Since most shoe stores in Orlando offer a giant selection of sandals and open-toed shoes year round, it can be challenging to track down something a little ‘out of season.’ Still, you do have options when you need boots, athletic shoes, or a simple pair of casual pumps. Whether you’re looking for dressy or casual shoes this season—or just need to splurge with a shoe shopping trip—here’s where you’ll find some of the best places to shop for women’s shoes in Orlando:
Shou’Ture on Park Avenue
339 Park Avenue South, Winter Park
Head north of Orlando to this specialty women’s shoe boutique in prestigious Winter Park. This shoe store is a ritzy place to try on designer shoes from around the world, and the staff will do everything they can to find ‘the shoe that fits.’ Visiting the boutique is a unique shoe shopping experience in itself, and well worth the visit.
Nine West
8001 S. Orange Blossom Trail, Suite 128 Orlando
You’ll find a few Nine West outlet stores scattered around Orlando’s outlet shopping centers, but the ‘real’ store is just as fun to explore. Round up a few pairs of quality pumps, sandals, and boots for your shoe collection; ‘buy one get one ½ off’ deals are a common event at each location, so plan accordingly.
DSW
375 E. Altamonte Drive, Altamonte Springs
Take a short drive north of Orlando to Altamonte Springs, a suburb of the city that offers even more shopping opportunities. While the Altamonte Mall features the standard lineup of department stores and boutiques, DSW is your place for bargains. Browse the seemingly endless shoe racks to find the perfect pair; you’re sure to leave with at least two or three new additions for your shoe closet.
Shoe Carnival
7649 W. Colonial Drive, Orlando
As the name implies, this is no simple shoe shop. Shoe Carnival is a chain shoe store, and offers a wide selection of designer shoes and accessories. It’s the place for sandals, boots, and dress shoes in all shapes and sizes. If one store doesn’t have your size, they can order it for you in no time flat.
Off Broadway
4664 Millenia Plaza Way, Orlando
Stock up on the basics at this shoe warehouse, another chain that offers a wide selection of shoes and accessories. When you just can’t find those heeled booties, head here for dozens of choices. The store carries hundreds of fashionable styles and brands; you can plan to spend at least half a day browsing this one.
Rack Room Shoes
Orlando Fashion Square Mall, 3201 E. Colonial Drive
When you’re on the hunt for a great bargain, head out to this discount shoe store for athletic shoes, boots, pumps, and sandals. It’s easy to track down odd sizes and choose from a wide range of designer labels that fit your personality. There are a few locations around Orlando, so if you have trouble finding a size, just ask for a special delivery.
Shoe shopping can quickly become an addiction with the sales and special offers available around the city; just pace yourself through your venture and you’ll return home with some great finds!
