There are several in-person alternatives. DSW is larger and cleaner than Payless, and also tends to have better brands. They also do a great job with coupons and sales. Kohl’s, the coupon/sale master, also sells shoes. And Nordstrom Rack has a good selection as well. Then there are outlet malls—many brands to choose from. Personally I have felt for a while that DSW was a much better option than Payless.
