Mobley’s Shoes Est. 1950

Mobley’s Shoes has been on Creedmoor Road in north Raleigh a long time. The store opened in 1950 and is marking seventy-five years, which is rare for a shop in one trade, and the line it works by is helping you find your perfect fit.

Staff spend their time on fitting, and the shoes are picked to be comfortable as well as good-looking. That takes a little longer than pulling a box off a shelf yourself, and it is the reason to come in. Customers tend to mention the welcome before anything else.

What to know
