"I've been shopping at Little's since I was just a girl looking for school shoes, and in nearly four decades of shopping there I've never been disappointed with the shoes, accessories, or the staff. The selection and quality is superb, and though they are pricey, they are worth every penny ! You get what you pay for, truly, so spending a bit more for comfort and a correct fit is an easy decision for me. I have and still wear a pair of leather penny loafers that I bought there in 1984 !!!\nAlso important to note that the sales associates are wonderful - they make excellent recommendations based on your taste and style, are VERY low-pressure, and have always remembered my name even after just one meeting. And they actually FIT you for the shoes - there are so few shoe stores that do that nowadays I can count them on one hand. Everywhere else is basically \"self-serve\". \nA special mention for store associate Charlene - she knows me well enough now that she'll bring over selections she thinks I'd like based on prior purchases, and damn ! She gets it right every time !!! I have half a dozen pairs from Little's that I love and I owe them all to her excellent taste and ability to read my \"shoe personality\".\nThey also have excellent sales, especially on accessories - my last purchase was a small suede, hot pink Cole-Hahn cross-body bag that was ridiculously cheap - something like 70% off ! If you keep an eye out and bide your time eventually everything goes on sale, so be patient ! \nBonus points as they do expert shoe-stretching - hard to find in Pittsburgh, but they're my go-to place for the shoes that I've inexplicably outgrown...\nFive stars for a true Pittsburgh institution !"^^ . .
