Good for The Sole made sure I got the boot I wanted, even though it was not in their store. They went above and beyond for me. They are very lovely people that work there. I am a happy customer 😊BTW, their shoe collection is always on point!

Good for the Sole had such an excellent shoe selection. Their women’s section included casual sneakers, dressier shoes, and boots for fall. They’ve even added a men’s shoe section. I was impressed with the prices and the helpful owners and employees. Thank you GftS!

What a great experience! I’ve been in the store many times before and they are under new ownership and they allow me to even come in on their day off and get me some shoes for my trip to Italy! They are very patient and kind!

Can’t say enough about this place. I’ve shopped there for years. Stopped by ‘right before closing’ to find shoes for an event. Found shoes that were cute but most of all comfortable. #SUPPORTLOCAL

Thank you so much for helping my elderly mother and aunt locate shoes with class and style! She called me stating she wore a pair out - i.e. took off her sneakers (brooks)! We will all be back soon for more! If you are looking for quality and awesome service look no further than Good for the Sole Soles & Accessories!

I was pleasantly surprised to find a pair of Birkenstock Arizona sandals in my size—15M (46) and they are awesome! The owner helped me out, gave me some tips to help with breaking them in, and some maintenance tips to help them last as long as possible. Thanks so much!

Wandered into the neighborhood and happened upon the shoe store. The owner was warm, welcoming and helpful. He even sweetened to pot by giving me an additional markdown on a sale item. I’ll definitely return.

First time visiting! I stopped in while I was waiting for my order from The Gourmet Shop next door. Nice retail store of shoes. The owner said they've been around 15 years! He said they moved to this location about 4 years ago. You also get to meet the Schnauzer who comes to work with him every day. I can't remember his name, right now, but it was Hank or Frank. I also saw a selection of men's shoes too so don't hesitate to stop by!

I can’t say enough good things about this store! I love the range of shoe styles and the incredible customer service. I live in Charleston but spend time visiting family in Columbia, and I never make it downtown without walking out with at least 2 new pairs of shoes! Kelly is such a wonderful person to do business with. I highly recommend.

Wonderful place to shop. Higher end pricing but HIGH quality shoes that are worth the price. Kelly is a wonderful shop owner that is knowledgeable, helpful, and not pushy. The prices are not marked up compared to retailer websites. Currently saving up to get another pair of his wonderful shoes that were out of a college students current price range. Don’t forget to say hey to Hank, his well trained shop dog, he is a sweetie.
