I had won a raffle here for some Jordans and ended up getting to the store at 12:57pm…right before 1pm when they release all shoes that haven’t been picked up by the raffle winner. When I got there the door was locked and there were hella people standing out front. I banged on the door and they motioned to me that it would be one minute. After speaking to the people standing out front I was told they never opened their doors for the raffle winners to come pick up and the workers had been locked up in the shop since the store opened. I waited 30 minutes to see what was going to happen. I saw a short, thin mexican decent man walk up to the door and I could see the worker walking towards the door. So I asked him who he was. He said his name was Rudy Calderone and he was the district store manager. I asked him why the store was locked and informed him that I was a raffle winner who had been waiting to pick up my shoes. He told me all pick-ups had been done. How would he know if he just walked up? The folks standing outside said the mexican chick saves all the shoes for her boyfriend to come pick-up so he can sell them. Bitch!

I called for Black Friday hours and the person on the phone was having a conversation with someone else was super ghetto and rude.

Basically I needed boots for work. I came here to get them and I am still waiting to get them. It has been almost 45 min. A gentleman helped me with the first two boots and they didn’t have my size. Picked out a couple of similar ones and here I am writing the review. The place closes soon. Will I ever get my boots before work tomorrow? At this rate I could have ordered them online and they would get here faster.

Worked a 5th alarm fire across the street from their Mission St. Store, after working for three hours I needed to use a restroom. I went into the store and they told me no I couldn’t use there bathroom because of company policy. My new policy is to not do business with Sheik Shoe store.

Came here on 5÷4÷2014 to pick up some Jordan concord 11s. The staff members were very helpful and made my transaction fast and easy! Nice selection of shoes.

It was close to closing time when I strolled in, and started browsing but I didn’t know it. They let me know the sales going on and then let me browse without me feeling rushed or stalked around the store. I ended up picking out this pair of oxfords that had a flaw in one shoe so I asked her to get a second pair just to see if they were un-flawed. Turns out they had a very similar flaw but on the opposite shoe, so she let me put the two ‘good’ ones together to buy them. Over all great prices, just –1 for the total lack of ambiance in the shop.

After posting my review. I contacted headquarters to make sure they knew about Lidia. And Enrique A. contacted me through email, he was very courteous and helpful. He said he would personally take care of it and also sent me a discount. It’s nice to know someone will talk to her about it and hopefully correct the issues she has. I still won’t go to the Mission store unless necessary…

The past two pairs of shoes I bought from Shiekhs Shoes(downtown) I have had nothing but problems; the first time they didn’t have my size and they wanted to order them personally for me, they said 5 days at most, turned out to be 4 months! Then they didn’t even discount them for me. The second time I bought a pair of boots and about one month later the zipper completely broke, so I called them and they said no receipt, not our problem. I told them I didn’t keep the receipt because I had no intention of returning them. This is the last pair of shoes I will ever buy from them!

I went in there today and the sales people were nice, but the shoes were kinda crappy. The sale shoes were all beat up and looked like they were from a thrift store and they didn’t have my size in any of the few shoes I liked. The downtown one has a way better selection.

This place totally sketches me out… but I got a really cute pair of Lacoste shoes for pretty cheap! They have really ghetto brands including akademiks, pro-keds, roca wear(none of which I would be caught dead wearing!), but they also sell a wide variety of old school Nikes and such. It took them 3 tries to actually find the shoes I wanted in the correct size, first they looked at UK size instead of the US size, then they brought out a box that had one size 7 and one size 5, then finally they brought out the correct box, which was totally covered in dust, but whatever they were pretty cheap! The way they run credit cards is kinda sketch too… they do the old school carbon copy of your credit card, which means your credit card number is floating around their store all day… SKETCH!!! I hope no one steals my credit card number!

Only cuz my uncle runs that joint. I had worked for the one in southland mall for 5 years. great experience but i’m so glad i’m out of there. but the perks of getting good shoes were good. discounts left and right even for you friends. no tax hear and there… watevers. since its gone so big, shiekh’s customers services went down the hill. its because they offer commission to the workers to work their asses off, but they only end up scaring off customers because they are consistently bothered by them.

Pretty good Puma selection, lots of cheesy gangsta wear for punk-ass wanna-be hoodlums, like the dipshits who hang out on the stoop next to my house. My bike was stolen while I was trying on shoes, and since it was after closing, they had locked the front door so I couldn’t catch the motherf$*&er. Trust me, had I apprehended this prick, he would have been fucking dead, from which recovery would have been completely out of the question. Strangely enough, after buying a couple of tacos and nachos from La Taqueria and walking toward home, I saw the asshole riding south on Capp at 25th. Despite my mouthful of chips, I threw my bags down and took off running after the fucknut(in my sweet new black Pumas), yelling for someone to tackle the cuntface so I could beat the living shit out of him and splatter his dumbass worthless brain all over the sidewalk, which I would have done with the help of a nearby cinderblock or large-diameter metal rod, after which I would have dragged his lifeless body thru the streets behind my car to make an example of fucking thieves like this mofo. Friend, you are fucking DEAD if I ever catch you.
