Frequently Asked Questions

  • How long can I expect them to last?

    Everyone's experience will be different. With daily use, you can expect your SAS shoes to easily last a year or 2 and sometimes all way up to 10! This varies for everyone, depending on how hard you are on your shoes.

  • The price point seems high. Why is that?

    Our prices look high, but you get what you pay for. SAS uses the best global materials, and our shoes are handcrafted in Texas. These shoes are built to last, and the cost per wear typically ends up lower than a cheap pair of shoes. When the alternative is a pricey doctor visit, $195 starts to look a lot better.

  • What does "SAS" stand for? What's the proper way to pronounce it?

    "SAS" stands for San Antonio Shoemakers™. Sometimes the brand is referred to by its abbreviated name, which is SAS /‘es’a‘es/. While San Antonio Shoemakers™ is preferred over SAS, how our customers say our name is not as important to us as how they enjoy the comfort of our shoes.

  • Where can I find your SAS retail store? I prefer to try on shoes before purchasing.

    We are located in the New Orleans area if you would like to come in.

    We understand the concern of trying on shoes before making a purchase, and our solution is to provide Free Exchanges and Simple Returns.* This way you have the opportunity to try on your new shoes, and send them back if necessary without the hassle of paying shipping fees on your exchange.

    *Final Sale Shoes may not be returned

GREAT SHOES AND SERVICE

I wear a brace that attaches to my SAS alpine that has a steel plate inserted in the sole. This pair has lasted almost 2 years of 16 hour days and shows very little wear! I will never buy any other shoe!!! Oh, and they are the only shoe I can find for narrow feet!! Over $200. Seemed expensive to me, but they are worth every penny!! And I got my order in two days!!

ten years!

I bought a pair of Alpine -- Lace Up Boots in 2016! These are well made and attractive shoes. I remember when I bought them, the cashier at the shoe store remarked how super these shoes were although expensive. They were ideal to wear to work, but also casually. The cushioning on the top of the boot at the back, above the heel, was a little uncomfortable at first, but it softened within a month and was not a problem. These were wonderful shoes, never split between the sole and the upper. The sole is absolutely slip resistant and didn't wear out. Always kept my feet warm and dry. Always polished up beautifully. I admit to having to change the shoelaces one time! I wore them for ten years.
I am currently in the market for new boots because my foot width has widened, and sadly these are no longer comfortable.

Perfect for my trip

I purchased these for my trip to Alaska in July - wanting more than a sneaker and something water resistant. I was very happy with these - comfortable and they look stylish with jeans. I found them to be as comfortable as a sneaker - Alaska can be cool even in summer with a lot of rain - these were perfect. I will be enjoying them as winter footwear in NJ.

Best boots ever

I started with one brown pair which quickly replace about 20 other pairs of shoes. Then I bought a blue pair and then a black pair. I am already saving for the red pair. Honestly they are so comfortable and they are also sturdy while looking good. They have great traction even on icy/snowy ground.

Finally comfort!

I saw a couple of women wearing these boots at the airport and thought they looked so cute on. I figured, if they were wearing them traveling, they had to be comfortable! So I ordered them and they are so very comfortable! I needed something that had very little heel and soft. I wear them with my jeans and skirts. I’m not sure if they are considered a winter snow boot or dress boot, but I was after comfort and they fit the bill. I gave away all my dressy little boots. Please make more shoes and dress boots with lower heels! I cannot even tolerate a 1 inch heel at my age!

So comfortable!

I love wearing boots with my blue jeans. I wear leggings with all my skirts and dresses in the fall and winter because I’m allergic to hosiery. I finally had to give up on wearing any kind of cute boot with a heel. I needed something without any height. I’ve seen so may older women wearing the Gretchen boot, that I decided to try it. These are so comfortable and fit great. I loved the red and blue colors but had to go with black, that goes with everything. I’m wearing these as I would a dressy boot. I only wish they weighed a little less. I haven’t worn them all day yet but they have made such a difference already. I’m very happy with them and would love to find a dressier flat shoe from SAS. Please make a pretty flat shoe for us! I also have wide feet and these boots make my feet look small! Highly recommend!
