The Shoe Tree

This family-owned shop in Morningside Heights offers seasonal selections from brands like Saucony, Umi and Keds. Shimmering ballet flats from the Jessica Simpson Collection will be just the ticket for fancy parties while picks from Skechers and Robeez from Stride Rite are great for little ones who’d much rather stomp and play than twirl around the dance floor. Keep an ear out for when the new season’s inventory comes in—the store typically slashes prices on the previous season’s inventory.
