Caleres announced the opening of a new Famous Footwear flagship store at 34th Street and Broadway in New York City on Friday, November 15. This will be the largest of the company’s 32 New York metro area stores.
“Our customer is at the center of everything we do – always – so we spent a long time thinking about the store design and experience that would best serve our customer in this iconic Herald Square location,” said Molly Adams, president of Famous Footwear. “We’ve created a store that’s fun to shop — whether you want to explore and discover something new, or you’re on a mission to get in and out with that perfect pair. We’re looking forward to serving not only our loyal long time New York customers, but the many tourists looking for famous brands, the latest styles, and amazing customer service, all at a great value. There’s nothing like Manhattan shopping, and we’re thrilled to offer New York shoppers the best Famous has to offer with our new flagship store – after all, there’s no better place to make our customers feel a little Famous!”
The two-level, 8,400 square foot flagship store will carry nearly 24,000 pairs of shoes for women, men, and kids from world class, in-demand brands including Nike, Vans, Adidas, Converse, New Balance, Steve Madden, Timberland, Dr. Martens, Skechers, Circus by Sam Edelman, Birkenstock, Crocs, Dr. Scholl’s Shoes, Franco Sarto, Naturalizer, and many more. A full floor will be dedicated to women’s trends and styles, while three brand and trend shops will highlight the newest assortment from key brands. The flagship store will also feature the chain’s largest assortment of accessories, including backpacks, lunch bags, mini bags, fanny packs, socks, and shoe care items.
