What People Are Saying About Johnny Sole

In Short – Beautiful things (and the people to match) wait inside this starkly furnished, bi-level department store. Massive windows along SW Ninth and Alder showcase half the shop's inentory, which includes both shoes and clothing. The shop's two floors are evidence of Johnny's split personality: Shop the lower level for the latest and greatest in high fashion for feet, including many imported Spanish and Italian brands, while Upstairs is now home to clothing and accessories.

Great Store
by okyesmaybe
I love this place, mostly the architecture, it's fun and has two floors, you can always get a dressing room. I've never bought shoes there, they don't seem sexy glam enough for me, more directed towards Portland-weird and functional. Which is fine, this is PDX after all. The people upstairs are always so nice. Tons of styles to choose from. Feels like big city boutique!
- Pros: Location, Selection

Big City Style for Portland
by shoeterboi
I'm a guy who loves shoes. Johnny Sole is the only place to go. Two floors (!!!) of shoes for men and women. Italian. Spanish. Pointy. Square. Boots. Loafers. Camper. Destroy. Kenneth Cole. The lists and descriptions could go on and on! Prices usually range in the $95.-150. area for the footwear i like, although one time i dropped $595. on the coolest square toed Python boots ever. Sales help is not pushy, and they know the product. They have even suggested other places to shop when i could not find what i was looking for; most boutique shops will not do that. Portland is lucky to have a great shoe store called Johnny Sole!
- Pros: mens and womens, super cool styles, reasonable prices
