/4/2025 at 10am right when they opened to try on different boots for an exchange and I was helped by 2 different people but both understood my foot sizing situation because I had surgery on one foot so it's a half size bigger/wider which makes getting any footwear difficult. They brought me 4 different sizes in different boots and I returned my Clearwaters and got the Wingshooter XD & spent $88 more. Their inventory is a little slim sometimes because this store is popular in the South Bay for long shoreman. So if you're in a rush call ahead and ask if they have what you're looking for instead of complaining when you get there and leaving a bad review. It's 2025 can also check the website and then call to confirm. Get with the times people. read more

Been buying boots here for years. Recently bought a set and after 33 hours the insides started to come apart. Took them back for warranty and at first the gal did not want to warranty them but another set of insoles. After taking about the redwing warranty they exchanged my boots but took longer than it should have. read more

This store is lack of good knowledgeable personnel kind rude also. I been coming every year and it just not getting any better not coming back anymore and I will discourage any of my friends read more

These people never answer their phone. If you call to check stock, they will not answer. Your best bet is to make a couple of trips. 1 to talk to someone and order your shoes, you'll have to go back to pick them up. read more

I've experienced poor customer service here several times throughout the years. I live close by this location so I keep coming back. Unfortunately there is unknowledgeable employees who are hired here and are not particularly friendly once you walk in. There never seems to be the correct sizes here and most of the time have a very low stock of styles and colors at this store. I can now understand the frustration from the many negative reviews. Please be warned! I can no longer recommend this location. read more

Alexia was very helpful and easy to talk with about what shoe I was looking for at the time. She greeted me as soon as I walked in and was knowledgeable about the different styles. She was quick to grab what I needed and offered other sizes. The store was clean and easy to navigate. Parking was a little difficult to find, but I can't knock them for that. read more

Red Wing - This is the women's Chelsea steel toe boot - Shoe Stores Near Me - Long Beach, California

This place used to be good now service is a joke they don't answer phone rude 3/1/23 3:30 pm read more

I'll first start by saying the shoes that I purchased are definitely great quality. Well, they were purchased for me as a Father's Day gift. The only problem was that they are a half size too big. Understandable. My wife and son purchased the size I normally wear in shoes, but the heritage boots run a little big. So I went to merely exchange the shoes. Same shoes, different size. Easy, right? WRONG. I was made to feel like this was not okay. I was told this is "there last time we can do this for you"? Weird, but okay. They then gave me the correct size and we found a blemish on em. They were unable to correct the blemish, so I told em to order me a new pair. They said this again would be a special exception. And that if they order me a new pair, and it too was blemished, that it's just too bad so sad. I'm stuck with em. NO MATTER WHAT! Ridiculous. I had them order me the new pair, and I guess I gotta pray these $350 boots aren't blemished, because I will own them no matter what. On top of that the sales associate recommended a pair of socks to go with the boot purchase. The label says for shoe sizes 9-12. I opened them and tried one sock on and the heel was above my ankle. They said I couldn't exchange those at all. So I'm stuck with socks that don't fit. This is crazy stuff. I'm buying premium stuff, but made to feel like I'm at a swapmeet with the weird service and policies. It stinks because I love the product. I guess I'll have to just find a new location. I read the rest of the reviews and see this is a common problem at this location. Sad. Quick update... HANNAH from RED WING corporate called me today and provided the service I'd expect from a manufacturer of this caliber. She's ensured me that I will never have to accept a damaged product. She also allowed me to exchange those socks. But still... the service at the store.... NO BUENO read more

Worst customer service ever!!! Workers are too busy to help there customers!!! Stood in the store for 20 mins and was never asked if I needed help! So when I asked for a shoe size I wanted I was greeted with bad attitude and treated as an inconvenience!!! read more

Outstanding service, was helped by Johnny at this location, very knowledgeable of all the products offered. Every question asked was answered in detail and with reason, not your typical "not too sure's" or "idk's" or my favorite "you should know" or "you can look it up here" this man had ANSWERS. I hope he stays around, thanks again Johnny. read more

Worst customer service. Had to call corporate to resolve issue, could have been resolved at the store if the manager didn't have such a nasty attitude. read more

Went to store 8 minutes before closing time. Store says there closed. Waste of tim. Unsatisfactory with customer service

This has got to be the worst location in history. Went through several styles none of which they have sizes for. So the recommendation is to drive to another location that "might" have your size. What's the point of this store? read more

"0" stars for this location. After a decade of trying to make this place my go to work boots store, in which I need to purchase 2 pairs of work boots a year every year for 20 years now, they are still RUDE, PUSHY, IMPATIENT, and CONDESCENDING. And you almost always have to special order common styles and sizes waiting weeks on end that almost every other store carries in stock. You're better off going to another location or to San Pedro and visiting "Urban Feet" on 6th Street. So I will be going out of my way indefinitely to fill my work boot needs. read more

All the employees greeted me as soon as I walked in and was helped very quickly. I'm happy they keep old purchases that will help with re-purchasing of old model shoes and the sizes without trying them on. I'm constantly in and out and they ate always willing to help with any questions. Definitely will keep returning to our Chasey work boots from you guys. #Local 433 Ironworkers read more

Picked up a pair of iron rangers in black. Joseph took the time to size me up and show me the difference between the standard & wide boot in the same size. Went with the wide as I added their memory foam insole as well. I'm normally a 11.5-12 in other shoes (Nike etc). These are size 11 EE (wide)..? . Think these obviously speak for themselves. Good looking and I'm sure will be comfy when broken in. Worth every penny. read more

Red Wing - Shoe Stores Near Me - Long Beach, California

See all

Went in to purchase two pairs of 2230 size 10-1/2 D. They only had one in stock. I don't live in the area so I asked if they ship and he said yeah we can ship. Then immediately said, but if you don't receive it it's not our fault. We only ship but once it's sent we don't take responsibility for you not getting it. It was obvious he thought people (or "my kind") are inherently thieves. I'm about to spend $650 no questions asked and this guy making minimum wage looks down on me? I told him I'd take my business elsewhere and left. I hope the owner of this store reads this because if he profiles all his customers like this and treats them like their money isn't green then they're losing money because of it. Guaranteed. Didn't get his name but white guy wearing a mask just under 6' maybe. My money only supports businesses with equal customer service towards me. read more

Alexia is the best. Quick turnaround on a resole. Came with new lances and oiled up. Thank you Alexia!

I've been shopping here for many years and I'm sad to say I probably will not be purchasing any more boots from here. Two stars are for the staff although they didn't do a very good job oiling my boots and the Cobbler apparently sewed one part of the boot and not the other. I also purchased a new pair and maybe it's just me but it seems like the leather and craftsmanship of the boot has gone down hill. I have never had this hard of a time breaking Redwings in. I guess I will be checking out Thorogood and Georgia Boot, hopefully they are still made in the U.S. read more

how can you not answer the phone all say long? who runs this damn store ? half assss employees always expect to get paid for little effort. thats why you work were you work at losers read more

This place is so awesome and amazing that I had to write a review. I recently began working with OCPW in the Construction Section and I needed boots. It was recommended I go to the Santa Ana location but I shortly found out that they have a VERY limited women's section (although they were also very nice). He recommended I come to the Long Beach location since they had a better selection. Anyway, so I came here and that's where I met George. He's patient, friendly and bilingual. He helped me out through the whole process and I felt like he had my best interest in mind. He also let me know about the lifetime cleaning service which I think is great; I'm looking forward to it. I walked out happy with my super comfortable 2340's women's boots read more

Red Wing - 2340 Womens Boots - Shoe Stores Near Me - Long Beach, California

This is my first time purchasing work boots from RWSS. I have to tell you I should have asked about their exchange policy before the purchase. After wearing them, in a non-industrial floor, they were the most uncomfortable work boots I have ever had in my life. When I returned to to exchange them, they said NOPE, you wear them you keep them... So much for customer satisfaction!!! The only good thins was that the young lady that I spoke was very polite and very professional; nonetheless, NO EXCHANGE. :) read more

I can't tell you what awesome service they have ! The people working there were extremely courteous and friendly. Very helpful and knowledgeable. Great all around and excellent customer service. HIGHLY recommend read more

The problem I see with this establishment is the fact that there's some employees that lack customer service. I've noticed that there's only 2 employees that make everyone else that works there look bad . This message is to management. PLEASE, PLEASE! When interviewing these folks tell them to be polite to customers and if they are not people persons to please apply somewhere else. As customers we go in there and spend our hard earned money and not to be treat like we are wasting their time . Come on I'm sure your team is better then that . read more

This location gives outstanding customer service, the manager Kara went above and beyond to help us with a defective boot purchased at another redwing shoe store (that store would not help exchange the defective product) I have been going to this location for the past 6 years but this year our job site sent myself and all employees to another red wing location. Needless to say I will be going back to this location since they always have my size in stock (the other location had to order and took 2 weeks) and above all the excellent customer service I have always gotten. read more

Let me start by saying Great and Horrible service, should always be acknowledged and today this Redwing stores customer service was Horrible. Never should someone have to come in to a business with no acknowledgement, wait in line for 5 minutes while there is 2 sales reps behind the counter (1 assisting and 1 not) and have someone just walk up and get serviced with no disregard to me waiting. I came in for one thing and could have paid and been on my way in 2 minutes, but due to poor service I didn't want to and will never spend my money where I can't get good service and especially not Horrible service. You lost one recurring customer. read more

Went in with my company voucher, was greeted within seconds by a young woman. She scanned it and let me know what section I could choose from. Showed me a few popular styles for my industry and price range. Found some great looking 6 inch boots for right at my limit. I was in and out within maybe 15 minutes? Very helpful staff and great selection. Red Wings is an expensive brand but you're paying for their quality in craftsmanship. It's an amazing brand for professionals in any industry that requires tough shoes that can keep your feet safe and take abuse without falling apart. read more

Alexia and Jiro are the best. Knowledgeable and kind. I had problems with a pair of boots and they got me squared away. Thank you again!

If I could give -10 starts I would!!!! Be carful if you buy a pair of boots from the heritage line, because if you have to exchange them for any reason, (could be that their are hurting your feet when you wear them.) To bad, red wings have a return policy that once you buy them, and use them, even for a couple hours, they can not be return or exchange. The tricky part is that " THEY DO NOT INFORM YOU AT ALL ABOUT THIS POLICY." I bought the heritage 1905 style for $340dls, (which are not comfortable at all, not even Robo cop who is made of steel can't wear them) , and they guy who helped me never told me that those were not work boots, when I was so clear telling him that that was my first time using boots, and also I let him know that I wanted the boots for work. He never mention any recommendations for special work's boots. I tried them at the store , and I felt they fitted right; but after an hour that I was out wearing them; they were destroying my ankle. The next day I took them back to the store, and surprise " I can't not exchange them because the policy that I was never informed" I let them in the store for a week to see if the can be stretched, but after the stretch process they still killing my ankle, even after a couple hours that I used them. I escalated the situation with the manager, and she told me that the only thing she can offer me, was to try again the stretch process again, and like 1000 sorry,but that's all she can do. I feel like I just got my money stole , because no body told me about the policy, and I can't wear these boots, so I might have to throw them away. Red wing instead of getting a costumer, you guys lost one. Please be careful with the store return policy, because they are not going to tell you about it, and you might end up throwing in the trash $340dls. read more

Kara gave EXCELLENT service! We spent about an hour in the store she was so patient. Even with the rush of customers she stayed on top of things! The store is AMAZING and highly recommended! read more

Fast service. I called in asking if they had my boots in stock, they did and reserved them for me. I was in and out in less than a minute

So I've been here several times before. I live in the area so it's super convenient over the longevity of my career of needing new work boots every year. I go between here and Urban feet in San Pedro. So since I was close I figured I'd go in get 2 pairs of work boots. I was glad I found parking in front of store and it didn't look crowded. I walked in I saw 3 customers being helped. I didn't walk to look at shoes. I stood at entrance of store thinking that was the waiting area since Covid and I'm accounting for space of others. I literally was there maybe two minutes before a employee who was helping someone tells me you can't be in here and points to the door. You need to leave. You need to go ! I was so thrown off. I didn't cause a stink or even say much I was in shock. It was poor etiquette and customer service. So I leave and I see no line set up outside or waiting area. I literally jump back in my car and leave. It would of been better for someone to just kindly say excuse me we are at our capacity of customers currently. Once we are thru we will come get you. We appreciate your patience. Something reasonably informative and kind. It's just poor business practice. It's disappointing since it's close to me. But clearly there is something missing that this kind of service is the new thing. read more

Just went in this morning. Ready to plunk down 200 bones for safety shoes. I found a pair I liked and the shoe fit well. Sounds good huh? I wondered why both shoes had already been laced properly as the guy helping didnt do it. Oh well, whatever I thought. I then just happened to turn the shoe over and found dirt all over the sole. They were used and the guy was trying to sell them to me as new. NASTY! When I told him his reaction was obvious he knew it. I promptly left. If I want used, I'll go to Goodwill. Ugh...Zero stars! read more

long beach store is great. good sales people and friendly. have had problems at other stores with rude managers not this store however always feel good vibes walking in there. yes availability is not great but all stores are suffering the same supply chain issue. 2 nd time here in long beach . from now on will only go to long beach store. pricey shoes but as longshoremen we spend 60 -70 hrs week on our feet. as with anything u get what u pay for. worth the money read more

Great quality of shoes , pricy, but worth it . We have purchased many boots throughout the past years . Unfortunately the staff at this location isn't as great as the quality of shoes. Dropped off a pair of shoes to get re-stitched ( for the first time ) and the staff was not able to help with the location of boots that I dropped of to be repaired. I was finally able to get in contact with the repair guy myself and he was more than helpful . This location needs better staff . read more
