During a month-long trip in China, my ARA shoes carried me very comfortably through big cities, countrysides and villages, through numerous historical sites, and up and down mountains. Superb fit and comfort! And with a little shoe polish they still look new. - Annegret Harnischfeger
Great selection and great staff! I will be back—Please never move! Where have you been all my life? Thank you very much!!!! - Sheryl Kurishy
Hello! I wanted to thank you and your fine staff for all the help you gave my sons over the holidays. I am sure someone remembers them (to me, they are unforgettable young men!). Salamander ordered the Ara pump in burgundy patent for them, in a 7.5. The shoes were a gift for me for Christmas. I was so surprised and I absolutely love the shoes. Teenage boys are probably not your typical customer. My sons told me how helpful your staff was. They were surprised that they didn't get the bum's rush. Thank you for making our Christmas the best one ever! - Sylvia Castle
Thank you, thank you, thank you for the speedy shipment of the Worishofer sandals (I am wearing them already). I have been living in this country for almost 50 years and I have never been able to wear American shoes. That's why I am very thankful that we have Salamander in Chicago. All the best and thank you again, - Irene Hahn
Hello! I ordered online your sexy shoe and it was also on sale. When I received the shoe, I noticed that they were too big, since I lost 15 pounds recently. I called your store and to my disappointment, there were no smaller sizes available. You offered to take the shoes back, but I fell in love with those shoes, so I took them to the shoemaker and he shortened the strap by one inch. Voila, I danced all night! Thank you! - Marian Chodacki
I bought my first pair of Gabor shoes two years ago in Las Vegas and loved them. I searched everywhere in my area for a store that carried them without success. I decided to try to find them on the internet and found Salamander of Chicago. I ordered a pair of shoes and was totally pleased with the purchase and plan to order from them again.
I have bought my Romika Mokasso shoes from you for thirty years. They are the most comfortable. I wear them every day, everywhere. My mother also loves to wear them. Since we moved to Seattle three years ago, I order them online. Your employees are very helpful. Thank you for running your business so efficiently these many years, so I can have access to these wonderful shoes. - Gratefully, Betty Jo Campnell
When I lived in Evanston, IL I always shopped at Salamander. Now I live in Colorado and thanks to the internet, I still shop at Salamander. - Beate S. Block
Romus clog 44508. Wonderful thanks so much! I've been looking for these shoes in a different color since I bought the black pair last fall. They're the most comfortable shoe I've worn since I had foot surgery. I'm thrilled to get them in a different color. - Kris Roque
I purchased my boots from Salamander in 1975. I still wear them. They are not torn yet. Great shoes that last—all you need is to polish them. - John Mikoniw
Although I have previously bought shoes from Salamander online, I made my first visit to the Chicago store on 11-28-08, where I received the finest personalized service I have ever received at a shoe store. Angela, Maria and Paulina surrounded me with big smiles and impressive expertise. Maria spent a great deal of time sweetly educating me on why a particular pair of shoes I wanted did not fit me as perfectly as she would like. This will be a must-stop-by for me on all future trips I make to Chicago. - Sue Holsman, McFarland, WI. (This customer ultimately did find several pairs of well-fitting shoes.)
I could never find shoes because my feet were too long, too narrow and too sensitive. Salamander of Chicago has saved my life—my life outside of my house shoes! - Dr. Geertje Potash-Suhr
