“I shop at Waxbergs Walk Shoppe in Niles on a regular basis. I purchased a pair of HOKA shoes in black about 2 months ago. I signed up to work with Irwin. He provided me an awesome customer service experience! I came into the store because I was having a lot of pain due to my recent development of Plantar Fasciitis. I work at Jewel as a Cashier. I have been being treated by a local Podiatrist for at least 3 years now.”

“I visited Waxbergu2019s for the first time today and was lucky enough to meet Louis. I was looking for a pair of black shoes. He approached me immediately to offer his help. He was knowledgeable and fun to work with. Remember, I went in for a pair of black shoes. I left with 3 pair of shoes and a pair of arch supports. Way to go, Louis!”

“I have problematic feet. But the guys at Waxberg's know their products and were able to put me in a pair of New Balance shoes that corrected my pronation issue, plus they were able to correct another comfort issue (painful pressure at the balls of the feet) with a specific insole. I drive from Cicero to Niles to see these folks and the extra effort is well worth it.”
