Of course there could be a lot of crossover between the sections as one of the major shoe stores in your area may carry all of the above so we will try to mention any time a place is a good option for multiple sections. Many spots here will also sell socks, laces, sole inserts, storage racks, organizers, and other accessories as well if they are what you are after.
