Shoe Pavilion Calls it Quits

Time to head to DSW to buy those ugly Kenneth Cole shoes. See, the Shoe Pavilion, at one time known as the "largest independent off-price footwear retailer on the West Coast," is closing its doors. While the shoe emporium is HQ'd in Sherman Oaks, they have over 25 stores in the Bay Area. This most recent folding comes on the heels (heh) of Hayward-based Mervyns calling it quits. Worse yet, this comes right after Skechers opened another spore in Union Square last Thursday. Seriously, stop with the Sketchers, folks. Because that is some rank footwear. (CBS 5)
