Lewis Bodell started BODELL'S SHOES in March 1959. Since our inception, we have been family owned and operated. Presently, Richard Bodell has taken the reigns of the family business for whom he has worked for over thirty ( 30 ) years. Thus, for over fifty-one-years ( 51 ), our strategy has remained the same: Provide and sell quality shoes with the sizes and widths necessary to provide the maximum success for comfort and fit. We have never wavered from this concept and fifty-one-years ( 51 ) years of success is our foundation. We are shoe people that know our customer and our product and can answer all questions with foreknowledge and past experience what is best for each individual customer. We provide old fashion customer service, informed personnel, and quality product. Moreover, we are not ignorant of the competition, and remain very aware you, the customer, can go anywhere else to purchase your shoes. However, we equally know something of who is not being served presently amongst the shoe buying public ; and what we can provide you to differentiate and preserve your loyalty apart from the competition.

Bodell's is a welcome respite from the schlock scene we suffer in this century. The store is what shoe stores used to be back in the 1940s and 1950s, with the addition of a lot of footwear from...

Excellent business for those with wonky feet - super selection and great staff. Try the Finn Comforts - sold by very few stores. Expensive but wear like iron. I've worn mine two or three...
