As Forrest Gump’s mama told him, “You can tell a lot about a person by their shoes,” so let your shoes make a statement during your beach vacation. Outer Banks shoe stores are one place where you choose from a wide selection of shoes, like sandals, sneakers, hiking boots, athletic shoes, skate shoes, boating shoes and more. However you can find shoes in stores that aren’t specifically for footwear. Many surf shops, swimwear stores, consignment stores, boutiques, chain clothing outlets and multipurpose shops that sell clothes, décor and souvenirs also offer a selection of shoes. Surf shops and swimwear stores contain your best chance of finding some sandals or other water shoes for a great price. In boutiques you can browse through trendy footwear that will make you feel like enjoying a night on the town. And if you’re hoping to find some funky shoes that no one else will have, swing by a consignment store to delve into the artsy and vintage garb. Check out our listing below and get excited about some snazzy shoes that are about to stroll into your wardrobe.
